How do you change the colors that the pie chart uses? Right now it seems to just cycle 5 colors:

orange, yellow, green, blue, magenta

But I'd like to be able to supply it with my own set of colors.

Hi,

The SeriesColors configuration method can be used to change the colors. It accepts as parameter a collection of strings which represent the colors to be applied. For example:
.SeriesColors(new string[] { "#63FFEF", "black", "green", "#FF2C28" })


Kind regards,

Hi:

I want to do the same but dynamically.
My set of colors are included on the data, I would like to set the color array for .SeriesColor dynamically, taking them from the data bound.
Is that possible to do it on the view, inside the telerik component by using razor syntax on a client-side bound pie chart?

Thanks

Hi,

May I know who can I set certain color for each slice in the pie chart?

Is there any way that I can do it in XAML, preferable binding the color for each slice.

Need help urgently!

Thanks and regards,
ML

Hi
I've also got this issue and I would like to extend the range of colors but I would like to understand a few things first.

I'd like the colors I use to be consistent with the theme.
Are the defaults colors linked to the selected theme e.g. Metro?
If yes, could I modify the theme to offer a larger range of colors for this purpose?
If no, what's the best way to extract the theme colors so I can use them in .SeriesColors?

Thanks
Craig
