Colour Map
A colour map allows you to specify colours for selected charts attributes or series. It allows one attribute to have the same colour across multiple charts, regardless their type and the number or sequence of other attributes.
A colour map can be assigned to a chart in the chart's editor.
For each colour map, the following settings are configured:
Field | Description |
---|---|
Basic Settings | |
Name | Name of the colour map. |
Colour Map Entries | |
A list of of the colour map entries. For each colour map entry, the following settings are configured: | |
Name | Name of the colour map entry. Note that the name here has to exactly match the label/string that the colour is being assigned to. |
Value | Choose a colour from the colour picker. |
Description | |
Description | Description of this colour map. |
Examples:
Colour Mapping Configuration Panel
The above Colour Mapping record was applied to both of the below graph views.
Pie charts
Note that for this pie chart view, the Label Attribute = "Status Type", and status type has the following possible values, each of which require their own record in the Colour Mapping Entries panel.
- ERROR
- WARNING
- INFO
- OK
Bar Graph
Note that for the above bar graph, the Label Attribute = Status Type + "Portions", (list below- each require their own record in the Colour Mapping Entries panel).Â
- ERROR Portions
- WARNINGÂ Portions
- INFOÂ Portions
- OKÂ Portions
This is because the bar graph is a sum of the "Portions" attribute, grouped by Status Type. Â
Hence, in the initial screenshot above, all of the 6 Entries in the Colour Mapping record are required for the colour mapping to be configured properly.
