That's perfect. Thank you very much for your help, Tim.

  Hi all. It's been a year since my last question and this one seems
 like an interesting problem.
 
  First to give you some background, I'm making a stats page for a game.
 The game consists of three rounds and each round consists of five
 clicks. Each click can either add or subtract points from your score. So
 after each round I'd like to show a line chart to plot out the value of
 the users' points (y axis) against each click (x axis). Since the second
 round starts with the points from the first and the third from the
 second, the graph of the entire game (all three rounds) is continuous.
 
  In order to graphically distinguish which clicks came from a certain
 round, I would really like to have the line be broken up into three
 colored segments.
 
  I couldn't find a good solution so I tried to hack my own by simply
 drawing three individual segments head to tail. However, this doesn't
 work for two reasons: the line needs to be continuous and it needs to
 show data tips. The three segments at a glance appear to be continuous,
 but I set the line to be curved so it's smooth. Back-to-back lines
 don't curve corners and all of a sudden a smooth line has a sharp angle.
 Secondly, since the ending point of the first or second round is the
 starting point of the next round, hovering over that point on the chart
 displays two data tips; one for each round (displaying the same point
 values).
 
 
  Does anyone know of anything built in to simply say starting at
 x-value X change line color to #xx?
 
 
  Thanks!
