Changing graph colours in numbers

I'm using the numbers on iCloud and I have a graph with 8 categories. Unfortunately the colours repeat which makes it kinda confusing and I can't seem to find anywhere where I can change that, nor any answers online.
Hope you can help!
(Side question - if you buy a new iPad you get iWork for free, there isn't a way to get it on my com without having to buy a new mac is there? It's 7 years old now so it probably won't be long anyway, I was just wondering )

to change colors for a series of a chart, single click the chart, then select the series, then open the "Style" formatter:

  • Changing the colours on multicomponent XY graphs.

    Hello,
    I know this should be easy and I even looked at the XY graph example that Labview offers. However, I am not having much success when I try to change the colours of two datasets plotted on the *same* XY graph. I've placed two VI's here that I have been working on. The first (graph.vi) plots the two datasets but I can only get one colour. In the second VI (graph2.vi) I can change the colours of each dataset but if the program is run continuously it hangs. Can anyone have a look at these and correct me on my mistake(s)?
    Thanks!

    Dear Remington,
    I'm not sure what you wanted with your code and which your question is related with the VIs.
    1. You mentioned a graph2.vi, but there is a graph.vi and a graph1.vi which are nearly the same.
    2. I will describe what you have programmed. You have an outer while loop running until you abort the VI. This while loop contains a "left" while loop and a "right" while loop. The "left" while loop runs only once generating 4 random numbers. The autoindexing gives you 4 arrays existing of one element each. Two of them were bundled togther giving one plot consisting of one point. These two plots were given to the "right" while loop. In the loop you add them to an existing array coming from the shift register. The output and there the sh
    ift registers contains an array of plots which is a valid data type for a multi plot xy-graph. After the first iteration you have an array of two elements each representing a plot. In the next iteration you will add 2 new plots so you have 4 plots to print, next iteration 2 new plots so 6 to print and so on. Your program dosen't hang. You have defined a point style only for the first two plots. since each plot is only one point long the graph could not draw any line so the other plots will not be seen.
    3. I have changed your VI so it will add a new point to the two plots on each iteration of the outer most loop.

  • In the old Numbers I could change the colour of a checkbox using rules - I cannot seem to do this in new Numbers 2013?

    In the old Numbers I could change the colour of a checkbox using rules - I cannot seem to do this in new Numbers 2013?
    I have an old Numbers sheet where I could make the checkbox Cell go Green when ticking "Equal to" TRUE. When I open the old sheet it into new iWork it functions correctly. But I am unable to copy or paste the rule - nor recreate it.
    Any suggestions on how to create a Conditional checkbox cell that goes green once ticked would be most apprecicated.
    Thanks - Steve

    Numbers 3.0 is missing the logic-based "equal to TRUE" or "equal to FALSE" conditions for conditional formatting.  The replacement is text based: "text is TRUE" or "text is FALSE".  You can apply these rules to cells formatted as checkboxes.

  • Graph colours keep changing

    Hi,
    I've assigned a colour theme to my Pie Chart. However, the colours keep changing for the different series values. Is there any way that I can have a fixed colour assigned to a value from the theme? i.e. Red for Unavailable, Green for Available and Yellow for Don't Know? As it stands, BAM keeps changing these colours around as the data is updated.
    Thanks

    Hi
    I am afraid BAM doesn't provide this capability.
    You can use background colors in a list view etc. using HTML based on a value threshold. There is a sample on the same on BAM 10g, samples or technotes page.
    Also, something along the same lines is demonstrated in Call Center demo as well.

  • Chart colours in numbers for iPad.

    Why is it that when I create a new spreadsheet using templates, do I get different colour options for charts etc? I don't see any theme settings and I can't find any way to change the colours to the ones I like. If I create a spreadsheet from the blank template I don't see a way to set any themes to get the nice textured coloured graphs etc. I take it the only way to get the results I want would be to use a template with my favourite colours and just delete everything and start again?

    Don't type the two letters "nu" but the three "ios" ones.
    You will get two entries :
    iMovie for iOS
    and
    iWork for iOS (which is ridiculous because this product doesn't exist).
    Clicking on this late entry you will enter a community grouping questions upon the three apps.
    Click the button "Refine this list" to restrict to Numbers.
    I already asked the forum staff to change this odd behavior so that
    typing nu offer Numbers 4 iOS
    as well as Numbers 4 mac OS
    And of course, same request for Keynote and Pages.
    Wait and see.

  • Change the colour of lines in the same string indicator.

    Hi everybody,
    I'm getting crazy, because I'm looking for the way to change the colour of
    the lines I want in the same string indicator.
    I'm doing an application to control an instrument by serial port, and I'm
    concatenating the lines that this instrument gives me, but there is some
    line that I would want to change its colour, because there has been an alarm,
    for instance. And I only can change all the string.
    Is there any way to do this? I don't know.
    Could you please help me?

    Thank You Very Much.
    The fourth step is a little bit difficult to understand, but what I've done
    is all the three first steps, and in the fourth one I've made an array (I32)
    of the lines that I don't want to highlight and connect it to Disabled �tems.
    Do you think this is a good solution?
    Thank you again for your help. I really needed someone to help me, because
    if not I would still be with the STRING INDICATOR.

  • How do I change Text Colour in a Spreadsheet?  The Help menu doesn't help.

    Simple question whcih i cannot find the simple answer to:  How do I change Text Colour in a Spreadsheet?  The Help menu doesn't help.

    Hi Lecia,
    You have several choices.
    Use the first set of controls in the Format Bar. One of these is a Color well (red in the image). Select the cell(s) in which you want the text coloured, then click the well to open its Color palette, and choose your colour.
    Use the Text Inspector. Open the inspector, click the Text button (T), and use the tools there (similar to the set in the Format Bar).
    Press command-T to open the Fonts Window. This offers a few more options than are available in the Inspector or the Format bar.
    Regarding "Help": I'd recommend using the Numbers '09 User Guide, which you can download via the Help menu. Easier to search, and easier reading than the individual Help articles. search 'text color' to quickly get to instructions on applying colour to text.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Change the colour of events in iCal

    I need to change the colour of events/appointments in the Mac iCal.  I have imported all of my Outlook calendar via google sync and all my appointments are now just one colour.  I have my medical appointments coloured in orange so they stand out each week (I have many) and all my personal events a different colour, and my volunteer work a different colour so that I can see at a glance in week view what I am up to. Looking at one week with every appointment in one drab colour is not nice.
    I notice that different calendars are different colours, but I dont want separate calendars as I need to sync with google to share the calendar with Android phone and iPad.
    Please can you let me know how to turn this feature on.  Many thanks.

    Click calendars at the bottom of the page the click on the i symbol for info and then you can select the colour you'd like.

  • Change the colour of the outer line of a circle

    Hello everyone,
    I drew up a circle with no fill inside, to show where the location of my highway storm culvert will be.
    I changed the thickness of the outer line of my circle shape by creating a stroke effect at layer → blending options → stroke; then I changed the thickness of the line by right clicking in stroke at the layers panel and then choosing "scale effect."
    But the problem I have is that the outer line is gray, and I want it to be black.
    The outer line was originally red though so I changed my image → mode to grayscale, because I couldn't find a way to change the colour while keeping my image in RGB colour.  So I've managed to make the outer line gray by changing the image mode but I still can't change the colour of the outer line to black.
    I'm sure there must be other ways of changing the outer line colour without having to change the image mode, but I'm clueless.
    Here is my drawing:
    The text next to the circle says «Obra de desagüe». That's spanish for "drainage construction site."
    You see, I can't change the colour because I have no clue at where the "change colour option" is. I tried going to layer → layer properties, but in there there's only 7 colours to choose from. I chose a random colour, just to see what happens and what truly changed colour was the layer, within the layers panel; not the shape contained within the layer.
    So I'm lost here, any help please?
    Unfortunately I'm still not an expert in Photoshop just yet.
    Thank you for reading my post.

    Set shape layer opacity 100% Fill 0% to make fill transparent or add an empty layer make a circular selection stroke it black.

  • Best way to draw an asset if I want to change the colour of it?

    If I draw something manually, can I still change the colour by actionscript?
    I want to draw a cat, and the cat colour depends on the the user choice in the previous 'screen'.  How should I go about this?
    Thanks.

    Yes, there are a couple ways. You can use the ColorTransform class. Or you can use one of the Tweening engines - it's really easy to tint objects using TweenLite. You can even test in the demo at http://blog.greensock.com/tweenlite/
    Scroll down a bit to the demo... pick a color in the tint box and hit Tween.

  • How to make this image compatible as a laser cut file by changing stroke colour?

    My final aim with this image is to make it compatible as a laser cut raster engrave design, so the laser cutter will fill the black areas or white (either would be fine). If this is not possible then even as a laser cut outline would be suitable
    This is how the image will look when in Illustrator. however when I use the preview screen (ctrl+y) it creates an outline. This is how the laser cutter will read the image which is why it is very important the preview image is is what i would expect the final outcome to be.
    As a raster the laser cutter requires the stroke line to be blue r:0 g:0 B:255. Currently I cannot edit the colour, yet I can change the stroke weight. Also how I would I fill the engraved areas as a stroke? At the moment when I try converting the stroke to blue it turns grey.
    I am also unsure as to how I would make this feasible even to be cut out when I cannot change the stroke colour to red. This is required for laser cut designs as the laser cutter reads red lines to be cut.
    I can usually change stroke colours easily so I assume this is due to the fact that I have brought this file through from Photoshop so it is not yet fullu editable. I have used the live trace and live paint function in illustrator so far.
    Any help would be appreciated

    You need to expand the artwork and convert the strokes to genuine outlines to in turn be able to apply anotehr thin stroke to them again...

  • How do I stop B/W photos changing to colour?

    I am running LR 2.7 on a Mac and this weekend for the first time, I set my camera to black & white mode and took a series of raw photos. When I imported them they all came across in the filmstrip as black & white but as soon as I started viewing them they changed to colour. I know the raw file contains all the colour data etc.  but I really wanted to work on the black & white image from the camera and not have to start from a colour image? What did I do wrong? How can I stop it changing in future when I shoot raw files?

    Lightroom knows little to nothing about your in-camera process settings. So, setting the camera to B&W and expecting the images to be correctly rendered is futile. The following post from the FAQ forum should help explain the reasons http://forums.adobe.com/thread/358016?tstart=0
    If you really want your images to appear as B&W in Lightroom you can apply one of the B&W develop presets during import.

    Hi,
    What do you mean by travel? Is that when it wont change all settings across the board? e.g another staff member with adobe acrobat wont have the same settings as i do?
    I am the only one creating the forms and using any adobe settings anyway so i guess it wont really matter that they dont have the same settings as i do but its not hard to change them on all pc's anyway.
    Thanks though.
