Color change - Qliksense

Hello All,


As we know that we have some default color shades available in Qliksense some orange shades and all.

So is there any way we can change them without affecting anyother thing (like sorting or working of the charts)


Thanks and Regards,

Ankita

Hello Ankita,

There currently isn't a way to change the default out of the box coloring, that I am aware of. However you can use "color by expression:"

For example:

Here is the help document: http://help.qlik.com/sense/en-US/online/#../Subsystems/Hub/Content/Colors/ColorByExpression.htm?High...

Let us know how we can help.

Same for most of the charts as described in the doc - I just used the maps as an example as I had that available.

The following visualizations support color by expression:

  • Bar chart
  • Combo chart
  • Line chart
  • Map
  • Pie chart
  • Scatter plot
  • Table
  • Treemap

Hi Michael,

I don't remember exactly but when I tried to use a color expression in bar chart, for some reason my sorting stopped working.

So I want to know it from , does these expressions affects any other properties or working of the charts?

Hello Ankita,

The color by expression should not affect sorting. If that is the case - it should be reported as bug. If you have reproduction steps - please try them in version 1.1 and let me know. I can report it.
