Using Standard Chart Colors

By default, charts created globally in Release 8.4 and later use the standard colors available in the Standard Color Palette. In this case, the Legacy option check box is unchecked on the Choose Color Scheme dialog box.

  To apply a standard chart color scheme:

  1. Select the chart, and on the short cut menu, select Properties.

    The Chart Properties dialog box is displayed.

  2. On the General tab, select Color Scheme for Data Points...

    The Choose Color Scheme dialog box is displayed.

  3. Select Standard and click OK.

    Note:

    The color scheme for the standard chart palette cannot be changed.

In the following example, the bar chart uses the colors from the standard color scheme:
