Kibana : How to dissociate a visualization from timepicker

I have a Kibana dashboard with some visualizations and each visualization changes when i change the time window. Is there a way to display a visualization that does not change and stays fixed? For example, i want to display the total number of records present in my index. Now i have this in a nice dashboard. I only want this number to change if the actual number of records changes. Otherwise, I want it fixed. Is that possible?

You can use a second index pattern for that. It is a kinda hackish solution but it works.

  1. Create a new index pattern. Configure it just like your regular one, but uncheck "contains time-based events". This way you will get an index pattern where the time picker doesn't apply.
  2. Create your visualization from this second index pattern.
  3. In case you want a certain fixed time range to apply: Add the time range as a normal filter in the query for this visualization.
