Within the Line Style Manager, you can Add, Edit or Delete Line Style sets.  It is accessed via the Line Style Sets Icon on the System Ribbon in Template Studio. 

A Line Style set is a recurring set of line types that can be used on grouped datasets. You must also set up a Line Style Set for any line you want to use on a single data series, including a “none” option. 

If a recurring Line Style set is used on a single data series then the first value in the set will be used.

The Line Style Set method is best described with an example.

Line Style Set 1 ·         Black Line ·         Red Line ·         Pink Line ·         Orange Dotted Line ·         Black Dashed Line

Line Style Set 2 ·         Green Line

 

If Line Series Set 1 were used for a Lab Test chart that was grouped on Location ID then each Location would have a different Line Style as shown below.  If Line Style Set 2 was used, then the same Line Style would be used for all locations.

Line Style Set 1 ·         BH1 - Black Line ·         BH2 - Red Line ·         BH3 - Pink Line ·         BH4 - Orange Dotted Line ·         BH5 - Black Dashed Line ·         BH6 - Black Line ·         BH7 - Red Line ·         BH8 - Pink Line ·         BH9 - Orange Dotted Line ·         BH10 - Black Dashed Line

Line StyleSet 2 ·         BH1 - Green Line ·         BH2 - Green Line ·         BH3 - Green Line ·         BH4 - Green Line ·         BH5 - Green Line ·         BH6 - Green Line ·         BH7 - Green Line ·         BH8 - Green Line ·         BH9 - Green Line ·         BH10 - Green Line
