Question
Better handling of zero values in reports 2.0
Our (mixpanel) usage data uses the mixpanel connector to go into the MDA. When building reports there is currently a really frustrating/misleading behavior in which where there are 'zero events' the period for which there are no events is effectively removed from the date axis.
The outcome of this is where a client that had high usage in January (say 1000 login events) . zero usage in February & high (1000 logins) usage in March for the usage chart to be a flat line, that skips from January to March on the date axis. Where date ranges are longer (say we look at a 6 month trend) it can be really hard to even spot that a date rage is missing, so this is even more problematic. Would love better handling of zero events.
