How to change the color of Chart series and legend using .NET

Aspose.Words Product Family

Hello, we develop a feature that creates chart in docx and xlsx at the same time by using Aspose.Words(for docx) and Aspose.Cells(for xlsx) .net products.

We have to customize the style of chart – by using customers` colors, font types and a size for a chart title. This was successful for the Aspose.Cells like:

var seriesIdx = chart.NSeries.Add("$B$2:$B$10", true);
var nSeries = chart.NSeries[seriesIdx];
nSeries.Area.ForegroundColor = System.Drawing.Color.Green;
chart.Legend.Font.Size = 20;
chart.Legend.Font.Name = “Arial”;
etc

We can’t use Aspose.Words.Reporting, because a chart type and style values can’t be hardcoded.
But how can we do that for docx chart in Aspose.Words? Is there such a possibility at all and will it appear in the future? Thanks.

Unfortunately, Aspose.Words does not provide API to get or set the color of chart series and legend. We logged these features as WORDSNET-12640 and WORDSNET-21056 in our issue tracing system. You will be notified via this forum thread once these feature are available.

We apologize for your inconvenience.

The issues you have found earlier (filed as WORDSNET-12275) have been fixed in this Aspose.Words for .NET 21.6 update and this Aspose.Words for Java 21.6 update.
