Adding a shape results in: shape_brush Set/Get the brush to be used on the shapes at each point. If no shape_brush is provided, then the shapes will be filled. The brush allows you to draw a "halo" around each shape. This sometimes help to separate the points from the lines and make them more distinct. METHODS
