hi Guys,

is there a way to not overlap 2 visuals?

Hi @jaryszek,

 

Visuals occupy the width x height coordinate space assigned to them, so if they overlap, they overlap.

 

You can look at the layer order of the slicer so that it sits above the chart and prioritizes interactivity for end users.

 

If you are only looking for a cosmetic solution, you can consider making the topmost visual transparent (General > Effects > Background > Off) to avoid filling it and showing the underlying slicer "through" the chart above it. Note that the visual has priority for browser events (e.g., clicks) even if it has a transparent background. Therefore, the layer order approach is more ideal if you intend for users to need to use the slicer.

 

Regards,

 

Daniel
