Nagios v3 now has multiline plugin output, but from what I can find the only place you can see the detail of it or even discover that multiple lines exist is on the service details screen (refer attachment DetailStatus.jpg). The service summary screen (refer attachment MainStatus.jpg) does not even offer a hint of multiline output.

As I missing something? Is there some configuration I can do?

I realise that each plugin could be rewritten to include something on the first line of output if multiple lines existed (eg "more ....") but this would not nicely integrate with Nagios.

It would be good if there was an icon (like the downtime/acknowledged icons etc) showing that a service result had multiple lines of output at the summary level so that at glance you can tell which detail screens you needed to look at.
