Chart: Changing the color of a bar

Hello Experts,
We would like to change the color of a particular bar in the chart. Can someone share a code snippet to achieve the same? If we use color-pallete aggregation then color change is getting reflected to all the bars.
We are using makit library, please note that we had tried the same with viz library also.
Snippet from XML view:
<ma:Chart id="idChart1" height="50%" width="100%" type="Column"
rows="{/}" showRangeSelector="true"
showTableView="false" showTotalValue="false">
<ma:category>
<ma:Category column="type" displayName="Product" />
</ma:category>
<ma:values>
<ma:Value expression="tickets" displayName="Gross Value"
format="number" />
</ma:values>
<ma:columns>
<ma:Column name="type" value="{BillCycle}" />
<ma:Column name="tickets" value="{Volume}" type="number" />
</ma:columns>
</ma:Chart>
Regards,
DR

Hello
I am having trouble changing the color of a line chart. I can change colors in bar charts, but it does not let me change the colors for the same data set in a line chart format.
Do you mean that you want to have different parts of the same line to appear in different colors?
When I move the chart to Pages it won't let me put the chart legend actually in the chart (which I need based on the APA guidelines).
Print the Chart to PDF and import the PDF to Pages, with the Legend wherever you want it.
Finally - any thoughts on how to adjust the X axis so that the first data point doesn't start right on the Y axis?
Set the Axis Minimum to some other value.

Gantt chart- How to change the color of time bars of different versions

Hi All,
My Client wants to see all changes in planning schedule. I made different versions of these changes but he also want to see all these changes in gantt chart and in different colors. I tried to change the color in planning board assistant but in this screen (CJ27/ CJ2B). we cannot view all versions together. And if I use CN41, there I cannot change the colors of time bars.
Secondly, we can change colors of times bars of basic dates, forecast dates and actual dates but there is no provision to change the colors of schedule bars of different project versions. Kindly reply-
1. How to see all project versions in CJ27 or How to customise bar chart in cn41 or if we change in SPRO, then how to change graphic profile in project info profile
2. How to change colors of different time bars of different versions.
3. How to mention these legends (meaning of each color in chart) at footer of gantt chart (in print outs)
Please Help.
Thanks & Regards
Dinesh Chauhan

Thanks,
actually I've created new project planning board profile where planning board assistant is customized but unable to use this profile in CN41. we can change PS info profile in CN41 and that;s why I thought that planning board profile may be assigned somewhere in PS info profile so that changes in planning board assistant will be applied in CN41 through PS info profile. Graphic profile is too complex to understand and not sure if it will help to get colored time bars of projct versions in gantt chart. Still not clear.
Secondly not able to see all versions (snap shots) in gantt chart with different colors of time bars.
I mean planning board screen can be customized but we cannt see different versions here which are possible in CN41, but we cannt customize the gantt chart (time bars) in CN41. Pls help.
Thx & Regards

How to change the color of bar in bar chart

Hi I'm
using Crystal Reports 2005 with Visual Studio 2005. How do i change the color of the bar in a bar chart, i don't see any options, someone telling in the forum that i can simply right click on the bar and choose color, but i don't get that option. all i can select is the entire chart object.
any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
yesvee

You have to make sure that you select the correct part of the bar.
For Example: When you click on the outside of the chart, the entire chart will be selected. Clicking somewhere inside the chart will also highlight the entire chart, but to highlight a specific bar or line you have to click until only that part is highlighted.
Once you have the bar or series highlighted, right-click on the highlighted section and then select Chart Options, or "Format Series Riser" and you should be able to change the colour of the bar/line.

How to change the color (or fill) of a SINGLE bar in a bar chart series

I've searched the forum and consulted the help system in Keynote '09, and I can't find the answer.
I have a simple bar chart with 6 bars. I want to select two of the bars and turn them a different color. I only seem to be able to change the color of the series as a whole. I can only select the series as a whole, and I can't Ungroup it or even copy it to the clipboard (it beeps!). I've tried changing the color of the number represented by the bar in the underlying table; can't be done.
Am I attempting something impossible? If so (grumble grumble), why hasn't Apple made it possible? It seems like an obvious thing to allow.

It is unfortunately impossible -- the individual bars are not selectable. As a workaround you can a) overlay them with a rectangular object, or b) overlay them with a second chart identical to the first, with all the bars except the two set to zero.

How can I change the color of plot in a waveform chart and graph?

If there is only one plot, i can change it's color, however when there are more than one plot, it fail.

Hello MilkyStone,
first you have to set the active plot, then change its color (or other properties). All that is done using property nodes.

How do I change the color of the triangle in a menu bar?

Hi,
I have a question that might seem very rudimentary...How can I change the color of the little downward-pointing triangle on my menu bar items that have sub-menus? Specifically, I want those triangles to be invisible when the cursor is not over the menu bar. Right now it is black and changes to white. I'm running Dreamweaver CS5 on a Mac if that makes any difference. Is there a CSS rule for this somewhere that I am not seeing?
Many thanks for any help!

Using footage from my iPhone 4, how can I remove the black bars on the sides of my picture? Or change the color to white...

My footage is vertical and there are two black bars on the side filling in the rest of the picture. I want to imbed this into PowerPoint without the black bars on the side. Any suggestions on how I can remove them or at least change the color to white? I changed the background color in View > Background > White, but it was only for editing purposes and didn't keep the color after rendering.

To change the background to white, in FCE, place the video on track V2 and place a color matte generator on track V1. The default color for the color matte is grey so you'll need to change it to white using the color picker.

How can I change the color of chart in webi report

Hi :
I create one Webi report including one table and chart In BO 4.0.
The chart display the relationship between sales-amount and profit amount . I do not want to use the default color but want to specify the red color for sales-amount and yellow color for profit amount . How can I do it ??
Thanks Very Much
Emily MA

Hi,
You can change the color very easily. It's simple & straight forward which I found it couple of days back. (Sometimes simple things are hard to find :-p )
Select the area in the Chart that you want to change color, then go to Format > Style > Background color. Now select the color that you want. In the attached picture, I have selected Yellow color for a piece of pie chart.

How do I change the color of the area next to the Tab Bar

I've got Firefox 8.0, and ever since they went to the new layout I've had problems with the area at the right of the Tab Bar. When FF is maximized, the buttons up there ( > + ▼ X ) are black on a dark blue background, and I almost can't see them - so I never use it maximized.
How do I change the color, maybe back to the colors it uses when not maximized?

I got used to the tabs at the top -- and kinda prefer that look, but I'll try this for a while.
Is there any way to change the color of either the buttons or the background?
Thanks.

How to change the color of a title bar

Hello !
I try to change the color from my title bars, but I fail.
I tried to change the activeCaption value to an other colour, but that didn�t work. Currently I use a own LAF and set it with UIManager.setLookAndFeel("dpg.beans.GuiWindowsLookAndFeel");
import javax.swing.UIDefaults;
import com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel;
public class GuiWindowsLookAndFeel extends WindowsLookAndFeel {
protected void initSystemColorDefaults(UIDefaults table) {
    String[] colors = {
       "activeCaption", "#B0171F"
     loadSystemColors(table, colors, false);
}I also used the complete stringarray from WindowsLookAndFeel and only changed that one color. Still no changes.
Any ideas ?

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
class Testing
public void buildGUI()
    UIManager.put("activeCaption", new javax.swing.plaf.ColorUIResource(Color.YELLOW));
    JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
    JFrame f = new JFrame();
    f.setSize(200,100);
    f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    f.setVisible(true);
public static void main(String[] args)
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){

Array of clusters and in the cluster is a bar meter, how can I change the color individually?

Array of clusters and in the cluster is a bar meter, how can I change the color of the bar meter individually for each element of the array? I have just figured out that you can't change properties of one element of the array without all elements changing. For the scaling I had to make numeric indicators for each tick of the scale so that each bar meter in the clustered array would have individual scales. I also had to do some math to scale each barmeter to display correct proportions from 0 to 100%. Now I'm stumped on the color of the bar meter. Basically, if the value goes over a setpoint, the bar meter needs to turn red. It has to be in an array to be infinitely scalable.
Thanks
Matt
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You can't do that-
without a little trick.
You could consider laying a custom color box over the bar graph in the cluster you can set the color based on the value of the bar graph or even make a "Pseudo"- bar graph using a series of color boxes stacked to look lie a bar and changing values of the Color boxs from empty to full to red.
Here is an example to demonstrate

How to change the color of font in the menu bar for more clarity?

I am using a Persona and the color of the font is white. There is not enough contrast for easy reading.
How do I change the color of the font?

If you have installed a persona then the default text and background color are supplied by that persona.<br />
The currently selected persona if stored as the first entry in the pref lightweightThemes.usedThemes.<br />
You can edit that pref and set another value for the "textcolor":"#ffffff" part (e.g. "textcolor":"#000000").<br />
To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
