AFAIK, you would have to overlay transparent colour text boxes

Sure,  check Settings User Preferences, and ensure you have 'Always Show Design Menu Items' ticked.

Right Click on one of the dim headers and select 'Customer Cell Format', then click and chose the background colour that you want.

Hi,

Go to Settings -> User Preferences -> Design Tab -> Check the box "Always show design menu items".

Click ok.

Right Click on Chart cell and you will find the option "Custom Format Cell"

Using this option you can change the color.

Hi,

In that case go to Dimension tab in chart properties. Click + sign next to dimension, double click on Background color, here you can give your expression to give background color.

I want to change only one cell, the title 2016-04-19. By doing the way you advice will change the whole column.
