Change the Patterns and Colors in a Display

In bar and pie displays, you can specify colors, patterns, or gradients for each series of bars or pie slices. For line displays, you can specify the color, line type and marker type of each line in the display.

In a pie display, all categories whose values are less than 10% of the total display are grouped in a slice labeled Other. You cannot modify the default color of this slice. Patterns are especially useful when printing in black and white. PowerPlay Web has a 16-color palette. If you use all the colors in a display, PowerPlay Web rotates through the same color palette again.

1. Click the arrow to the right of the Chart button on the PowerPlay Web toolbar, and then click Chart Options.
2. Click the Palette tab.
3. Select the formatting that you want to apply.
