Title: Assign Specific Colors to Series Values in Pie Chart
Post by: nyl46243 on 17 Aug 2016 01:26:22 PM
Hi Everyone,
I have a pie chart that I'd like to assign specific colors to certain values in Series (Pie Slices), but I can't seem to get it work.  It appears that the Palette depends on the Default Measure, not Series. Am I wrong?
I've tried Conditional Palette but it didn't work.  Perhaps someone can provide some instructions here.  Thank you.

I think you're looking for Conditional Palettes:

Your requirement can be handled with conditional palettes by following the produre you find in the link provided by CognoidJay.

It is important to note that the conditional pallette will not be shown in the legend of your chart. Keep that in mind when this is part of your requirements. There are several workarounds for this issue - please let us know if you need further input on this.   

Best regards
