Access Color Options

You can set color options for workbook and visualizations in your workbook.

  1. On the Home page, hover over a workbook, click Actions, and then select Open.
  2. Click Edit to open the workbook in author mode.
  3. If you want to edit color options for the workbook:
    1. Click Menu on the workbook toolbar and select Workbook Themes to change the theme and color series. See Workbook Themes.
    2. Click Menu on the workbook toolbar and select Workbook Properties to edit continuous coloring.
  4. If you want to edit visualization color menu options.
    1. Select the visualization, click Menu and select Color. The available color options depend on how the measures and attributes are set up in your visualization.
    2. Select Stretch Palette to turn this option on or off.

      Color palettes have a set number of colors, and if your visualization contains more values than the number of color values, then the palette colors are repeated. Use the Stretch Palette option to expand the number of colors in the palette. Stretch coloring adds light and dark shades of the palette colors to give each value a unique color. For some visualizations, stretch coloring is used by default.

    3. Select Reset Visualization Colors to revert to the original colors.
