Set the following values for every vertical object you want to show in the chart. If you need to edit an object you have already added then select it in the list, edit its setting and press Update.
Without pressing Update the data will not be actualized.

 

Type
Choose line or band.

 

Position
Enter the position of the object (line) or the beginning of the object (band). The value must be typed in the format shown in the legend.

 

Frequency
If you want to repeat the object across the whole chart in fixed intervals then enter the distance between two succeeding objects. Keep it empty if you want to show the object only once.

 

Width (bands)
Enter the thickness of the band. If you for example want to create bands that mark weekends, enter 2.0:0:0 or only 2 (hours, minutes and seconds will be set to zero automatically).

 

Thickness (line)
Enter the line thickness.

 

Color
Enter the line color or background color of bands.

 

Line type (line)
Enter the line type.

 

Opacity (band)
Enter the opacity of the background color of bands.

 

Zero value (band)
When this option is checked then the value on Y-axis is set to the minimum at positions of bands. The minimal value equals zero unless the start time is specified. In this case it equals the start time.
