Adding reference line - Line Chart

[#1]

What are the steps of adding vertical reference lines in a line chart? Please help..!!

As far as I know, you can only use the inbuilt reference line function when your x axis is continuous.

Go to Axes and on the bottom half of the options, tick continuous for your axis (assuming you want it to be..!)

Then in the Presentation tab you can choose reference line, add one on the Continuous X Axis and give it an expression like =5 for example, which on a continuous scale from 1-20 would create a reference line at 5.

Hello,

In presentation tab, click on add a reference line.
You can put an expression or a value.

Thanks for the reply. I'm getting continuous x option as disabled. Can you tell me the reason possibly behind it?

Hi,

vertical reference lines are only available for continuous dimension axes, so you have to set your dimension axis properties accordingly:

hope this helps

Thank you so much for the help. But I can't make my dimension axis continuous as I'm representing dates as my dimension which are take from an excel sheet and are not continuous.

Is it still possible to define some vertical reference lines at some of the selected dates?

Thanks and Regards

Hi,

maybe using a combo chart instead of a line chart and creating a narrow bar at a specific date using some flag.

hope this helps
