In both cases masking, say, datapoint n and hiding this datapoint resulted in graphs where datapoints n-1 and n+1 were still visible and point n was invisible. In case of line+scatter graphs there was then no connection in between n-1 and n+1. Turning on "connect across missing data" checkbox resulted in a connection between n-1 and n+1. After updating from SR3 to SR5, however, the masking tool works differently for line+scatter graphs. Apparently, the mask tool now just hides datapoint n WITHOUT hiding the line between (n-1 and n) and (n and n+1). Thus, although the outlier itself is removed, it is still indicated by the lines of the line+scatter plot (see attached image, arrow marks masked outlier) Any suggestions to force the old behaviour are welcome.
