Tracking Reference Lines: Tableau Quick Tip

[@lstan444]

Thanks for the video this has been an idea that I couldn't figure out. 1 year into Tableau and developing my skills, more videos would help!

Thank you Tim, it was really helpful. I actually made the reference line color to same as that of background color to avoid it from being seen in default view. Editing the Axis and hard-coding the start date didn't look much efficient if the Dashboard is used for live data. Good content

Great stuff, thanks. I had wondered how to achieve this effect. Now I know.....

Hey Tim, it's an awesome video! Just wondering if there's a way to keep the background (not grayed out) while hovering the chart with the reference line? Reason being, I've got the labeling doing the job, and the greying out of other data is not required.
