I am visualizing quarterly count data using a metrics visualization. Whenever the count for a quarter is zero, the data is excluded from the visualization instead of displaying zero. For example, in the below image, 2018 Q3 count is left out. How can I get this visualization to show 2018 Q3 as zero instead? ![metric%20zero](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/c/1/c190b9da7d603556e2b345c5a38884728aed512b.png) ---

Hello Michiele, I'm not sure that's possible, but for a few workaround options, you might want to look at [this discuss issue](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/visualisations-display-records-with-zero-count/151035). Regards, Aaron ---
