Widgets masks other widgets : How to avoid this behaviour

I drew a filter bar with a large colored square in the background of my page, then I placed filters over it.

 

The problem is when a user clicks on the square (not excatly on a filter), the square comes over the filters and hides them! It is confusing for him.

 

How can I block the colored square of my menu bar in the background to avoid it masks the filters ?

Thanks

    you can follow the below screenshot

    As you can see i tried to replicate the issue which you are facing ...I took a rectangle box and added one slicer from visualisation pane ..click on the slicer-->Format-->Send backward:-)

    Hope it resolves your issue? Please consider accepting it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.

      Hi HusnaBanu413

       

      Thanks for your message, but it does not solve my problem.

       

      I used the backward/forward placement butons when creating the report. The issue comes when the end user consults the report :

       

      In the following screenshots, the dark grey square is my filter bar.  There are 3 filters on the right side (REGION, PCLCV, PERIOD).
      And the mousse pointer is the red arrow

      1) If the mousse pointer of the user is not above the dark grey square : The filters are visible. Great !

       

       

      2) Then if the mouse pointer is moved above the dark grey square, the filters become masked / invisible. WRONG !!!

       

      How can I avoid the filters to disappearing ?

      Regards
