Hide column data labels, keep line data labels

I would like to use a chart that has columns and a line with data labels above the line (see screenshot).

I am unable to find a formatting option to hide the column data labels, and keep only the line labels.

 

Currently I have tried line and stacked / line and clustered column charts. I have also tried making the label colour the same blue as the columns to "hide" them, but would prefer black. Is this possible?

    You can modify it from format visual >> Data labels by choosing your's bar/line measure and putting "on" or "off":

    working perfectly on both of charts:

    Hmm, my Power BI looks quite different - probably an older version. I don't have independent controls over the labels on this visual. Turning it to off turns off both labels.

      Hi Anonymous 
      Quite a few years have passed since it was founded.
      It is recommended to download a new version in any case.
      Especially since it's free...
