Text Box getting hidden by a table when clicking the table

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?

    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.

      Hi Anonymous ,

       

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

       

      Best Regards,

        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?
