Hello everyone, I would like to ask if somebody knows a way to add text boxes or text inputs into the Vega's visualisations. Is it possible?, I'm desiring to add a text box or filter field in a Vega scatter plot line graph to depict only specific dates.

If you have an idea, would you mind let it me know?

Thanks so much,

JUAN DAVID BRICENO GUERRERO

Yes, this is possible - see a simple example here:

> The Vega editor is a web application for authoring and testing Vega and Vega-Lite visualizations. It includes a number of example specifications that showcase both the visual encodings and interaction techniques.

By typing in `USA`, `Europe` or `Japan`, it will grey out data points not matching.
