Problems with Bar colours in V3.2.2831.26852

When a bar chart has solid colours, editing the series and changing the colour just changes the colour of the bar borders, however if the bar is set to show a gradient then changing the colour does in fact change the colour.

Hi Adrian,
That's not true, colour changes if you go to Series -> Format -> Format tab and use the "Color" button.
Can you please try this at your end?

Doesn't work...
the Series -> Format -> Format tab and the "Color" button only change the bar edge colours the line, not the bar colour. The bar colour does change if the gradient is turned on.

Hi Adrian,
Try the following please:
1. Go to the All Features\Welcome !\Chart styles\Standard\Bar\Self stacked example in the features demo.
2. Double click in the yellowish textbox above the example to edit the chart.
3. Go to Series -> Format -> Format tab.
4. Check that the gradient is disabled.
5. Now click the Color button and try changing it.
This changes the bars colour for me here. Does it work fine at your end?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Adrian,
Yes, this doesn't work. I've also added it (TF02012549) to our defect list to be fixed for future releases.

Hi Adrian,
Thanks for the information. I'll update this on the bug list. However, this worked fine for me here with Shape series.
Regarding Vector3D series, this is because it uses ColorRange, this works:
Code: Select all
Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Vector3D v1 = new Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Vector3D(tChart1.Chart);
v1.FillSampleValues();
v1.UseColorRange = false;
v1.Color = Color.Lime;
However, the editor to set those properties should also be available. I'll add it to the list as well.
