This page provides details of the properties for a colour map, which is part of screen design.

Overview

Use a colour map to specify colours for selected chart attributes or series. It allows one attribute to have the same colour across multiple charts, regardless of its type, and the number, or sequence, of other attributes.

A colour map can be assigned to a chart in the chart's editor.
