Hello,

You can look at how it was done in this plugin: [https://github.com/nyurik/kibana-vega-vis](https://github.com/nyurik/kibana-vega-vis) but the gist of it is to get the timefilter from the dependency injector and then call `getRange` on it.

hello marius\_dragomir,

thank you for your response but my problem is not how to access the timefilter inside my controller but how to user directive inside my template and it show the topbar with the range filter on the ui.
