By default, the Custom Range Selector is visible in every chart. However, you can turn it off if you want, by setting the value of the enabled attribute within the customRangeSelector of the extensions object to 0.

Refer to the code below:

{
    type: 'timeseries',
    dataSource: {
        data: fusionTable,
        // Show/Hide Custom Range Selector
        "extensions": {
            "customRangeSelector": {
                "enabled": "0"
            }
        }
    }
}

    dataSource: {
        "extensions": {
            "customRangeSelector": {
                "style": {
                    "title-text": {}, //Object | String
                    "title-icon": {}, //Object | String
                    "title-text:hover": {}, //Object | String
                    "title-icon:hover": {}, //Object | String
                    "title-text:active": {}, //Object | String
                    "title-icon:active": {}, //Object | String
                    "container": {}, //Object | String
                    "label": {}, //Object | String

                    "button-cancel": {}, //Object | String
                    "button-apply:hover": {}, //Object | String
                    "button-cancel:hover": {}, //Object | String
                    "select": {}, //Object | String
                    "input": {} //Object | String
