Latest Data -> ... -> Show values as plain text looses time settings
So I was trying to grab some data from one of my items so that I could place it in excel (yes, I realize I could just query the DB, but I'm not admin on this box, and neither are most users). I wen to Monitoring -> Latest Data, selected my host and found the item I wanted data from and selected graph (in this case it was Outgoing Network traffic on eth0). Once on the graph, I moved it to the time frame I wanted, and then changed the drop down in the top right from "Graph" to "Values". My time period went away. So I manually set it on this screen, and then clicked the "as plan text" button. My time period went away. There is no time selection option on this screen, so I backed up, grabbed The time and period from the previous URL ("&stime=200903232115&period=50400") and went forward and added it to the url. I got my data. So the base functionality is there and works well, it just doesn't pass between the views.
Another fun (actually very annoying bit) was that when looking at the initial graph, after I set my time and it loaded, when it auto-refreshed my time selection went away.
