Hi ,
I have made a graph that displays up to 17 data points. I would like to assign a different shape for some of those
data points. So far I know how to change the shapes for ALL the data poins.

Is it possible to have data points that are made up of different shapes.

Thanks

Hi,
One solution is to have several point series - one for each distinct type of point. Then through the Value expression of each point series you can assign a Nothing value to the data points that should be hidden and a valid value for those that need to be visible. This will result in a chart with different point shapes.

I have not been able to Assign a 2nd dataset to the 2nd data Grouping. When I create a 2nd Grouping it only sees fields for
the first DataSet.  The enclosed image shows what is available for the 1st data series .
I have her types of charting/reportwriters and creating/using  a 2nd dataset is relatively easy.

An alternative could be one dataset but with a filtered applied  at the grouping .However even this approach seems to have its problems.
Are there any examples that clearly shows the creation of more then 1 data point serie?
