Series type

Choose how the series of data points are shown on the chart:

Type	Description
Line	A series of data points connected by straight line segments.
Point	Identical to a line chart, except that only the end points of the segments of each line are shown.
Bar	A bar chart.
Area	Like a line chart, except that the area between the X-axis and the line segments is filled with a colour or a pattern.
Step Area	An area chart in which the points are connected by horizontal and vertical line segments, giving them the appearance of staircase steps.

Select a marker symbol for the data points. A range of standard (Circle, Square, Diamond, Pentagon, Hexagon, Star, Triangle, Plus, Cross) marker symbols are available for selection in a drop-down list.

This option is disabled when the Bar series type has been selected.
