    I would be Nice to have option for setting dotted or solid lines for each rowset in a linechart. typically used for illustrating Budget/forecasts (dotted) and actuals (solid)

    Dotted lines and all other ways to format charts that are available in normal Excel charts would be nice to have... Power Bi should be even better at graphics than a normal Excel sheet!!!

    This also applies to SPC charts used in many applications. Currently have a manufacturing client that could use line type and line thickness option.

    It would be useful to also configure the linethickness (even 0 thickness) combined with datapoint dots. :)
