I've been using combo charts for awhile to render scatter graphs of 
measured data, with line charts to represent user defined 'thresholds' 
(above which, the points are red flags).  Rendering lines like this works, 
but the user can only hover over the end points to see its numeric value.

I like how the stepped area chart allows hovering over an entire section, 
and would like to use this instead.  However, I do not see an option to 
make the area in question be 'above' the numeric values given.  I could set 
options.vAxis.direction to -1, and although this flips the area, it also 
flips the numeric values of the y axis (and I need this on a combo chart 
with a normal scatter chart where up is higher y values).

So I'm curious if there is an easy way to make the stepped area chart go 
above the line instead of below.  Considering the framework can flip the 
entire graph, I'd think this would be relatively easy.  Alternatively, is 
there an easy option for lines where the user can mouse over any point in 
the line and see its 'value'?


Also, somewhat unrelated, but I had a set of data that was accidentally 
graphed where there were >400 thresholds (creating 400 very simple 
horizontal lines as separate series).  When I render this in chrome, memory 
consumption grows and grows until chrome eventually kills the process.  I'm 
surprised by this because 400 data points is very easy to graph.  Is there 
a reason that 400 series each with 2 data points and a line between should 
be non-performant?  Is there a better solution to prevent this, or do I 
simply need to add a limit to what I query from our database before 
rendering?

Thank you for your time.
