This article explains how to add custom colors to pie chart slices/sectors. By default, pie charts use the Microsoft Excel default template. To use other colors, it is possible to redefine the colors in the chart.
To set the custom color for a pie chart’s individual slices or sectors:
- Access the Series object’s ChartPoint.
- Assign a color of your choice using the ChartPoint.getArea().setForegroundColor() method.
This article also explains how to set:
- A chart’s category data.
- A chart title linked to a cell.
- The chart title font settings.
- The position of the legend.
ChartPoint.getArea().setForegroundColor() is not specific to pie charts but can be used for all types of charts.
