I get it TJ. Sure I know the difference between scaler and array.

And I understand that AB provides Basic, Intermediate and Advanced
User functionality. Admittedly, unless I am really motivated, I am
often just plain too lazy to dig into the 'Advanced' area of coding.
In other words, some ideas simply don't merit the effort required to
implement them as an individual user.

So when I read a post about a desired feature from someone else that
makes sense to me, then I'll join in and express the an opinion about
a possible AB enhancement that might be of value to a larger audience.

And in the future I won't be surprised to receive a response from you
about "Advanced User Functionality" being an appropriate solution to
any given problem. Won't offend me in the least. But you deserve to
know when more than one Customer thinks a feature might be of value
and enhance AB's value.

With great respect and best regards.

Horizontal plots of each performance metric could be presented against
a "good / bad scale" defined in the form of a Param value for each
performance metric that the User could alter from a base set of
default values. Of course the gradient colors of the plots would go
from red (bad) to green (good).
