Hello,
I'm trying to use a custom palette for the series in my bar chart because the Telerik-skin seems to contain only 6 default colors.
But when I create a custom palette the way shown below, the first 7 bar series are getting the default colors. Only series 8 and 9 are in the colors I created.
With a pie chart (1 series with 9 items) everything works fine.
Does anybody know this problem?
Best regards
Rayko

Hello Rayko,
You need to set
RadChart.SkinsOverrideStyles = false;
That should do the trick.

Hello Joshua,
Unfortunately that doesn't work. I've already tried it before.

Hello Rayko,
Please, configure the series palette before creating the series. That is -- move the call to SetSeriesColors() method before the call to CreateBar().

Hello Ves,
I've set SkinsOverrideStyles="false" and SetSeriesColors() before CreateBar(). With no effect. The first 7 colors of the bar chart are still from Telerik skin (7th same as first).

Hello Ves,
Thank you. That was it!
It doesn't matter if I set SkinsOverrideStyles or use SetSeriesColors() before CreateBar(). All I have to do is using ColorBlend ;-}
