Change background color for a section of a graph

Here is the way it is not ideal, but enough for fixed target value.
1. In the chart select x and y axis, and in its property winfow set maximum and Minimum value for both
2. Draw an image that can fit the chart's scale and target
3. Put this image to the folder: <insight_install_dir>\AppServer\profiles\RationalReport\installedApps\<node_name>\IBM Cognos 8.ear\p2pd.war\common\images
4. Set the image as the background image of the chart body.
a) Do not forget to unlock first!
b) While setting background image, do not browse for it, type full path directly: http://hostname:9080/insight/common/images/backgound_image_name.png
If the image is not shown when running the report, wait for a few hours or re-start WAS service
