Hello folks, does anyone know how to retrieve the colour of the column in an mschart control. I have a varying number of columns, where the chart creates a colour to represent this. Anyone know how i can get hold of it?

 

Thanks

Ellow again,

 

I finally managed to do it. Its not the nicest looking code but it works so just in case anyone else needed to do it, here it is.

 

Dim colorThing As Color = Color.FromArgb(showResults.AxMSChart1.Plot.SeriesCollection(loopcounterProps).DataPoints(-1).Brush.FillColor.Red, showResults.AxMSChart1.Plot.SeriesCollection(loopcounterProps).DataPoints(-1).Brush.FillColor.Green, showResults.AxMSChart1.Plot.SeriesCollection(loopcounterProps).DataPoints(-1).Brush.FillColor.Blue)
           showResults.RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = colorThing

 

It was needed for a sort of legend style thing which i needed more control.

Chris
