Some possible use cases:

The Multi Line Chart With Tooltips still has a few more features and a few limitations to bear in mind
- With the "+" icon from the top right corner you can select a time frame by clicking + dragging
- With the arrow icon you see the tooltips when hovering over the lines
- Clicking on a row in the card will filter the lines and the stick. The same is valid when clicking on a row of the stick's card.
- Hovering over a line will highlight it
Limitations
- In order to be able to look at many points over a long timeframe, a sampling is needed. We use the same sampling logic that Microsoft uses for the native line chart. You can learn more about it here.
- The visual works only with a plain date column on the X axis. No monthly, quarterly, yearly aggregations are supported yet. This is on purpose as the visual is intended to look at continuous time series.
Multiple measures can be added in the "Values" field of the visual.
Adding multiple measures in the "Values" filed does not accept a legend and adding a legend does not accept multiple measures.
