Each line of a color set file defines the color of one legend item. It is recommended that you avoid editing the color set file manually.

  1. At the Main menu, choose Preferences (Filtered)> Reporter. The Preferences (Filtered) dialog box appears.
  2. In the Reporter tree, choose Reporter > Charts Colors. The Charts Colors pane appears, see Figure 2-8.

  5. To export the current color set to a file, click Export.

    6. A Save As dialog box appears. Browse to the required directory, enter a file name in the File name field, and click Save. The color set is exported.

  6. To Restore the default color set (the predefined colors delivered with the SCA BB Templates package), click Restore Defaults.
  7. To enable the color allocation method used before release 3.5.0, check the Enable legacy coloring mode check box, see Figure 2-9.
