Line A line chart shows values as points on the y axis. The x axis shows categories. The y values of each data series can be connected by a line. Points only - this subtype plots only points. Points and lines - this subtype plots points and connects points of the same data series by a line. Lines only - this subtype plots only lines. 3D lines - this subtype connects points of the same data series by a 3D line. Mark Stack series to arrange the points' y values cumulative above each other. The y values no longer represent absolute values, except for the first column which is drawn at the bottom of the stacked points. If you select Percent, the y values are scaled as percentage of the category total. Mark Smooth lines to draw curves through the points instead of straight lines. Click Properties for a dialog to change the curves' properties.
