How to create static baseline on chart without showing data for baseline

arusoft

I created a baseline by adding eval field as shown below:

| eval BaseLine=1000|fields
_time, ResponeTime, BaseLine

I then have resulted as a column chart and also have formatted to "Show Data Values" on. I have Barchart for Response time field and then have Chart Overlay for Baseline field so that it shows a horizontal line.

The problem is that the Baseline show data too which I don't want. I just want a horizontal line without data.

Please advise if this is possible?
Thank You.

@arusoft you can check out one of my older answers for hiding chart data label through CSS override: https://answers.splunk.com/answers/610389/how-to-display-values-only-for-chart-overlay-field.html

Following is a run anywhere example based on the sample data provided and your use case. Between Baseline and ResponseTime fields Baseline will be first series as per series sorting (i.e. .highcharts-series-1). So following CSS override can be applied where myChartWithHiddenDataLabelForFirstSeries is the ID of the chart where it is applied:

  <html depends="$alwaysHideCSSPanel$">
    <style>
     #myChartWithHiddenDataLabelForFirstSeries .highcharts-series-1 .highcharts-data-label text tspan 
     {
       visibility:hidden !important;
     }
    </style>
  </html>

alt text

Please try out the complete Simple XML example and confirm:

<dashboard>
  <label>Chart With Hidden Data Label</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <html depends="$alwaysHideCSSPanel$">
        <style>
         #myChartWithHiddenDataLabelForFirstSeries .highcharts-series-1 .highcharts-data-label text tspan 
         {
           visibility:hidden !important;
         }
