We have some VB code (.bas files macros) which we execute to create
PowerPoint presentations. We have been using PowerPoint 2000 and the
line
chartProxy.PlotArea().Fill().ForeColor().SchemeColor = 21
gives us a gray background for a chart. After switching to PowerPoint
2003 we have found that the background is now green. We cycled through
the different color schemes and found 15 and 46 give us shades of gray
slightly different than the gray that we get with 21 using PowerPoint
2000.
The questions we have are:
- The color schemes appear changed in PowerPoint 2003 as versus
PowerPoint 2000. Is there any documentation available anywhere
regarding this change?
- We've tried to get the exact gray which we get using PowerPoint 2000
and 21 as the scheme color by using RGB values but keep getting errors.
We've tried the following:
chartProxy.PlotArea().Fill().ForeColor.RGB = RGB(0,0,128)
and some other variations and could not make it work. We are not VB
programmers and so are not sure what we are doing wrong. We don't have
access to Visual Studio and are trying to run this code from within the
VB editor in PowerPoint. Any help would be much appreciated!
