Can we create global settings for charts

Hello,

Can we create global settings for charts from a properties file, where we can define color settings, font, size what ever required. Or can we have styles applied to chart. The idea is to define a set of global properties in properties file and apply for all the charts in the applicaition. This way if we want to change any ting we can change in one place will apply in all places.

Can any suggest can we do this in birt, especially I am looking for some global configuraition for charts? If so how?

Thanks
manu

BIRT allows you to abstract any CSS-based styles and use them in your report. You can import an existing CSS to a report or create new styles to use for one particular report.

Once you have the styles available in the design, you can right click on the chart, select "Apply Style" and select the style element you wish the chart to implement. This will format any elements of the chart for which the style is intended. For example, changing a font face and color via a style will force all the text in the chart to honor that style.
