How to change line style thickness ?

qvv.png

Hey everyone,

In a chart, I have 3 expressions and I would like the line of one of them to be more thick. How can I do that ?

I nkow I have to go Expressions, select the expression and go to line style, but then what do I have to write in the definition tab ?

Thank you for your help

Line Style
Only applicable on line, combo and radar charts. Click on
Line Style in order to enter an attribute expression for calculating
the line style for the line or line segment associated
with the data point.
The relative width of the line can be controlled by including
a tag <Wn> where n is a multiplying factor to be applied
on the default line width of the chart. The number n must be
a real number between 0.5 and 8. Example: <W2.5>.
The style of the line can be controlled by including a tag
<Sn> where n is an integer between 1 and 4 indicating the
style to be used (1=continous, 2= dashed, 3=dotted,
4=dashed/dotted). Example: <S3>.
The <Wn> and <Sn> tags can be freely combined, but only
the first occurrence of each counts. The tags must be
enclosed by single quotations.

You might need an = sign in the expression:

     ='<W4>'
