Is it possible to overlay a "milestone date" onto date-based cards?

TomKelleher

When we show data to our customers like this...

...it would be helpful to overlay it with milestone dates or other significant dates, to put the changes in context. Something like this...

It would be great to maintain lists of these milestones and overlay them onto the data where the dates overlap.

Is this possible?

Hi @TomKelleher, you could use annotations [https://domohelp.domo.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042923974-Adding-Chart-Annotations] to add the list of milestones in with your trends graph.

I would suggest you use the Annotation feature to do this.

Here's the KB article to learn more about it.

Thanks @MarkSnodgrass and @amehdad21 ... this might do it. I would prefer some ability to maintain a database of such events, so that our customers can add them on their own, but this gets us off the ground I think.
