i have a document that looks like this:

{  
"met1" : {  
"name" : "my.long.name",  
"value" : 30,  
"ts" : 1397077225000,  
"tags" : {  
"host" : "hostname"  
}  
},  
"met2" : {  
"name" : "my.long.othername",  
"value" : 300,  
"ts" : 1397077225000,  
"tags" : {  
"host" : "hostname"  
}  
},  
"met3" : {  
"name" : "my.long.other",  
"value" : 1,  
"ts" : 1397077285000,  
"tags" : {  
"host" : "hostname"  
}  
}  
}

is there a way i can set up kibana so that when i query "met1",  
it will graph that data then when i query "met2"  
it will graph than without having to do more than change the query

Thanks,  
Kevin
