Is there a way to create a pulse function in Timelion? The current behavior is that if I have a function that oscillates between 0 and 1, the chart will display the lines like triangles, meaning that going from 0 to 1 is not immediate. I would like the chart lines to jump from 0 to 1 and vice versa immediately. Is this possible? ---

.lines(steps=true) did the trick 🙂 ---
