Kicad NGSpice help

Hey, this isn’t a KICAD help really…but I am hoping someone can help with the NGSpice plots. This came about due to a recent topic about simulation. I’d noticed it the simulation but never used it…so that got me interested. So I followed the tutorial here;
http://ngspice.sourceforge.net/ngspice-eeschema.html
Now all went well…except I cannot plot Voltage. All the plots show Gain in db and Phase;

Now I dug out the manual from here;
http://ngspice.sourceforge.net/docs.html
parsed the 631 pages trying to figure out how I would get Kicad to tell Ngspice that I want to see voltage…I am guessing I need to add another text box with a command but I’ve tried stuff and…well not much luck.
Anyone got a link or know where to go from here?

OK finally…my attn to detail wasn’t quite their in setting up the schematic.
In case anyone else has this happen the text comment;
.tran is what gives you voltage and current plots.
.ac is gain and phase.
and of course there is all the other options listed in chapter 15.3 Analyses of the ngspice help manual. (I have to say far too many options for me )
