Chart Color Sequence (Default Palette)

Hi,
Does anyone know where I can get the series color sequence for the
chart generated? For example, if I have 2 items on the chart, the first
one is in green and the next one will be in blue.
Thanks.
-- JordanMost of the provided chart color palettes have 16 distinct colors. As you
have noticed, the default palette always start with green, blue, magenta,
etc.
Every chart series (essentially legend item) gets its own color. The
following blog article shows an example of how to use your own color
palette. It also uses a custom legend that this is probably not what you are
looking for - you could just rely on the built-in chart legend.

You can also download my sample from the blog article.

>|||Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I came across your article and it sort of gives
me an idea on how to achieve my required report format (stacked chart
and line). I am using the default color palette and I need to know the
color sequence so that I can built my own legend to represent the chart
generated. I need to know at least 30 of the first color sequence in
order for my charts and legend to display correctly.
Thanks.
Jordan|||Hello Robert,
I'm running RS SP2 and have long known how to easily specify certain
colors be assigned to specic colors. What I have not figured out is how to
make these programatically assigned series colors semi-transparent like the
default series colors in a stacked bar chart. Is this possible?|||Sorry, semi-transparent colors are not possible through RDL at this point.
