Line and column chart: do NOT connect line points?

Is there anyway to format a line chart or rather a combo line chart so that the lines themselves are not shown just the dots?     See how some are independent dots and others are connected. ...

Excel supports this so we are just asking for feature parity.

With the latest release of PBI Desktop this is ALMOST achievable...if only we could make the line color transaparant, or set the Stroke Width to 0.

 

Using a white line on a white background works as long as the line does not cross any of the bars. Sooooo close... please take us the last mile, Microsoft.

     white lines distract my users still... if there was just a "transparent" color option that would sort the issue!

    How are you changing the line color seperate from the join marker color?

      Line Color (under Data Colors) vs. Marker Color (under Shapes). However this feature has been fixed and this should be marked as "done" because you can now set the Line Stroke Width to 0. Thanks Microsoft. :)
