Venn Diagram Color Management

asmithids — Tue, 20 May 2014 17:34:57 GMT

Hello,

I created a Venn Diagram with 8 separate fields. See attached qvw. The issue is I don't see how I can assign a different color for each field. Currently, it's repeating the same three colors for the first six fields and then using the first two colors for the last two remaining fields.

The Venn Diagram uses a straight table as the chart. Straight tables do not allow for color management.

Does anyone know how to manipulate colors in a straight table?

Thank you,

You are using the Google Chart API ,not Qlikview, to generate this chart. Any color management would be done by the Google API.

https://developers.google.com/chart/image/docs/gallery/venn_charts\

I believe that API only supports 2 or 3 circles, not the 8 you are looking for.

Hi Rob,

Can QlikView create Venn Diagrams? I did not see the chart option.

Qlikview does not have a Venn chart type. You have to use a url that produces an image (like the google chart) or an extension. I don't know of an existing extension for venn but there may be one out there.
