Text Box getting hidden by a table when clicking the table

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

It is very unusual. I have a table and on top of it I have created 3 text box on top of its columns (here is the circled one ".... Matrix").

Every time I click in the table, the table overlaps the text boxes. 

Text boxes as should be

I have checked the Selection Pane and as you can see the Text BOx are on top of the table (it's the one named "." at the end of the group)

Can you help me?

Here is the picture of when I click the table. The text box disappears

Hi @Anonymous ,

Can you make a sample .pbix file for a test?

How can I make it? Should I make a copy and copy also the datasource as a local excel file (currently is an Excel on sharepoint) and connect the two copies together?

Hi @Anonymous ,

Just import the data to power bi desktop and upload it to onedrive business then share the link with us.

Remember to remove the confidential information.

Hi and sorry for the late reply, was on sick leave.

I don't understand how to import the data in power bi desktop. I am currently using power bi desktop but it is connected to the corporate sharepoint. I can't change the datasource to something different then the sharepoint file

When in Desktop, if you click on a visual, it will come to the front regardless (It's an editing function of the application). You can, however, turn on the "Maintain layer order" under "General" in the formatting pane. The layer order will ensure that when the report is published to the service, the visuals will respect the order preference you have established in the selection pane. So if a user clicks on a visual "below" another, it will not come to the front and hide the other visual.

Thanks! I had just watched a video on the same topic. So you are telling me that once the Power BI is published, it will maintain the order? Because I tried doing this in desktop but sometimes the title is still covered by the table

Correct. You will see no difference in Desktop; the layer order will however be maintained once the report is published to the PBI service.
