Hi,

When enabling shaded area to a line in a "combo chart", I want to place it in the background, behind the columns/bars. Today it is placed in front of the columns/bars and thus it hides a big part of the visualization.

I suggest that it is made possible to move the shaded area via "Bring forward" "Send backward" within the visualization.

This should be possible to set per each "Column value" and "Line value" within the "Line and stacked column chart" and "Line and clustered column chart" visualisations.

+1If it'll get it done more quickly, set "shade area" to appear behind all other values by default. Ideally, users should be able to set it precisely as needed in their charts, but I feel like it would belong in the back of the visual stack in the majority of cases.

Yes, this feature is already available in Excel. Can we please have it in Power BI as well?
