Chart Palettes

FusionCharts Suite XT provides five chart color palettes. The palette theme configures colors of these chart elements - chart background and border, canvas border and background, fonts, div lines, tooltips, anchors and the legend.

This section talks about using predefined palettes.

The data structure needed to apply chart palette - 1, is given below:

{
    "chart": {
        "caption": "Quarterly Revenue",
        "subcaption": "Last year",
        "xaxisname": "Quarter",
        "yaxisname": "Amount",
        "numberPrefix": "$",
        "numberSuffix": "K",
        "palettecolors": "#008ee4",
        "useplotgradientcolor": "0",
        "showplotborder": "0",
        "showShadow": "0",
        "palette": "5"
    },
    "data": [
        {
            "label": "Q1",
            "value": "125"
        },
        {
            "label": "Q2",
            "value": "257"
        },
        {
            "label": "Q3",
            "value": "173"
        },
        {
            "label": "Q4",
            "value": "182"
        }
    ]
}

The data structure for using the other four predefined palettes remains the same with only palette attribute changed from 1 through 5.
