Properties

Select the object on the Report Design page to display its properties in the Properties View.

key, value, name, color

The data is grouped by the key property, which must be a String. The chart displays the total of the value property, which must be numeric, for each key.

The name of the report item is displayed in the Structure view.

The color property gives each slice a specific color.

When a color is specified for a particular key in one chart, then the same color will be used for that key in other charts too, unless specified otherwise. If different colors are specified for the same key, the most recent value is used. If the same color is specified for a number of different keys, only one of these keys will be painted with the specified value; the other slices will be painted with interpolated values. Charts may use gradients, shading, or translucency with the colors specified.

Note:

You can specify colors only if the Draw As property of the Map Chart is Pie, Pie3D, or Ring.
