Shading a specific time (weekends) in graph builder

Hello, I am working on a graph looking at cyclical trends and was wondering, is there any way to apply shading to specific days/times in graph builder to draw attention to the specific ranges? I have attached an example image of what I'm trying to do below, where I added shading to the weekends in a photo editing platform. 

Thank you!

As you didn't provide data I will use jmp's steel shipments as example. Create new column which indicates weekends

You can then use this column as color in graph builder

You can then change the colors / transparency from legend settings

 

 

Also I'm fairly sure I have seen Scott Wise do something like this (https://community.jmp.com/t5/Scott-Wise-s-Blog/bg-p/swise-blog) but couldn't quickly find it.

Fantastic, thank you for the prompt reply and instruction!

You can add Reference Lines to the time axis that span a range of values. See the example below and the axis dialog box.
