How to customize colors on my dashboard? I don't want line "Error" to be blue and "Success" to be red. It's confusing

To add to linu1988's answer, I would take a look at "charting.fieldColors" to explicitly associate field names with colors.

If you edit the simple xml source, and find the chart element, add the following chart option:

<option name="charting.fieldColors">{"Error": 0xFF0000,"Success":0x00FF00}</option>

[error,warn,info]
[0xFF0000,0xFFFF00,0x00FF00]

in hiddenchart module/simple xml
