I need in the graphical burndown to appear the value of the points of each subtask created within a History.

Because I have several histories with many subtasks and not being displayed in the graph the subtasks points when completed.

 

Can someone help me please?

Tks

This is wrong, so you can't do it.

When you take a story into a sprint, you are saying "we will complete this during the sprint".  Burn-down is based on completion of what you committed to, not parts of it.  So it's nonsense to have a sub-task count.  Either the story is done (points burn down) or it is not (points are not burned down).

There are uses for points on sub-tasks, but because they're irrelevant to burn-down, even if you found/wrote code to sum them up to their parents and/or get them into other reports, they're still useless to a burn-down chart.
