### Null values
### Connect null values
Choose how null values (gaps in the data) are displayed on the graph.
Choose how null values (gaps in the data) are displayed on the graph. Null values can be connected to form a continuous line or, optionally, set a threshold above which gaps in the data should no longer be connected.
#### Gaps
![Image name](/static/img/docs/time-series-panel/connect-null-values-8-0.png)
If there is a gap in the series, the line in the graph will be broken and show the gap.
#### Never
![Null values gaps example](/static/img/docs/time-series-panel/line-graph-null-gaps-7-4.png)
Time series data points with gaps in the the data are never connected.
#### Connected
#### Always
If there is a gap in the series, the line will skip the gap and connect to the next non-null value.
Time series data points with gaps in the the data are always connected.

#### Threshold
A threshold can be set above which gaps in the data should no longer be connected. This can be useful when the connected gaps in the data are of a known size and/or within a known range and gaps outside this range should no longer be connected.

- **Time series** is now the default visualization option, replacing the **Graph (old)**.
- The Time series panel now supports stacking. For more information, refer to [Graph stacked time series]({{< relref "../panels/visualizations/time-series/graph-time-series-stacking.md" >}}).
- You can now add alerts in the Time series panel, just like the old Graph panel.
- Updated [connect null values]({{< relref "../panels/visualizations/time-series/graph-time-series-as-lines.md#connect-null-values" >}}) options.
- We added support for a shared crosshair and a tooltip thats now smarter when it comes to data display in the tooltip.
- Various performance improvements.
