Hi !

I have an issue about timeseries on Timelion, I currently have a timeserie like this below:

 ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/2/2aa69b48b1bc8a2c1b2d485447394b6d14067228.png)

However I wanted to fill gaps between those data, like Kibana already do (even if this is not as readable as in timelion):

I know that an if statement like **_.if(eq, null, 0)_** could be a solution, however I want a continuity between the previous and next data (like Kibana's do).

Could you help me about ?

Hi there, I don't think you can currently configure Timelion to do this. Could you open an issue for adding this as a feature, with these images that you've shared? [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues)

Thanks,  
CJ

Problem solved ! You just have to apply the `.fit()` method (see on [Issue #182](https://github.com/elastic/timelion/issues/182) on Github)
