Event Comparison Display - add trend configuration options
Currently, Event Comparison trend has 0 configuration options. I need to be able to: show markers, hide trendlines, set x and y scales, zoom in/out, expand trend to fill screen, set color schemes (running, completed, recently completed). All things that BatchView BatchTrend in ProcessBook can do! We can't move to Event Frame Comparison Trends in PI Vision until many of these items are added.

Event Comparison Display: Allow scale configuration
There is no ability to configure the Y-axis scales on the event comparison displays (database, autorange, custom). If there is an outlier value it can make the chart too compressed to see useful data.

Event Comparison: Freehand zoom on event frame overlay
It is currently possible to zoom in on event frame comparison using child event frames, but you cannot zoom in into an arbitrary location on a trend by dragging the mouse cursor.

Export event frame data to CSV from event details and comparison displays
From the event details or event comparison displays in PI Vision, it would be useful to export event frame data (including attributes and values) to CSV/XML.

Event Gantt: Visualize Child Events on Parent Event Gantt Bar
On the event gantt chart, have the ability to show lines/time markers for the child events in the parent event gantt bar when not expanded. This way the user doesn't need to expand the gantt to get an idea of when the children occurred.

Event Gantt: Expand All and Collapse All Events
Add the ability to expand all/collapse all in the event gantt chart.

Multiple Traces on Overlay Trend
Ability to put multiple traces (like flow and temperature) on a single overlay trend, still with showing data from multiple events/ batches or comparison against golden batch/events.

PI Vision Event frames should show child elements in the Attributes panel of the Events comparison page.
When viewing event comparisons, the Attributes pane only lists the event frame attributes, the referenced element, and the referenced element's attributes. It currently cannot drill down and trend child element's attributes.

Display single result of Event Frame attributes that are calculations (Average, Total, etc.) instead of underlying tag data
When there is an Event Frame attribute that is calculated, i.e. the attribute has a “By Time Range” Value retrieval method of Total, Average, Maximum, Minimum, etc., PI System Explorer shows a single value for this Event Frame Attribute. In PI Vision displays, however, the underlying time-series tag data are displayed instead of the calculation result. I would like to view the calculated value instead of the underlying tag’s time series data in order to be able to compare values from different Event Frames.

Event Gantt: Better Displaying of Deep Events
For events with lots of children, do not show each child event on their own row on the Gantt Chart because it takes up a lot of vertical space for Events that have lots of children. Instead only go to a new row if the events overlap in time.

Drop-down list of available Event Frame comments in PI Vision
When an Event Frame is selected in Events Comparison Displays, the user should see a drop-down list instead of or in addition to the "Add Comment" text box.
This drop-down list should include possible comments (configured in the EF templates) that the user might select and add to the event.

Use check boxes to select which Events to Compare
As an end user, when going from related Events to the Compare Events page, I would like to see a check box which allows me to select which items to compare in the overlay trends.

Event Frame Comparison Hide Multiple Event Quickly
Currently in the event frame comparison page, you can hide event frames from trends by right-clicking on the event frame and selecting the hide option.
It should be easier to hide events quickly: Optimize the way events can be hidden or provide the ability to hide multiple event frames in one go instead of one at a time.

Event Frame Comparison Maximize Trend
Provide the ability to maximize/minimize trends in the Event Frame Comparison page.

Events Comparison: Configure via URL parameters
Allow configuring event comparison displays in an ad hoc way so that the search criteria and the attributes shown can be set through URL parameters.
For example: As an operator, I would like to receive email notifications with hyperlink URL pointing to the correct Events Comparison display, along with configurable search criteria.
The same automation could be used in an iFrame inside a 3rd party application to open (inside the iFrame in Kiosk mode of course) a related and contextualized Events Comparison display with targeted search criterias or using a simple mouse-over.10 votes -
Event Comparison: Add ability to set time range / end time (X-axis)
Sometimes there are very long event frames in the event comparison and it would be nice to be able to set the width of the x-axis to cut these event frames off at a certain duration. It's inconvenient to have to manually exclude them, and sometimes one still wants to look at long and short event frames in the same display.

Multiple Trace Colors for Pinned Event Frames
If there are multiple pinned event frames in a Event Frame Comparison Display, each pinned trace should have a different color

Show Date and Time Stamps When Comparing Similar Events
When comparing similar events, add functionality to see not only the relative time since the batch began but also the exact date and time as you click around the trend.

Plot summary profile of all Events in Event Comparison
I would like the option to plot summary calculation profiles (average, maximum, minimum of all the Event Frames currently in my Event Comparison) in order to compare each Event Frame to the average of the included Event Frames, i.e. if I have 10 event frames then I would like to display the concentration over time for each individual Event Frame (10 profiles) as well as the average concentration profile of all the event frames (1 profile). This is somewhat like a golden batch but is a statistically manufactured plot as opposed to being from a golden run.
