Hi i am using checkboxes module with sideview. I have to pass the values that i select in checkbox drand display graph for that. If i select "%_Processor_Time" then i should get graph displaying avg(%_Processor_Time). If i select two option like %_Processor_Time and %_DPC_Time then graph should get displayed for both.

For now the the query is getting passed like this.

search index=winserver_perf sourcetype="PerfmonMk:Processor" host="adwas1701" | timechart avg(Avg(%_Processor_Time))

If i select two option in checkbox then query looks like this.

index=winserver_perf sourcetype="PerfmonMk:Processor" host="adwas1701" | timechart avg(Avg(%_Processor_Time),Avg(%_DPC_Time))

There are two avg's getting passed in query. I dunno how to remove that.

                  <module name="Checkboxes" layoutPanel="panel_row2_col2">
        <param name="name">column</param>
        <param name="valueField">column</param>
        <param name="labelField">label</param>
        <param name="separator">,</param> 
        <param name="template">Avg($value$)</param>
        <param name="outerTemplate">$value$</param>  


                <module name="Search" layoutPanel="panel_row2_col1" autoRun="False">
                  <param name="search"> index=winserver_perf sourcetype="PerfmonMk:$sourcetype$" host="$host$"  | timechart avg($column$) </param>
                  <module name="JobProgressIndicator" /> 
                 <module name="ValueSetter" >

Remove the avg() around your $column$ in the search.

As it is now, you have two avg() wrapped inside each other. One is here:

... | timechart avg($column$) 

And the other is here:

<param name="template">Avg($value$)</param>

Resulting in this:

| timechart avg(Avg(%_Processor_Time),Avg(%_DPC_Time))

What you want is this:

... | timechart $column$

and this:

<param name="template">avg($value$)</param>

Resulting in this:

| timechart avg(%_Processor_Time),avg(%_DPC_Time)

If i remove the Avg() then its showing error as func() is needed for timechart.
