Coloring

The Chart dashboard item paints different measures and series dimensions by hue in Default color mode. The image below shows the chart item where State series dimension values are painted in different colors. A special icon (WinForms Dashboard - Coloring Indicator) on the data item shows that color variation is enabled.

For each color, you can also specify fill and line styles to distinguish data series without relying on color:

  • Line Styles Use line styles for Chart dashboard items with line series.

  • Fill Styles Use a solid or hatch fill style for Chart dashboard items with bar and bubble series.
