When you customize an X-Axis Label for a Date Histogram, you loose the "per [interval]" as noted on the generic label. Are there replacement variables or parms that can be put on the custom label to include this information?

Hi David,

I found there is an issue asking for that feature; [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/6431](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/6431)

Feel free to comment or +1 it.

Regards,  
Lee
