Different color for different axis categories

Is it possible in a basic column chart (ChartType.COLUMN) to have different color for different axis categories.

To explain better: I would like every column in my chart to have a different color.... is that configuration possible?

Thanks
 

Hi Tiziano,

if I understand your problem correctly you have a simple column chart and you would like each column to have a seperate color. In that case, the following example should contain what you need.

final VerticalLayout layout = new VerticalLayout();
        setContent(layout);

        Chart chart = new Chart();

        Configuration conf = chart.getConfiguration();
        conf.getChart().setType(ChartType.COLUMN);
        conf.getLegend().setEnabled(false);

        DataSeries data = new DataSeries();

        DataSeriesItem item1 = new DataSeriesItem();
        item1.setY(2);
        item1.setColor(SolidColor.RED);
        data.add(item1);

        DataSeriesItem item2 = new DataSeriesItem();
        item2.setY(1);
        item2.setColor(SolidColor.YELLOW);
        data.add(item2);

        DataSeriesItem item3 = new DataSeriesItem();
        item3.setY(3);
        item1.setColor(SolidColor.GREEN);
        data.add(item3);

        conf.addSeries(data);

        layout.addComponent(chart);

I hope this helps,

Henrik
