How do I display multiple ranges on x axis on a Kibana Graph? ---

If I understand your question correctly, I believe you are looking for something like this: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/2756](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/2756). If so, that isn't currently supported in Kibana but you could use [Timelion](https://www.elastic.co/blog/timelion-timeline), a Kibana plugin, for it instead. If I didn't understand your question, could you please elaborate on it, perhaps with an example? Thanks. ---

I did give Kibana a try. The support that Kibana provided is pretty limited. Is there a way to generate the query criteria using the discover pane? ---

Apologies but I'm not sure I understand. Kibana generates the query criteria automatically based on the visualizations you create and the search query/filters you might specify using the search bar at the top of Kibana: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/9/999509d75eec64262ce981157939d1091b125053.png) Does that help or were you asking about something else? ---

Sorry I meant to say timelion. I have been able to do the offset grapghs with timelion. When I showed it to the users they complained it is too difficult to generate the query pattern. They want an easy graphical interface for generating the query. ---

Ah, gotcha. Yeah, we don't currently have a GUI for generating queries. Feel free to create an issue for an enhancement request in [https://github.com/elastic/timelion/issues](https://github.com/elastic/timelion/issues). Also, pull requests are always welcome 🙂 ---

As per your suggestion I created an issue. "GUI for generating the data source string #157" Any guidance on how the capability can be developed? ---

> Any guidance on how the capability can be developed? As timelion is open-source the capability will get developed by whoever might be sufficiently motivated to build it. This usually requires understanding the codebase and then submitting a pull request to add to it. ---
