I'm looking to create a chart in perspective that will support multiple marker zones akin to how the desired range works in the sparkline chart.  
Data will be coming from

I couldn't find a way to utilize the sparkline chart in this way as it only seemed to support a single zone, and the closest I could find for the Timeseries chart was to use a very thick line marker.

Below is an example of what I'm looking to do for the "zones".

The data will originate from SQL, not a tag historian. Im not sure if the powerchart will be able to work in this case.  
Id appreciate any tips on how to achieve this effect within perspective.

Use the [DB Table Historian Provider](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/DB+Table+Historian+Provider) for this case.

That looks like it could work, is the Powerchart the best option for being able to display band markers like this then?
