Stored procedures
Initializes the category color for a chart whose type is:
  • Pie,
  • Column,
  • Bubble chart,
  • Waterfall.
By default, the colors of categories (or the colors of sections, bubbles, ...) are selected according to a preset order among a set of 11 colors.
Example
// Modifie la couleur de la catégorie 3 dans le champ "GRF_Graphe1"
grCategoryColor(GRF_Graphe1, 3, LightRed)
Syntax
grCategoryColor(<Chart name> , <Category number> , <Color>)
<Chart name>: Control name or character string
Name of the chart to be used. This name can correspond to:
  • the name of the chart defined programmatically with grCreate.
  • the name of the Chart control in the window, page or report editor.
<Category number>: Integer
Number of the category to modify.
For a Pie chart (constant grSector), this parameter corresponds to the index of the data in the series (the sector number). In this case, this function is equivalent to grSeriesColor.
For a column chart type (constant grHistogramme), this parameter corresponds to the category index: all bars in the category will be colored. The colors specified for the category series will be ignored.
For a Bubble chart (constant grGrapheBulle), this parameter corresponds to the category index: the bubble corresponding to the category will be colored.
<Color>: Integer or Integer constant
Color of specified category. This color can correspond to:
Remarks
  • The colors defined by grCategoryColor will be taken into account during the next call to grDraw.
  • To display the color gradients, use grGradient.
  • The colors specified by grCategoryColor are taken into account in the Waterfall charts. You also have the ability to define the colors of categories in the Waterfall charts with grWaterfallColor.
