Dashboards & Visualizations

Is there a way to specify Shared option fieldColors on every chart?

Hi,

I work on a dashboard with several charts.

All these charts use the same customized fieldColors option but I have to repeat the option charting.fieldColors in each chart.

Question : 

Is there a way to specify the option just one time and reuse it in each chart ?

Thank you

Store the field colours in a token (in the init block) and use the token in the fieldColors option.

Hi @ITWhisperer 

Thanks for reply.

However, I try this but it doesn't work

<form>
<init>
    <set token="colorGreen">0x00AA00</set>
</init>
...
...
...
  <row>
    <panel>
      <chart>
        <option name="charting.fieldColors">{"SUCCES": $colorGreen$, "ERR. FONC.": 0x0000AA, "ERR. TECH.": 0xDD0000}</option>
...
...

My SUCCES bar still appears in Black instrad of green.

If I replace the token by his value (0x00AA00), it's OK

Is my <init> block in good location ?

Thanks
