I know there is the advanced JSON input for Visualize. How do I implement the same precision\_threshold override in a Timelion Visualize?

Or alternatly is there a way to set the precision\_threshold globally to a particular value.  
Right now I use {"precision\_threshold":1000}..

You can achieve the same result by pinning a filter where you add the `precision_threshold` on a dashboard, where you will display the timeseries visualization.

I am sorry I do not follow what you explained.  
I added {"precision\_threshold": 1000} as a pined filter to my dashboard and all it did was generated errors.

I am using Kibana 4.6.1 is the parameter config change to {"precision\_threshold": 1000} work when added as a pinned filter?
