+## Description
+
+I want to remove the darker, solid border around bars in a graph with a bar series. The border is more visible in the HTML viewer and overlaps the grid lines. The bars use a semi-transparent yellow color palette which allows grid lines to show through. The goal is to eliminate the darker border while maintaining the semi-transparent fill effect.

+
+## Solution
+
+To remove the darker border around the bars:
+
+1. Select the graph in the Telerik Reporting designer.
+1. Expand the 'Series' property.
+1. Locate and expand the 'DataPointStyle' property.
+1. Set the 'LineWidth' property to `0pt`.
+

+
+This removes the darker border around the bars, ensuring they appear without overlapping grid lines.
