I have a line chart visualization for time series data.
The chart has,
Y axis - metric
X axis - data ascending order and sub bucket with split lines.
So I have line chart with multiple lines.
I would like to show a metadata field in tool tip but that field is not used in the chart.
Is there a way to do this?
Thank you.

This seems interesting feature. Currently its not possible. I would suggest you to file an enhancement request here 🙂
