|

Defines which shape to use for all markers. |
|
Shape by column values |
Select this option to use different shapes for the categories in a specified column or hierarchy. Which column or hierarchy to use, as well as which shape should represent which category, is specified under Shape definition. Note: A default set of shapes is used when automatically assigning shapes to categories. When there are more categories than available shapes in the default set, shapes will be recycled. |

Opens the Advanced Settings dialog where you can change the category mode to determine which combinations to show. |
|
Shape scheme |
Lists the categories in the selected column or hierarchy, and the shapes that have been assigned to each of these categories. Note: The set of shapes that is used by default in the scheme does not include all the available shapes. You can, however, always change to the shapes of your choice manually. Click on a shape in the scheme to display all the available shapes and make your selection. |
|
Tiled markers |
Select this option to display the markers as tiles. The markers will be rectangularly shaped, have the same size, and be displayed in a grid-like layout. Note: When you use tiled markers the settings in the Size page will be disabled since the markers have the same size. |
|
Pies |
Select this option to use pies instead of markers. Note: The Pies option is only available when the scatter plot is aggregated. Scatter plots are not aggregated by default. To enable the Pies alternative you need either to set Marker By to (None) or to use the column by which you want to aggregate on the Marker By selector. |
