How to change the line color on overlapped charts

[BarbaraYanChen]

Hello,

I want to make a overlapped chart (line and stacked bar) in Power BI.  Here are the steps: (1) I made a line chart (3 lines), then unchecked 2 legend, only one line on the chart (1 legend) (2) I copied the line chart and pasted/changed to a new stacked bar chart, checked the uncheked 2 legend to show on the bar (3) then I overalpped line (back)  and stacked bar (front), please see below screen shot.  I already changed the stacked bar color to green and yellow. My question: how to chagne the purple line to black color.  FYI, they are using the same filter/format/build pane.  when I tried to change the line color, the function is not clickedable, please see below screen shot.  

Thanks,

Barbara

Hi @BarbaraYanChen ,

Here I create a sample to have a test and I could reproduce your issue. It seems that you cannot modify the color of the line if the field you are using as 'Legend' has only one type.

Here I suggest you to remove the filter in legend and change the line color to black and then check the one legend

you need.
