Point Style options include "All" (show medium-size circles for each data point) and "Subtle" (show small-size circles for select data points). Path Style options include "Straight Line" (draw a straight line between data points), "Step Line" (draw a stair-step between data points), and "No Path" (only draw data points and no lines in between).
