Trend: Statistics between cursors

When adding multiple cursors to a trend, have a way to show the statistics (delta/min/max/avg/duration) between the two cursors so that a user can easily understand what happens during the cursor times.

    When analysing trends, there can be times to compare or summarise the period between them, as in investigating process upsets or optimization opportunities.

    There should be a way to select the cursors, and the associated stats show in a tabular format e.g. under the trend's x axis label.

    Process engineers, operators and I&C (Instrumentation and Controls) engineers are those who stand to benefit the most, as users.

    The Deltas could have also percentage change in brackets: (+/-%) with Green colour for positive and Red for negative change (or other colour-blindness equivalent set of colours)

    This feature was in Wonderware ActiveFactory Trends. We recently migrated to PI & are using PI Vision, it sure would be nice to see the feature brought over as Aveva owns both PI and Wonderware.
