Element Format

After you select an element in the Plot Element list, available
formatting options appear. A drop-down arrow is grayed out if the

option is not configurable. For example, text has color but no line
style options.

Line Style
Determines the line style for the selected element.

Line Weight

Determines the line weight for the selected element. If the
selected element does not have a line weight property, this field is

disabled.

Marker Shape
Determines the marker shape for pen elements.

Color
Determines the color for the selected element. Pen elements apply

the color to the line and marker.

Last Marker Color
Allows selection of a different color for the last marker for a pen. If

Match Trace is true (selected), this field is disabled. If the selected
element does not have a marker, this field is disabled.

Next To Last Marker Color

Allows selection of a different color for the second-to-last marker
for a pen. If Match Trace is true (selected), this field is disabled. If

the selected element does not have a marker, this field is disabled.

Match Trace
Determines whether all marker colors match the trace color (true)

for a pen. If set to false, the Last Marker Color and Next To Last
Marker Color fields are enabled so the marker color can be

changed for those two plotted pairs. By default, this field is
selected (true). If the selected element does not have a marker,

this field is disabled.
