Hi, I use a trend line visualization to trend different values over time. I have set the size to 5, but the legend shows more entries than just the top 5. See attached screenshot. Shouldn't the size property limit it to just 5? ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/6/6ed266cf13638ed384303626d4aab27e70a6455e.png) Kind regards, Peter ---

Try splitting the lines and then doing a date histogram after that? ---
