When I look at production or electricity stats, I am generally interested in the trend, so I almost always switch to a 1m or 10m selection. It would be awesome if the GUI remembered what I had last set it to, and it would remain on that time-scale after closing and re-opening the window. This would make the behaviour consistent with the selection of production types, which is remembered.
Thank you!

Re: GUI Should remember time selection in production screen
The new production GUI has dropped, and sadly this tweak wasn’t included. Allow me to make another plea.
Personally, I find the default to the previous 5sec to be very annoying. The time range is too short to be useful, and the numbers jump around too much to get an idea of the status of the product I am interested in. So the first thing I do when I open the window -every time- is change the interval to a few minutes or an hour. That way I can see trends and problems at a glance.
My personal preference would be the production GUI to default to 1 or 10m timescale, but preferences vary, so I’d suggest saving the user-selected timescale the same way that user-selected products are saved.
