@rabarth1 I was able to darken the line as requested, but adding a legend to the bottom like the author did in her sample is beyond my abilities. These are charts are being generated within an Excel file that the author supplied, and while I was able to add a legend to one chart I wasn't able to extend it across all three and the labels weren't really working like hers either. If it's important to follow her sample, I'll need to work with Molly to find someone to do it for us. Let me know.

The darkened lines look good, Greg. For the legend, I think we either need to ask Renate to resupply files with a legend corresponding to this English terminology, or ask Molly to have someone make it. This is really important to the author. Let me know what you think would be the better option--I can ask Renate, but the only caution I would have is her English is not great and she might submit files with mistakes/typos, as she did last time. Let me know what you think would be better and faster. Thanks so much.

Understood @rabarth1. I think the first/quickest place to start would be with the author's version with the legend. If I had the Excel file from her I think I could update it with English labels. Could you ask her to send it?

Just emailed her and BCCd you.
