NT8.002 How to Change ChartStyle Default Brush Colors?

[RJay]

In the (State == State.SetDefaults) area of a custom chart style file, I would like to define bar colors other than the ones that come as default.

I have not been able to figure this out. The "Help" web site does not have this information yet.

I need to be able to set default colors for the "UpBrush" and "DownBrush" colors.

A simple example of code showing how this is done is all I need. Thanks.

Hello RJay,

Thank you for your post.

We are in the process of developing these examples and we will update when we have an example of a Chart Style that uses of colors that can be set other than Up and Down.

Hello,

You can set the bar colors to any RGB value of your choice, within (State == State.SetDefaults), with the following code, replacing the specific RGB values with those of your choosing:

UpBrush	= new System.Windows.Media.SolidColorBrush(System.Windows.Media.Color.FromRgb(25, 235, 44));

DownBrush = new System.Windows.Media.SolidColorBrush(System.Windows.Media.Color.FromRgb(25, 175, 185));

Works like a charm. Thanks.
