How to specify SplitMode using simple form XML

Hi there,

I can create a line graph with SplitMode, however there is no configuration guide for manually adding XML tag for SplitMode configuration.

Do to this, do I have to use advanced XML instead with simple form XML? Can I do like the following XML to set SplitMode?

sourcetype=resusage | timechart avg(CPU_Per) avg(MEM_Per) avg(DISK_Per) Resource Usage Trend @mon +1mon@mon line split all

Thanks!

Looks like an omission in the docs, but I think it should be

<option name="charting.layout.splitSeries">true</option>

splits into multiple charts, while false is the default and combines it into one.
