Line chart not connecting

I'm creating a line chart that shows year on year trends. Currently, I have measures to calculate the sum of stockholding for right now and the LY same time period. When I use these measures for my Y-axis, the data points don't connect up, they just have dots for each piece of data. This is only in the section where they 'overlap' so I expect that's the issue but not sure how to make them show as lines?

Just looking to find out if there's a way to make the lines connect! I've attached a couple of screengrabs of what the chart looks like.Line chart dots.pngLine chart line.png

@pollyvincegalb , The first case happens when the line width is 0. The same way the dark blue in the second line is visual.

 

or

Also, sometime when windows patches are pending, the desktop starts showing some errors like these. Make sure no windows patch is pending.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your response. I have updated both my PC and Power BI but this has not changed anything. Both screenshots are of the same graph (just on different ends of it), the line width is the same the whole way through. If I remove one of the values in the Y-axis, the lines will show solid, it's only when there is the two of them does it start showing as dots.
