Line Style

Hi Guys,

I have line chart with 6 different lines representing 6 different Items. User takes black and white print, but in that he should be able to differentiate those 6 items by seeing the line style. I was able to achieve only 4 types of Line style using <S1> till <S4>. But I have 6 Lines. Please suggest me on this.

You can also represent lines as dot or broken lines (thick & thin or small or large)

Add two extra 'Symbol' expressions to mirror the two lines without <Sx> values. These will look different.

Thanx James for the reply, but I am not able to understand how to achieve the same. Please find my sample app. I want 6 different line style for Country. Because when i take monochrome print three Countries look similar.

Hi,

Instead of representing lines with different format why can't you represent with different colors?  This is more easier to identify the parameters instead of color styles.

Regards,

I already have different colors. But user takes monochrome print, so in black and white print it should be Distinguishable.

Hi

Why don't you try Width option?

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>
