Change the Marker’s Appearance for One or More Observations

A node marker is used to identify the node in a data table. You can change the shape, outline, and fill used for node markers. When you change the node marker's appearance, you can apply your changes to one of the following observations:
  • all observations
  • selected observations
Note: Any change you make here remains in effect only while the current project is open. If you close and then reopen the project, your change is not saved.
To change a marker’s appearance:
  1. If you want to apply changes to selected observations, then select one or more observations that you want to change.
  2. Select Table Viewthen selectObservationsthen selectMarker Properties. The Marker Properties dialog box opens.

    To select a color, select Set color from the Outline or Fill list box. This action opens the Color dialog box, which contains colors to select from and the option to define your own color. For help using this dialog box, see Using the Color Dialog Box.
  4. In the Apply to box, select whether you want the changes applied to all observations or to just the selected observations. (The Observations excluded from analyses option is not supported.)
