Hi, is it possible put a grid as background of a line / area chart in kibana 5 like it was in kibana 3?  
Thanks, Andreas

Hi Andreas,

Currently this is not possible but it should be coming very soon! There's already [a GitHub issue](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/5747) for this request and it looks like it is being [actively worked on](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/9642) by a developer.

Cheers,

Shaunak
