Scatter Control: markerDrawingMode

indicates how to interpret negative data values

Type: Character

Valid Values: Actual Absolute

the drawing mode affects the size of a marker (if sizeVariable is assigned) and whether a marker is drawn filled or in wireframe (if colorVariable is assigned). Valid values are:

Absolute If the data value for sizeVariable is negative then take the absolute value of sizeVariable to use as size and draw the marker in wireframe. This would mean that if the sizeVariable was assigned and had two values -20.0 and 20.0, then the two markers would be the same size. Also, the marker will be drawn in wireframe. However, if chartStyle=Wireframe, then all markers will be drawn in wireframe regardless of markerDrawingMode. In addition, picked items will not respect markerDrawingMode settings.

Actual If the data value is negative, reduce the size of the marker to a minimum value and draw the marker filled.
