Line Chart - Format plot line width, transparency, and style

Hi All,

 

I think I'm missing something so easy I'm going mad.  The standard line chart I can't find how you change the line style

1 - How do you change the line width
2 - How do you change the line transparency
3 - Biggest issue how to change from a solid line to dotted or dashed line

I've see someone present a dotted/dash line, but I guessing I'm being totally darft as I cannot see for the format option.

Thank you all in advance
Mathew

Sorry all I found style for the plotted line, under "Shapes"?!? - No transparency setting still, but finally found it

It would be nice, if the formatting panel intutive.

Mathew

Is there seriously no option for making a line less transparent? I mean this has been a basic bread and butter in excel for decades right?
