AugerScan lets you change the color and type for the following lines:

A line definition includes the type of line (solid, dashed, and dotted) and a color. The definition for lines used to display multiplex and depth profile regions also includes the repeat rate. The repeat rate is how frequently the same line definition is displayed with the data.

There is one line style available for survey and alignment data. Because there are multiple regions for depth profiles and multiplexes, you have more choices for line styles in addition to the basic axis and grid definitions. You can define line styles for each of up eight different regions. The repeat rate will control how many times you see the same line. For example, if you define the line for four regions and your depth profile contains eight regions, you will see each line definition twice. AugerScan will use the four line definitions for the first four regions and then use the four line definitions again, in the same order, for the last four regions.
