[Feature] merge line and scatter chart types #20460

Open rehni opened 3 weeks ago

rehni commented 3 weeks ago

What problem does this feature solve?

in current version, line and scatter type are different types, i would like to see scatter and line chart to be just alias of the same type. i used plotly in the past and they have scatter type with possibility to show lines. what is actually reason to have it separate?

What does the proposed API look like?

line and scatter type will have the same API with possibility to show symbol, line or symbol+line together

line chart can do exactly that - Demo 📌 please close issue if problem solved.

and vice versa, can scatter also draw lines between symbols?

scatter also drawing lines !? why have two chart types with identical functionality ?
