Adding New Colors

[User (Legacy)]

Hi,

I have a client who needs particular colors in their charts which are not 

available in the supplied Palettes or the 49 colors available at run-time. 

Is there a way of adding new colors at design or run-time?

Many Thanks

Dear David,

You have two options here.

Change the colors manually or create your own palette file.

If you change the colors manually either at design time or run time you will 

be just changing that specific objects color.

chart1.Series[0].Color = Color.Pink;

This does NOT affect the color in the palette just lets ChartFX know you 

want to use that color and not the palette color.

This means that if you do in fact change the palette at runtime all the 

colors that were not set in code will be changed and you pink will remain.

See http://support.softwarefx.com/kb/600/1/019.htm this article about how to 

create your own palette file. This might be what you want.
