Custom Slice or Sector Colors in Pie Chart

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, redefine the colors in the chart.

To set a custom color for a pie chart’s individual slices or sectors:

1. Access the Series object’s ChartPoint.
2. Assign the color of your choice using the ChartPoint.area.foreground_color property.

This article also explains how to:

• Set a chart’s category data.
• Link a chart title to a cell.
• Configure the chart title font settings.
• Set the position of the legend.

ChartPoint.area.foreground_color is not specific to pie charts but it can be used for all types of charts.
