Styling data series on bar charts and schedule charts

Hi Experts,

 

Problem : A bar chart and a schedule each have a data set bound. These data sets are created dynamically. Therefore the number of series cannot be defined on a bar chart. (Consequently defining style formats for individual data series is not possible for the bar chart. )

 

Is it possible to give the same color to the bars that have the same name from the two different charts  ?

e.g.,

Bar Chart: Apple_Series = Green, Banana_Series = Yellow

Schedule Chart: Apple_Series = Green, Banana_Series = Yellow

 

Regards,

As an example, for Bar chart widget,

You can configure the bar color of each series by below setting. Note this is a hard setting. If Filed displaying order changed then it might not apply to your request.

Under widget Properties, there is "DataSeriesStyle" property where you can set bar color of all series according to a special Filed value. This setting control bar color based on filed value not based on Filed Name. So I dont think this setting is good to your request.

Generally speaking, currently it is impossible to control bar color without using above 2 settings.

Thanks @wcui .

 

For now I will just use conditional statements to display different colours for each series on the schedule chart. As for the bar chart, I will let the colours auto generate.
