    Is there a view In Zabbix Frontend which resolves USER MACROS in Problem Expression?

    I started using USER MACROS a lot lately. It's a great feature for advanced Zabbix configuration, but as much as it helps, it makes the configuration a lot less readable.
    A simple example:

    I understand, that the USER MACROS don't get resolved during the template creation, which makes sense. But no later than when a template is linked to a host, there must be a logic that knows, which Global, Template or Host Macro is active. In fact, you are able to resolve all variables in the host configuration and are able to see the inheritance.
    So far, the only way to see a successfully resolved Problem Expression including USER MACROS is the "Event details" page. But I would like to see exactly that without an active problem.

    Did I miss something?

    Probably a little bit overkill but it would be great if there was a page linked to the host that show all macro's and their current value. Make it much easier to insert macro's with the correct values etc

      This page already exists, I don't remember in which version this was added.
