Defining Colors for Series Risers

Syntax: How to Define Colors for Series Risers

"series": [
   {
      "series": number, 
      "group": number, // Optional
      "color": "string" 
   }
]

where:

"series": number

Is a zero-based series number. If the series does not exist in the chart, the property is ignored.

"group": number

Is an optional zero-based group number. If the group does not exist in the chart, the property is ignored. If a group number is not specified, the color is applied to all risers in the series.

"color": "string"

Is a color defined by a color name or numeric specification string, or a gradient defined by a string.

For information about defining colors and gradients, see Colors and Gradients.

Example: Defining Colors for Series Risers

The following request generates a vertical bar chart and defines colors for each series:

GRAPH FILE WF_RETAIL_LITE
SUM COGS_US REVENUE_US GROSS_PROFIT_US MSRP_US
ACROSS PRODUCT_CATEGORY
ON GRAPH PCHOLD FORMAT JSCHART
ON GRAPH SET LOOKGRAPH VBAR
ON GRAPH SET STYLE *
*GRAPH_JS
"series": [
	{"series": 0, "color": "lightgreen"},
	{"series": 1, "color": "coral"},
	{"series": 2, "color": "lightblue"},
	{"series": 3, "color": "burlywood"}]
*END
ENDSTYLE
END

The output is:

The following version of the request applies linear gradients to each series:

GRAPH FILE WF_RETAIL_LITE
SUM COGS_US REVENUE_US GROSS_PROFIT_US MSRP_US

"series": [
	{"series": 0, "color": 
		"linear-gradient(0%,0%,100%,0%, 20% darkred, 95% red)"},
	{"series": 1, "color": 
		"linear-gradient(0%,0%,100%,0%, 20% green, 95% lightgreen)"},
	{"series": 2, "color": 
		"linear-gradient(0%,0%,100%,0%, 20% saddlebrown, 95% orange)"},
	{"series": 3, "color": 
		"linear-gradient(0%,0%,100%,0%, 20% teal, 95% cyan)"}]
*END
ENDSTYLE
