How to set bar chart a specific colour?

POR160893 — Tue, 17 May 2022 14:56:25 GMT

Hey,

I am tasked with creating a bar chart for one of my dashboard panels and the colour of the bar chart must be pink.

I am using:
<option name="charting.fieldColors">0xff66cc</option>
for the panel but the bar chart still turns blue:

Can you please help?

Thanks,
P

Take a look at this question, which was answered by @niketn

I read the link you sent, and edited my code to the following:
<option name="charting.seriesColors">"count": 0xc98b06</option>
Still didn't work 😞

It looks like you combined features from the two options. When doing the charting.seriesColors, you don't name the field. Regardless of which you use, the value should be in brackets.

<option name="charting.seriesColors">{0xc98b06}</option> or <option name="charting.fieldColors">{"count": 0xc98b06}</option>
