Charts - Legend Colours

[Guest]

I have a Pie Chart and a Legend and I want to match the colours up to
specific colours, i.e. Legeng is..

Red
Amber
Green
Blue

and I want the colours on the Pie to be Red, amber, Green & Blue to match
the legend.

Is this possible ?

I was able to choose the color of the pie pieces by double-clicking the chart
to open up the datasheet then click on the chart again...and then once more
on one pie piece and it should select then right-click and choose the color
you want. Repeat selecting the other pie pieces to choose their colors as
well. The legend will automatically change to reflect these colors.

Thanks for this it worked however I have 4 segments to the pie, but when i'm
in Design mode only 3, hence I can't change the 4th missing one.

You can change the datasheet to include the 4th data segment entering any
dummy data you want. This will allow you to click the 4th pie piece and
choose the color. Hope that helps.
