Graph builder symbols and colors

I wish different lines on a x-y plot in Graph builder would appear with different symbols in addition to different colors, by default.  The reason by default is important is because, as someone who is slightly (very?) color blind, I find it difficult to differentiate between the different overlay categories simply based on color.  Often I'll manually change symbols in the dataset one by one in order to see the differences.

You could use the same column as Overlay AND Color, then Jmp splits by symbol AND Color:

dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt << Graph Builder(
	Variables( X( :height ), Y( :weight ), Overlay( :sex ), Color( :sex ) ),
	Elements( Points( X, Y, Legend( 1 ) ), Smoother( X, Y, Legend( 4 ) ) )
)
