Hi!

I have the data (coordinates) for drawing something similar to the image, but I don't know if is there any functionality for drawing it in Kibana (in a dashboard or canvas). Could anyone explain if it is possible?

Thanks a lot!

It depends on what your data looks like. It may be possible to plot something similar in Canvas, but only solid lines are available in the Canvas plot element. Can you provide an example of your data?

Hi @Catherine_Liu!

Solid lines are perfect for me. Actually I only need it (the updated image has only solid lines). I don't receive the data yet, but the structure of the data is very preliminary and we could adapt for drawing it.

What data structure I would need?  
And what functionality of canvas I should use?
