I have dashboard with several visualizations like the one below across different fields.  
How do I create vertical cursor line synchronized across all visualizations with tooltip showing exact time?  
I saw it somewhere before, but don’t remember where...

```auto
Metrics 
	Y-Axis: Count

Buckets:
	Split series:
		Aggregation: Terms
		Field: Some field
		Order by: metric Count

	X-Axis:
		Sub Aggregation: Date histogram
		Field: timestamp
		Interval: Auto
```

Hi,

What is "vertical cursor line" here? Are you talking about current time marker? The red line here in this screenshot is the current time marker.

Thanks,

It's turned on by default for all dashboard timelion visualizations.  
How do I enable it for others visualizations on same dashboard? 😊
