Defined Colors in Charts

Donatus

Hi,

perhaps somebody can support me.

I would like to make a Pie-Chart with defined Colors for the Categories i.e.
the Categories are States: US is always blue - Spain is always green ...
The Color matching should also be implented via die Datasource.
Is that possible with BIRT?

Thanks.

Hi Donatus,

The colors of the pie pieces can be set with script. Try something like:

function beforeDrawDataPoint(dph, fill, icsc)
{

if (dph.getBaseDisplayValue().equals("USA")) {
fill.set(0,0,255)
} else if (dph.getBaseDisplayValue().equals("Spain")) {
fill.set(0,255,0)
}
}
