Dotted Line chart with Multiple Lines

A while back I posted this question: http://splunk-base.splunk.com/answers/29015/dotted-line-chart

The answer gave me exactly what I wanted, which was to be able to customize the lines I have on a chart, I was able to create dotted Lines and change Line Thickness...etc successfully.

Now I have more than 7 Lines on the same chart, when adding the necessary steps to customise a Line or two, nothing seems to take effect not matter what I do.

I assume the cause would be having too many Lines on one chart?

Note: My chart also has two Yaxis

Requested XML

Although, I do think that when having two Yaxis on a chart, customizing the Lines doesnt seem possible, that could be the reason.

The below is what you need:

you're setting the lineburshes on "chart" but then referencing "chart1" and "chart2" on the chart.layout. You need to have your respective charts use your brushpallette
