Data points for line graph.

[Guest]

I'm working on a graph with 7 lines. I need solid symbols (such as a filled
in square, filled in circle, etc.) for each line. Is there any way I can add
to what's offered? There just aren't enough choices. The scalloped circle
looks fuzzy on my graph. I could use a plain circle, an upside down triangle
etc.

Maybe this will give you some ideas:

I'm thinking you could draw the autoshape you want on your slide,
right-click it and choose Save As Picture. Then import it into your graph
using the techniques described in the link above.

Hi,

See Jon Peltier's explanation on custom markers. Although for Excel
charts the principle works in MSGraph too.
