How to combine lines and bars in same chart without combo chart

Hello, I have the following problem. I want a chart where I want to compare some products of my store with products that I produce, where myProducts I want to represent them with lines and the other products with bars. I did this with my 3 product as a line and 1 product of a foreigner, but now I want to select more than 1 foreigner's products and not to lose the color pattern. To be more specifical

dimensions: Date, ProductName

expressions: myProduct1, myProduct2, myProduct3, =Only(ProductName)

I tried to just do it without my products and it is fine even if a product appears each time it has the same color

then I tried to put it all in one expression and I keep the coloring but I don't have the desired result where myProducts will be represented with lines and the foreigners' ones with bars

here is the expression

=(

sum(

{<

CalendarMonthYear = {"$(=Date(max(LinkTable.Date), 'MMM-YYYY'))"}, 

ChannelName -= {'myProduct1', 'myProduct2', 'myProduct3'}

>}

ProductStatistics.Total)

+

sum(

{<

CalendarMonthYear = {"$(=Date(max(LinkTable.Date), 'MMM-YYYY'))"}, 

ChannelName = {'myProduct1', 'myProduct2', 'myProduct3'}

>}

ProductStatistics.Total)

)

/

(

count(

{<

CalendarMonthYear = {"$(=Date(max(LinkTable.Date), 'MMM-YYYY'))"}, 

ChannelName -= {'myProduct1', 'myProduct2', 'myProduct3'}

>}

distinct ProductStatistics.DateTimeReaded)

+

count(

{<

CalendarMonthYear = {"$(=Date(max(LinkTable.Date), 'MMM-YYYY'))"}, 

ChannelName = {'myProduct1', 'myProduct2', 'myProduct3'}

>}

distinct ProductStatistics.DateTimeReaded)

)

You can overlap one chart over another making background transparent.

also, the problems with that are:

1) the chart will be too big on the x-axis and the scrolling bar won't be good

2) if I will overlap the line chart so they will be visual continuously must be in the front but by that, if I want to select a bar I won't be able to do it

despite tint the size of the are
