Formatting Backgroung

Hi there, I have a line chart where I would like to format the background depending on the x axis. Particularly, I would like to see in a different color the background corresponding to the weekend days (x axis is of course my date field). I have seen that the background can be formatted but it always shows the same color, I would like to have a striped background.

 

Thanks

Hi, @maserr 

You can  try to  create   dynamic  vertical bands   by using area chart  as a background.
