Highlighting or indicating a data point in a lineChartField based on X axis value

I have a scenario where I need to somehow indicate in a lineChartField when a specific value on the X axis is selected.  Basically I need a chartReferenceLine, but on the X axis.  I have attached a photo as an example.

  • Hello!

    Have you thought of using a fake distribution? one chart series that is 0 everywhere except on the x values required?

    It could work in your case because you seem to have a lot of values and your distribution start at 0

    Tell me if it could work, else i will think of something else

    Hi Gabriele 

    for your idea not able to have a straight vertical line

  • Hi Gabriele, this works to a certain extent.  I have created a couple fake distributions to show a few data points where each line should be.  Is there any way to have the chart draw a vertical line, or set the icon for different chart series to to be the same icon? 

  • I agree, I have not been able to create a straight line

  • What do you mean by "same icon"?

  • I mean that if I use an additional two chartseries to show where a selected data point is on the x axis, those two chart series have different icons.  For example in this screenshot, I am using two chart series to display 1 x axis value.  Is there any way to make the two green dots be the same icon (both a circle or square for example)?
