Graphs and Strip Graphs can display lines in different colors and thicknesses as well as with attached numbers and symbols. We will manipulate the options for the Graph tool; the same methods can be applied to the Strip Graph tool.

The appearance of lines can be adjusted separately for the screen (left), the printer (center) and the clipboard (right). We are changing only the screen here.
