Uniform Diagram Legend Colouring

Hello, 

I have created a lobby with several trackers and realised that the colour coding for the legend of the pie diagrams is not uniform. 

The red colour always seems to be applied to the largest pie segment rather than the same category.

 

In the example screen-shot the red segment displays “WorkRequest” on the upper diagra and “Released” on the lower diagram. On the lower middle diagram the red segment is “UnderPreparation” on the lower right the red segment is “WorkDone”, which is very confusing for users looking at these diagrams.
 

Is there a way to set it up so “WorkReleased” (and all the other categories) is always the same colour in each diagram?

 

Thank you very much for your help!

Hi Adrian, 

This is not a perfect fix but it improves the usability somewhat. 

In the data source designer you can create a custom order by with a case statement, 

Case
 When state = ‘WorkRequest’ then 1
 When state = ‘WorkDone’ then 2
 When state = ‘Started’ then 3
 Else 4
END

In the element designer you can’t use top-n options in the formatting or it won’t work

As long as there is always a value for each state the colour order will stay the same across all elements. 


This works in apps10 at least :)
