    When you want to have a look at a longer timespan with lots of data, it might get difficult to visualize the detail of the values of each individual point since the lines that connect each point are hirering the individual points. By using small points (size could be configurable) you can see the cloud of points and therefore visualy understand where the values are positioned on your trend. Thickness of the line between points, when used, could also be configurable.

    We would like to have option to have Dots instead of line for charts like in process book. When you are comparing lab data it is better all our users are requesting dots for labs. Example in attachment

    Currently, trends will always interpolate between stored events to produce as much of a continuous line as possible. However, it can be useful to see only the stored events. This can help users identify gaps in data or over-collection of data. Seeing individual events is also useful in cases where the stored events represent real-life events (e.g. the rejection of a defective product) or manually logged values. Please add an option to plot only stored events on a trend. The same graph should be produced regardless of the value of the PI Point's Step attribute. Each event should be represented by a line stemming from the time axis, similar to Fourier transform graphs, to make events easier to find and the time gap between events easier to judge compared to having only a dot for each event.
