Mark values in Diagram

Hi,

so I have a Bargraph with many values. The enduser who has to use that bargraph needs to see if the values are over or under certain values at some point. Thats why I want to draw a line at both the max allowed value and the min needed value. I attached a picture of how I want it to look. Is it possible to achieve something like this?

I believe you are trying to add threshold values to your Column chart. If so please try in adding the threshold limits via eval . And add them as chart overlays as shown below

index=_internal sourcetype=splunk* | stats count by sourcetype | eval lower_threshold = 400 | eval higher_threshold = 6000

Hi again,

I now managed to show these thresholds in my chart. There is one Problem: I need the threshold on the X Axis not on the Y Axis(as I showed in the picture in my initial post above). Is there a way to do that?

Thanks for the reply,

this seems to be exactly what I need, but I am not able to achieve the same result as you with my chart. I want to show just the value of one particular field and how often the different values exist. I do this via the pivot Tool. I cant find the Overlay option. DoI have to use the eval command?
