Hi guys.
Is it possible to specify the colors in the legend entries in a graph yourself somehow? I thought this would be possible. I need to put the colors in the table for darker to lighter as it is to be printed in black and white. Unfortunately, there seems to be no way o select the color by specifying it yourself. Is it probable programmatically?
Right click on the series represented by the legend entry and change the color of the series. That will change the color in the legend too.
Yes, but you cannot exactly specify it yourself. If this is not possible, it is seemingly impossible to tell which color will be lighter when printed out in black and white.Quote:

I've done it in Excel where I specify arbitrary colors for the series programatically from C++. However, I'm at home right now and all my code is a work. I'll see what I did tomorrow when I'm back at work if noone has answered this.
Looks like I found it: in Tools->Options->Color change some colors. Looks annoying but will work. I have to do this for all the excel-files but you can create templates so you only have to do it once. :)
