The line chart is not clickable after adding rectangular shape

I have created 3 line charts and then added rectangular shape on the top to include all 3 line charts. Once the shape is added with borders, when I try to click on any of the line charts, it was no longer clickable and didn't have tool tip either.  I suppose the rectangular shape has covered all 3 line chartes. Do you have any suggestions? 

Many thanks,
Anna

Hey @AnnaFenton

 

I would recommend putting the rectange behind the line charts, instead of on top. The easy way to do that is go to the View tab and check the Selection Pane box. Then rearrange your elements to put the line charts on top of the rectangle.

 

Hope this helps,

Parker
