Graph Line Style Removed?
I've been away from loadUI for a while (haven't really used it since just before the big 2.5 release when raw export got paywalled) and just now have come back. Did the ability to stylize the lines in the graphs on the Statistics Workbench get removed, or paywalled, or something? It was really helpful to be able to change the style and color and made the graphs a lot more readable. The apparent first-come-first-serve behavior it has now means you can't make logical correlations between graph lines and metrics (ex Total failures in blue, failures/sec in light blue). Not to mention all the lines looking exactly the same (vs being able to make some dashed or thicker so they were easily recognizable). This feature was explicitly called out back in the 1.5 release ("Highly interactive charts" so to remove it seems strange.
In fact, the whole Statistics Workbench seems a lot less usable and intuitive now compared to before (or maybe my memory is bad. I'll have to drag out my old laptop that still has pre-FX2 on it and see...) Dragging a whole component just to add another stat for that component? Why not just have something on that component graph window (that already exists)? Grabbing and dragging the whole component over again implies there will be copies of that component's window.
