Hello everyone new user here, I am building something in Kibana that visualizes spots in certain places on an avatar image. The circle shape does just well for that. My problem is that I need some way to place the circles dynamically based on incoming date through an expression. Any ideas? Thanks in advance! ---

Can you give an example of what you want to happen with the circles dynamically? It's doable using conditional functions to show/hide a circle or change the color of the circle dynamically, but you wouldn't be able to set the position of the circle element on the page dynamically. ---
