williaster commented on issue #4643: Added option to add fill to area line charts URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/pull/4643#issuecomment-374472020 yeah I agree this will def be confused for a stacked area chart / is pretty misleading as is. to improve it you could try to mirror this ggplot example by - making them super transparent to ensure that you can see the overlapping lines - have the area stroke goes down to _zero_ even if the y-value does not (ie add a stroke around the entire area). this is true in the ggplot example and I think helps show that it's _not_ stacked. <img width="500" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4496521/37636076-ef284df0-2bbc-11e8-83e2-069d2a9caf9d.png"; /> also just because excel allows it doesn't mean it's good, right next to the filled line graph in your example there's also a 3D area chart which is definitely frowned upon.
