    Direct entering the date and time like old versions

    Is there a possibility to avoid the small popup window to set the startdate of screens? In older versions, one could very easily enter a date and time in the format YYYYMMDDHHMM. This worked very quickly when investigating a problem.
    Although I understand the popup as there is now could be good for new users, one loses the speed.
    Don't know if this is a firefox issue, but I also have to use the up and down arrows to set the values: entering digits directly does not work.

    Regards,

    Geert

    I also miss typing the timestamp you want.

    By the way you can use the scroll bar under the graph to move around. Not as precise as timestamp input but it can help you move quite fast.

      Indeed, but I find it quit difficult to get it positioned right where you want it :-)
      On the other hand, maybe I'm stuck in my old command line habbits :-)
