Stacked area chart - Color problem

hello, it seems as if the Data Colors set to the columns of the 'Stacked area chart' visual are applied with a default Transparency setting that can't be removed. Am I missing something or is this a bug?

Thanks, Bastiaan

    Hi BastiaanBrak ,

     

    We can't change it for now. The good news is it will be improved soon. Maybe we can have the feature to change it in April or May 2019. 

     

    Best Regards,

    Hi Bastiaan,

     

    What do you mean the default Transparency? Do you mean the color is a little light?

      hi Dale, v-jiascu-msft

       

      Yes, that's what I meant. I added three shapes to the right of the stacked area chart that I gave exactly the same Fill colour, then played around with the transparency to see at what level it (approximately) matches that of the stacked area chart. It seems as if the 'default transparency' for the stacked area chart is set at 60% but without the possibility to change this. This is a problem for me as I want to match the colours to the colours in another visual, a map, where I can't set the transparency to 60%,

       

      Hope that makes sense.
