Add offset options

I'd like the ability to configure offsets so that 1) my Views are consistently run for the same time intervals (important for statistical calculations) and 2) I can stagger the publishing of my Views to improve performance. If I were publishing a relative Continuous View with Start: *-10m to End: * and my goal publishing period were to be something like 08:40 to 08:50-- For the first, I envision this similar to interface scan class offsets. I'd like to schedule an offset so the View runs every ten minutes but must start at 00:00. This would help avoid accidentally clicking "Publish" and winding up with data that goes from 08:43 to 08:53 instead of the desired 08:40 to 08:50 and generally allow for more consistency for publishing times. For the second, I envision this like Asset Analytics offsets. So if I schedule an offset so the View runs every ten minutes but must start at 03:00 to stagger the publishing of Views, I could apply a relative timestamp of *-3m so I still get the desired 08:40 to 08:50 period.

    Thanks for sharing your feedback on the PI Integrator. After review, we have decided to decline this idea for now, as our current engineering efforts are focused on cementing product stability and reliability, and we don't expect that we'll be able to prioritize this idea in a reasonable time period. You may have recently noticed that a number of ideas on our feedback site have been marked as “Declined”. While many of these ideas are great and valuable suggestions, we need to be more diligent about recognizing our development priorities and communicating back to those users when we realize we won't be able to act on something. We are currently working through a large effort to clean our feedback forums up and provide "Declined" statuses where we recognize that we won't be working on an idea in a reasonable timeframe. This effort spans across all of our products and will help us improve the transparency, usability, and sustainability of our feedback forums. If an idea that was declined is critical for your operations, please let us know by adding a comment on the idea.
