Hi @Anonymous

It's not clear from your question if you're using a core line chart or developing your own visual? If a core line chart, there's currently no known functionality for this.

If you're developing a custom visual, then provided you were including your annotations in the visual's data roles & data view and handling accordingly, then yes, but we'd ideally need insight into your visual code if you're looking to implement this and need some help. Of course. if you're embedding Highcharts into your visual already, then the example you've provided would be reasonably portable.

Regards,

Daniel
