Contrasting Colors - Pie Chart

[Arvind]

Hi,
   I have attached the screenshot of the pie chart developed using RadCharts.  By default the chart is showing green, light green, blue and light blue.  It does not differentiate the items at the first look itself.  A keen observation is required to distinguish between the items. 

Instead of light and dark shades, is it possible to show some contrasting colors in the pie charts?  Do I need to set any property in the radChart? 

Regards,
Arvind Robin Kumar.

Hello Arvind,

You can create your own series palette like this:

var myColors = new ColorBlend[] {
                        new ColorBlend(new Color[] { Color.FromArgb(255, 224, 78), Color.FromArgb(247, 204, 22), Color.FromArgb(226, 175, 3)}),
                        new ColorBlend(new Color[] { Color.FromArgb(136, 221, 246), Color.FromArgb(97, 203, 234), Color.FromArgb(59, 161, 197)}),
                        new ColorBlend(new Color[] { Color.FromArgb(177, 222, 84), Color.FromArgb(150, 209, 35), Color.FromArgb(118, 187, 10)}),
                        new ColorBlend(new Color[] { Color.FromArgb(255, 170, 78), Color.FromArgb(245, 139, 27), Color.FromArgb(201, 102, 3)}),
                        new ColorBlend(new Color[] { Color.FromArgb(243, 147, 213), Color.FromArgb(237, 111, 197), Color.FromArgb(221, 72, 174)}),
                        new ColorBlend(new Color[] { Color.FromArgb(194, 143, 236), Color.FromArgb(175, 106, 227), Color.FromArgb(153, 76, 211)})
        };
        Palette my = new Palette("MyPalette", myColors);
        myChart1.CustomPalettes.Add(my);
        myChart1.SeriesPalette = "MyPalette";
