# Series configuration

> Configure individual series — mark type, color, and display options — independently from the global chart settings.

Series configuration lets you override chart settings on a per-series basis. Access it from the **Fields** tab by expanding an individual series in the Y-axis section.

## Mark type override

Each series can use a different mark type, independent of the global chart mark. This enables composite charts — for example, plotting one measure as a bar and another as a line on the same chart.

Available mark types per series:

* **Bar**
* **Line**
* **Area**
* **Scatter** (point)

To create a bar + line chart:

1. Add two measures to the Y axis.
2. Expand the second series in the Fields tab.
3. Set its mark type to **Line**.
4. Optionally assign it to the **Right Y axis** in the same panel (see [Axes](/docs/explore-analyze/charts/configuration/axes)).

## Series color

When no **Color** channel is assigned (single-color charts with no color-by dimension), each series has an individual color picker. Click the color swatch to open the picker and set a custom color for that series.

This setting has no effect when a Color channel is active — in that case, colors are managed by the palette in [Color & stacking](/docs/explore-analyze/charts/configuration/color-and-stacking).

## Y axis assignment

For charts with a dual Y axis, assign each series to either the **Left** or **Right** Y axis. This controls which axis scale the series uses.

See [Axes](/docs/explore-analyze/charts/configuration/axes) for configuring the right axis title, labels, and scale.

## Data labels per series

Enable data labels for an individual series without enabling them globally. Configure label position, font, and format independently for each series.

See [Data labels](/docs/explore-analyze/charts/configuration/data-labels) for the full configuration reference.

## Stacking override

On charts with multiple Y-axis series, you can set stacking behavior per-axis rather than globally. This lets you create grouped clusters where each cluster is internally stacked — expand the Y-axis settings for a specific series to access this option.
