RE: Max value for COD_COLORS

[Software FX]

Internally we support up to 65535 colors but the color property receives a short so it can only be used with numbers up to 32767

You can workaround this limitation by using the SendMsg method instead of the color property as follows 

N = 50000 

Chart.OpenDataEx COD_COLORS,N,0 

For i = 0 to N-1 

        Chart.SendMsg 9,i,RGB(0,0,0) 

Next 

Chart.CloseData COD_COLORS 

We have never received a request/suggestion to support a bigger number of colors but if necessary the max number of colors could be increased to 2 billion colors in a future service pack.
