Hi,

Can conditional logic be added to the TSVB Markdown visualisation?

I saw a post where the Markdown element in a canvas could be conditionally customised by editing the expression.

> Hi I want to use markdown to show custom data on kibana probably in canvas or my dashboard. But I see it only in rectangular shape. Is there a way can change the shape to like the above in image. Or any shape. Do we have the flexibility to enable different background colour for markdown based on some condition I can specify. If yes, Can you guide me where I can.

However I cannot see the same feature available for the TSVB Markdown visualisation.

I'm trying to create a dashboard where i want to conditionally swap icons etc..

Also, HandlebarsJs has only the built in handlebars expressions. It will only test if property exists (or is true etc..).  
`{{#if some-prop}}`

I cannot check if values are: equal to, less than, greater then, etc.. which I need to do.

**Is there any way to add conditional behaviour to the TSVB Markdown visualisation?**

Thanks  
David

hi @david.preston, I don't think you can do this in TSVB. I would log an enhancement here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new)
