Combine TimeSeries with Bar Charts in One Panel (Overlapping Issue + Overlay Panels)

Grafana Dashboards
1

Hello Grafana Community,

I’m facing a problem creating a combined visualization in Grafana, and I’d really appreciate your help.

What I’m trying to do:

  • I want to build a single panel that combines:
    1. A TimeSeries chart (orange panel) with lines and bars mixed.
    2. Two Bar charts, one aligned to the right Y-axis, and the other to the left Y-axis, below or combined in the same panel.

The problems I’m facing:

  1. The columns in the bar chart are overlapping, making them unreadable.
  2. I can’t see the first column at all.
  3. Ideally, I want to combine multiple TimeSeries with different graph styles (lines + bars), with the bars positioned on opposite sides (left/right) for better readability.

Here’s an image showing what I have now:

What I tried so far:

  • I tried splitting them into two separate panels, but I want to overlay them in the same panel for better visualization.

Example of my separate panels:

My question:

  • How can I fix the overlapping bars issue and show the first column properly in the combined graph?
  • Is it possible to overlay two panels on top of each other in Grafana? (e.g., like layers)
  • Are there any plugins, custom panels, or advanced configuration options that can help with this?

I searched a lot but couldn’t find a solution for either fixing the bar overlap or overlaying panels together.

Thanks a lot for any help or suggestions!
