I'm looking to bind a tag value to line color of a column in the chart, BUT I need the color to not update as the value changes.
For example, let's say I add a transform that that sets the color to green when value range is [10,12] and red otherwise.
The problem I have now is that when the value is less than 10 or more than 12, the whole line turns red. I only want the portions of the line to be red during the times when outside of the numeric range.
To summarize, I need multiple colors on a single line on the chart.
Thanks.
Take a screengrab of what you've got, highlight the problem and mark up what you want. picture >> words

If you haven't got a suitable program then for Windows I recommend Greenshot.
In this example, want the purple line to be red but only during the times when the value is let's say greater than 11.83 or less than 11.82
I don't think that's possible with the Time Series Chart component on a single trend.
I recommend that you plot the control limits as separate plots. You just need two points for each - the leftmost and rightmost timestamps and limit value.
Ok. Thanks for looking into it. I'm new to Ignition, and learning as I go, so when I really get stuck, I lean on the forums.
