Hi all,

As we know, sometimes, the field name in data is not user-friendly, we have to give it a more reasonable alias name when it show UI.  
Is there a way of changing the label of x-axis and y-axis in line chart? I am using Kibana 4.1.1.

Thanks

Hi Mark, thanks very much.  
May I know when it will come? 1 week later, 1 month later, or 3 months later?

Thanks
