#### Style
Choose whether to display your time-series data as **Lines**, **Bars**, or **Points**. You can use overrides to combine multiple styles in the same graph. Choose from the following:

- **None** - No gradient fill. This is the default setting.
- **Opacity** - An opacity gradient where the opacity of the fill increases as y-axis values increase.
- **Hue** - A subtle gradient that's based on the hue of the series color.
- **Scheme** - A color gradient defined by your [Color scheme](ref:color-scheme). This setting is used for the fill area and line. For more information about scheme, refer to [Scheme gradient mode](#scheme-gradient-mode).

Gradient appearance is influenced by the **Fill opacity** setting. The following image shows the **Fill opacity** set to 50.

##### Scheme gradient mode
The **Gradient mode** option located under the **Graph styles** section has a mode called **Scheme**. When you enable **Scheme**, the line or bar receives a gradient color defined from the selected **Color scheme**.
In **Scheme** gradient mode, the line or bar receives a gradient color defined from the selected **Color scheme** option in the visualization's **Standard** options.
