Multiple Shapes on same Graph

Hi,

 

I am new to Power BI and trying to develop an report. Below is my requirement. 

 

we want to add  different shapes in a single graph for 5 different columns. There are 5 Columns A,B,C,D,E.  Cloumns A is the line graph and B,C are also line graphs but dotted which acts as UL and LL for column A. We want shade area between B and C.  For column D it should be blod line. For column E it should be traingle/any shape to differentiate all 4 other columns. can you please help me with this. 

 

X axis is time and Y axis is values of the columns(numeric).

    Hi nageshpbi ,

     

    We can set the shape for each line, click "Format" - "Shapes", open "Customize Series", select A, change your setting, then select other column and changes.

     

     

    BTW, pbix as attached.

      Anonymous  Thank you very much for quick response. problem is we are not able to get column E as different shape in any of the suggested charts. We want columns E as any other shape like triangle,dot/any shape. This is not working.

        Some sample data or PBIX file will help to understand better your issue.
