ChartView.VaryColors Property
Gets or sets a value indicating whether each data marker in the series should have a different color.
Namespace: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.Charts
Assembly: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.v24.2.Core.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.Core
Declaration
Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Boolean | true, if the same-series data markers are displayed in varied colors; otherwise, false. |
Remarks
By default, the slices in a pie or doughnut chart are varied, but you can turn this option off by setting the VaryColors property to false. As a result, the slices will be displayed as a single color instead of varied colors.
Example
The example below demonstrates how to create a clustered column chart and automatically apply a different color to each data marker representing a data point on the chart. To vary colors of the same-series data markers point by point, set the ChartView.VaryColors property to true.
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets["chartTask5"];
workbook.Worksheets.ActiveWorksheet = worksheet;
// Create a chart and specify its location.
Chart chart = worksheet.Charts.Add(ChartType.ColumnClustered, worksheet["B2:C8"]);
chart.TopLeftCell = worksheet.Cells["F2"];
chart.BottomRightCell = worksheet.Cells["L15"];
// Specify that each data point in the series has a different color.
chart.Views[0].VaryColors = true;
// Hide the legend.
chart.Legend.Visible = false;
