Trendline covering up error bars

[itgoeson]

Hello--

How can I change the order of the trendline and data set? My trendline
is covering up my error bars... I want them on top. Any way to do
this?

Thanks,
Jennifer

A chart has certain layers, and the orcer of the layers cannot be
changed, only the order of objects within a layer.

Trendlines go on top of almost anything in the chart. You could double
click the trendline and choose a thinner line style, you can double
click on the error bars, and choose a more conspicuous style.

You could also use the coefficients to plot your own trendline as an XY
Scatter series, and it should be plotted in a layer beneath the error bars.

Thanks for your help! Great idea to just plot it as a new data set.
However, I had some problems... see post
