Zabbix version 1.8.5rc1 18086

I noticed a different behaviour between ITEM.VALUE and ITEM.LASTVALUE used in trigger names:

• ITEM.VALUE always shows as the raw value
• ITEM.LASTVALUE is correct in "Last 20 issues" but has the raw value in "Host Status"
  Both are supported in trigger names

More correct situation (trunk rev 20223):
ITEM.VALUE always ignores units, i.e. shown raw value, but in the details of event page (tr_events.php) it expanded always as ITEM.LASTVALUE macro !!! It's serious bug.
ITEM.LASTVALUE uses units well in the all paces (except the details of event page (tr_events.php) ).

1. ITEM.VALUE using the raw value is not documented, so it is not clear whether that is intended behaviour or a bug; this is not really expected, so most likely it should be made to display formatted value in frontend and in notifications (if it's not already);

2. ITEM.VALUE currently does not trim trailing zeroes;

3. non-raw values should also obey ZBX_UNITS_ROUNDOFF_* settings;

4. there should be a way to use raw values. new macro names or some other approach ?

5. all this should be documented

fix for unformatted

all over the 1.8.9 frontend

The fix triggers.inc.php.diff 2011 Dec 27 11:44 work for me in 20 last issues. But the values in the system status remains the problem occurs, values ​​appear with no mapping, no rounding, and show last values ​​like the macro ITEM.LASTVALUE.

I tested in 1.8.7, 1.8.8, 1.8.9 and 1.8.10.

what's system status? it's better if you provide a screenshot, I might look up a solution for this too.

anyways, I just want to mention the problem requires more generic approach that I've choosen in the patch. it's not cool to copypaste the same code in three (or even more) different locations. but that's up to developers - looking up for the changes in 2.x branch.

I added the screenshot showing the problem.

In the last 20 issues the values ​​are mapped but in the system status is not.

I see. Trigger descriptions of these popups are formatted using PHP API, api/classes/class.ctrigger.php. I don't have enough spare time on my hands to fix that.

I suggest creating another ZBXBUG regarding proper value formatting of

,

etc in PHP API functions (if there isn't anything similar already).
