Hi! I am one of the teammates of @Psyduck100 in the study group at UTSC, and we’re planning to work on this issue together. Here are a few additional notes on what we have in mind. We’d welcome any feedback or further discussion! A few additional notes on scope and interaction: **1. Sum first, with room for simple statistical operations** The initial implementation will support **Sum only**, combining the selected series at each matching x-axis value. A small set of other simple statistic operations, such as mean, minimum, maximum, median, or standard deviation, could be considered later, subject to community feedback. These would not be part of the initial scope. Any additional operations would work across the selected series’ returned values at each x-axis point. The goal is **quick, lightweight** exploration; complex statistical calculations are outside this feature’s scope. **2. Simple and responsive interaction** Following the original request, we aim to let users select a few series and view a combined result with just a few clicks—ideally **2–3 clicks for a simple case**—with an intuitive way to undo the combination. The calculations should remain lightweight, with a goal of no perceptible delay for typical chart sizes. We would validate responsiveness during implementation. **3. Frontend-only, temporary results** The operation will use data already loaded into the chart, without additional backend requests or changes to SQL, datasets, or metric definitions. Combined results will be temporary and will not be saved to the chart or dashboard. Users can remove the combined result through **Ungroup**. We also propose resetting temporary combinations when the underlying query data or series definitions change. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
