Subject: History plots deceiving users into thinking data is still logging 
I have been trying to fix this myself but my javascript isn't strong... The 'new' history plot render fills in missing data with the last ODB value (even when this value is very old... elog:2180/1 shows this... The data logging stopped, but the history plot can fool users into thinking data is logging (The export button generates CSVs with entires every 10 seconds also). Grepping through the history files behind the scenes, I found only one match for an example variable from this plot, so it looks like there are no entries after March 24th (although I may be mistaken, I've not studied the history files data structure in detail), ie this is a artifact from the mhistory.js rather than the mlogger... Have I missed something simple? Would it be possible to not draw the line if there are no datapoints in a significant time? Or maybe render a dashed line that doesn't export to CSV? Thanks in advance Edit, I see certificate errors this forum and I think its preventing my upload an image... inlining it into the text here:
