Events per

This determines the intervals at which event counts are totaled totalled and plotted on the timeline. When you hover over the timeline, tooltips appear reporting event totals. The points along the timeline are determined by the Events per set. Auto sets the interval based on the query's current time range. Use this setting if you want to plot event counts at a specific interval.

Logarithmic scale

This applies a logarithmic scale to the y-axis of the timeline chart instead of the default scale, which uses uniform intervals of units. This can be especially helpful when outlying data is causing significant spikes or dives, distorting your ability to visualize the detail of the timeline.

Full counts

This toggle appears after applying a filter to your data. When your data is filtered, the green line automatically adjusts to represent the number of events with the filter applied. Activate this toggle to display a comparison between the count of filtered events (green line) and the full count of events (yellow line).

Get server counts

This button appears after applying a filter to your data. Select it to plot the real count of events in the timeline after applying a filter.

When you apply a filter, segments of the timeline may appear as dotted lines, indicating that the counts are actually estimated values for those subintervals that have not been downloaded to the browser. Click this button to obtain the actual counts for the dotted segments. The line will change from dotted to continuous.

Note that this doesn’t mean the actual events are downloaded to the browser, just that the real event count is reflected in the timeline.
