Dashboard using Statistic Pin icon

Hi,

It is easy to get Input vs Time in Dashboard using Statistic Pin icon in FlexSim 2021, but there is no easy way to get Input vs Time in FlexSim 2022 or 2023.

Is there an easy way without using the stats collector?
Will this menu be revived in future version upgrades?
The reason I am asking this question is that many users are not familiar with the stats collector.

The same situation is happening with Min, Max, Avg contents.

The Output per Hour -> Line Chart option in the pin button works with the Sink, and correctly displays the Input value, even though the chart title says "Output". Note that this chart only shows data once per hour by default, so you'll need to change the interval on the chart or run the model for a while to see data.

In version 2022, we updated the pin buttons so that they create charts that are also found in the Dashboard Library. This brings the pin button and dashboard into alignment. However, not every chart available in the pin buttons was found in the dashboard library, and Input vs Time was one of those.
