Force second y axis
Yes, I have the same issue. Can someone please answer how to get the option to show up for controling a second Y axis. I see this, https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-tutorial-combo-chart-merge-visualizations/#optionally-turn-off-the-second-axis But this is just not showing up for us. The chart looks rediculous without being able to turn the second Y axis on.
teylynBenjamin There are only certain visuals it shows up for. The two are the "line and stacked column chart" and "line and clustered column chart" in both these visuals if you click on the y-axis under Format (Paintbrush) and scroll down in the y-axis area - you will see "Show Secondary"

Use Line and Stacked Column Chart
When you turn on and open the Y-Axis options - there will be a scroll bar - scroll down to Show Secondary - Y-Axis(Line)

Thank you Sean!! I see it now.
The all-encompassing glorious grayness is really not helpful for discoverability of features. Especially since in the documentation screenshot it looks like the setting is at the top of the Y axis options, again, due to the bad color choice of the scroll bar.
Feature request: Make scroll bars in the formatting sections more discoverable. Gray is not a good color!!
