Timechart zoom in/out similar to the flashtimeline module

For Java GC logs, which deliever events in milisecond steps, we would like to build a dashboard with a graph where you can zoom in. Is there a possibility to add zooming functionality to a timechart? It should be similar to the zoom in/out possibilities in the standard search view.

This function is realy missing for a good monitoring tool...

I've found two libraries that could help : http://www.flotcharts.org/flot/examples/zooming/index.html http://www.fusioncharts.com

http://www.highcharts.com/demo/line-time-series
http://dygraphs.com/

I hope Splunk will integrate something similar very soon.

Thats the wrong one, it should be " Sideview Utils (free internal use license)"

Is Sideviews thinking about implementing a way to zoom in charts ?
Could you add the Sideviews tag to the first post, to have Sideviews LLC answer that question ?

Hey,

I'm working on the same things--zooming in on a flash timeline. I'm working right now in the advanced XML to do a custom drilldown. (Look for "custom drilldown" in Splunk's documentation.) There are a couple of answers here: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Developer/TableChartDrilldown

If you find the answer first, let me know! 😄

Good luck!
