i have a time series data set, over which i want to impose region annotations what i mean is my annotations are nothing but events having start time and an end time. the visualisation feature i m looking for is that for a given annotation an entire region should be marked starting from the event start time till its end time

Hey @aman_pcs the closest thing that is currently possible is to use "two" annotations in Time Series Visual Builder similar to the following:

Thanks anyway!!!

Ah, gotcha, feel free to open up a [feature request](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Feature_request.md) in GitHub for what you'd like to see added, and we'll prioritize it with our other requests.
