Hi All, I need to set a constant Background/Legend color in Kibana Metric. As of now we need to set the Range and accordingly color is getting changed. In my Case i dont have Ranges. Since to Set some color, forcefully i am giving Ranges.Because of this color keeps changing as that Range appears. Is there a way i can set a constant Color for Kibana Metric. ---

You would probably have better luck using Time Series Visual Builder metrics, which have this functionality. ---
