Fixed Color Palette

[gargi_bardhan]

Hi!

Is there any way to fix color palette for an application on document level ?

The problem is as new month starts the application automatically picks random color to display for that particular month,

but I want a color palette pre defined, so that whennever new month arrives, it should pick from the Palette itself.

Regards,

Hi,

     Use persistent color option which below the Multicolored option in the properties of the color tab.

     This Fixes the color for the Month or year.

Hi Celambarasan !

I got your point, let me explain see like in my organization there are some fixed colors, so for example right now its Feb month running, so according to financial year(April-Mar) it's 11, so all reports are showing 11months & colors are fixed for each month by chooisng the way you mentioned, fyn, but as on 1 Mar the qv will randomly pick color to dislplay against Mar, so how could I pre-define the color for Mar ?

So I want a predefined palette which will contain 15-20 Client defined colors, so that whole application automatically picks one of the color out of this Palette only .

Thanx for the quick response.

Hi,

     If you have predefine the colors then you have go with the background color option only.

     See the attached file in that use the expression below in the definition field

     if(DimensionField='Jan',RGB(255,0,0),if(DimensionField='Feb',RGB(0,255,0)))

Hope it helps

Hi,

You can define the predefined mapping table for colors for each month.

Please check the attachment for solution.

Example:

Month     Color

Jan-11     RGB(255,0,0)

Feb-11     RGB(250, 0, 0)

'

'

'

'

'

Like this define a table with colors. 

Note : In the above mapping table give the column name same as you month column name.

Now in the Background color option of expression give

=Color

Now it fills with the predefined background color.

Hope this helps you.

Regards,

Jagan.
