I have a weekly index of the form [events-]YYYY.W against which I am trying to plot graphs over Kibana (Kibana 3). [https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-6eFxAe8T4SE/VKqgpv2-KFI/AAAAAAAAEu4/gt8XJJmQ1RI/s1600/ES-5.png](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-6eFxAe8T4SE/VKqgpv2-KFI/AAAAAAAAEu4/gt8XJJmQ1RI/s1600/ES-5.png) On querying for last 1 week of data, the indexes are chosen wrongly. As per the below diagram, the index that is chosen is '_events-2014.1_' instead of '_events-2015.1_' resulting the graph to have missing information of the index '_events-2015.1_' [https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-Vztz-Ggguvc/VKqfTfWSh3I/AAAAAAAAEus/nMuNNhKvd6s/s1600/ES-4.png](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-Vztz-Ggguvc/VKqfTfWSh3I/AAAAAAAAEus/nMuNNhKvd6s/s1600/ES-4.png) On changing the 'Timestamping' from week --\> day, the indexes are chosen correctly. What might be the issue, am I doing anything wrong? Will that be fine to make the 'Timestamping' value to day, and things works perfectly?
