Stacked Area with Line

Hi,

 

I'm trying to emulate the Excel Custom Combination Chart for a client. I need to create a stacked area line graph with line overlays (no bars). Power BI does have a stacked area chart, but I cannot add lines to overlay on top of that. I am trying to tweak Python code to get a Python chart that will do this for me, but I'm running into difficulty.

 

Would someone have an example or be able to help me figure this out in Python (or another method)?

 

Thanks!

    Can you "stack" the visuals on top of one another? You can turn up the transparency of the background to make one visual show through another.

      Unfortunately, the visuals will be dynamic and the user will need to hover over the lines, so that will not work.
