Link Chart Column Color To Tab Color

Nov 6, 2006

I want to be able to link the colors of 8 differnet TABS of individual worksheets that have each been colored differently to the colors of individual columns of a chart - being a summary chart of information in another worksheet that has come from seperate worksheets within the same workbook. So that if someone was to change the color of any tab then the color of the corrosponding color of a column in the chart would change automatically if the color of a TAB is changed.

Color Changing Column Chart

May 9, 2008

I am trying to create a chart that will show each month of the year's workload based on orders due for each month. I have all of the information needed on a spreadsheet to chart this into a simple chart showing the load, however, I want a little extra on the charting to show me additional details.

I would like for my chart to also display the available man hours for each month against the workload. I would like for the available man hours to be displayed by color changes in each month bar column of the graph.

So if I had 1000 hours of work in the month of April and only 960 man hours available in April it would have shown me throughout the month as the chart grew that I was "Green" for all hours below 860. The as the chart grew past 860 that portionof the chart changed to "Orange" telling me that the hours were soon to be full. Once it reached 960 that part of the chart would turn "Red" as an indication that we have more workload than we can complete for that month. This would be useful for me as an overtime tool, as well as for review for additional man hours or a decrease in man hours.

Background Color In Column Chart

Dec 22, 2009

I have a column chart that goes 0-100%. The back wall is red from 0-60%, yellow from 60-80%, and green from 80-100%.

To do this, I shaded some blank cells to the same proportional shape, did a screen capture, saved that image as a file, then imported it back in as the background.

Problem is, those color breakpoints (60%,80%) may change, and that process is a pain. Is there an easier way to do this such that if I change the values the background will change automatically based on the shading of some cells?

Color Column Charts Based On Font Color Data Cells

Oct 27, 2009

I have attached the relevant spreadsheet for which I need to alter the color of the columns based on Site number ( Sheet 1). % Mortality will be represented in the Y-Axis, and the Site numbers would be on the X-Axis. All columns (% Mortality) except one will be of the same color, and the one of a different color will indicate a specific site. As an example, site 86 is colored differently. The way I require the chart to look is shown on Sheet 1.

After reading through some great posts on Ozgrid, I managed to do this using conditional formatting (Sheet 2), but that sort of falls short because I am required to add a data table to the chart, and the parameter that is indicated by the column bars happens to appear twice in the data table.

I was wondering if this can be automated maybe using VBA, but with the possibility of simply matching the color of columns with the font color of respective entry in the data series.

VBA To Set Tab Color For A Chart

Feb 21, 2014

I'd like the tab color for a chart to automatically change to yellow if the value of a cell in another sheet is 1, otherwise stay 'no color'. Actually have several such charts but want each one to take its cue from different cell (I suppose I just copy and adjust the macro?)

Excel 2007 :: Changing Bar Series Color To Adjacent Cell Font Color

Aug 8, 2012

I am trying to use VBA in Excel 2007 to change bar chart series colors. I have found a few posts that link it to a cell background, but I'm struggling to find one that does the font color.

It would be great if I could change the bar chart series to match the color of the text in the A column, so that if I highlighted the value in A1 and changed the text color to orange for whatever reason, the chart updates the value of 1.2 to an orange bar (see below).

T. A1 B1

Sample 1 1.2

Sample 2 2.1

Sample 3 1.7

Sample 4 5.6

Color Cell Fonts Based On Text Color Of TextBox Controls On UserForm

Apr 11, 2008

I have got a userform with lots of controls,

One of the action's on a large group of the controls is the same but except for one number

here is an example

If TextBox107.ForeColor = 255 Then ActiveCell. Offset(0, 53).Font.ColorIndex = 3
If TextBox108.ForeColor = 255 Then ActiveCell.Offset(0, 54).Font.ColorIndex = 3
If TextBox109.ForeColor = 255 Then ActiveCell.Offset(0, 55).Font.ColorIndex = 3

This makes a cell that correlates to the textbox red if the text in the textbox is red.

Now, I loads of these textboxes that all need to run the same code with just the Offset value one digit higher than the last and I was hoping I could create a loop to avoid a huge block of code but I can't work out how to make a constant that will +1 with each loop.

Also, can I assume that a loop will start with the control with the lowest number i.e. Textbox1 and then work its way through the rest of them in order?

Conditionally Color Stacked Bar Chart

Oct 9, 2007

I would like to display 50 sequences, S_1 ..S_50, with stacked bars. Every sequence can contain 5 different events, E_1 .. E_5, in a random order. Every event has a certain duration, t. Lets say the first two sequences are as follows (duration time is in brackets)

S_1:
E_3(200), E_1(150), E_2(300), E_4(500), E_5(300)
S_2:
E_1(200), E_4(150), E_1(300), E_5(500), E_2(300), E_2(300)
...

How do I get Excel to display all Sequences in one graph as a function of time, with the bar-stack-color displaying the kind of event. So if E_3 would be red and E_1 blue we would see

S_1:
red, blue ...
S_2:

Creating Chart With Segments Another Color?

Jul 15, 2014

I am creating a graph for data that I collected. It was pretty easy to create. The problem is that I want to be able to have certain segments a red color. This is the data that I have

3380
0831
01374
01570
01928
02403
03003
03703
04128
04333
04777
05283
15732
16184
16822
06974
07310
07700
07995
08040
08402
08531
09208
39473
110006
010450
011072
111424
111691
112177
012925

I would like to create a line segment which is easy to do. But I need certain segments to be red. Such as this the line segment between 10006-10450 should be red. And the segment from 11424-11691 should be red too. I have attached my current chart that does not have the red.

VBA - Change Color Of ALL Text In Chart

Dec 21, 2011

I am having a hard time figuring how to change the color of all the different text groups in a chart, header, axis, labels etc, and even the macro recorder has failed me this time - I have recorded the following, where I selected the graph, changed textcolor to white and then ended the recording - but without changing anything in the code, it returns an error on the second line (starting with "with"):

Run-time error '-2147024809 (80070057)':
The value is outside of the boundaries (translated from danish)

ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart1").Activate
With ActiveSheet.Shapes("Chart1").TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Fill
.Visible = msoTrue
.ForeColor.ObjectThemeColor = msoThemeColorBackground1
.ForeColor.TintAndShade = 0
.ForeColor.Brightness = 0
.Transparency = 0
.Solid
End With

From what I have read, it might be something with the textframe2 property.

Changing Bar Color In Chart Based On Value?

Dec 14, 2012

I have a quarterly report that measures the safety performance of the plants in our company using bar charts. One set of 4 charts for the company as a whole and four additional sets of four for each of our divisions for a total of 20 charts.

I would like to change the color of the bars based on whether the location has met (bars colored green) or failed to meet (bars colored red) the goal for that criteria. The company average will be a yellow bar. Of course it can be done manually but that is really slow and tedious.

Is there a way, using VBA or a macro, to change the color of a bar (data point) based on the value of that data point? Can it run through all of the data points in each chart and make those changes based on criteria that I can set for each type of chart?

VBA Color Cells For Gannt Chart

Jan 22, 2007

I have been struggling for some time to find a simple code to color index cells that have two conditions, one being the task owner and the second being the time requirement.
I have a drop down list for populating each row of a gannt chart with the owner, this owner also has an associated number referencing the allocated colour index number.
To the right of the owner is a basic time line with each column represneting days, weeks or whatever measurement.
These columns are populated simply with an "x".
What I want to do is to choose the owner, go across to the time, type in an "x" in the time slots and the cells with an "x" are coloured with the relevant owners colr index.
I have researched the threads, read my text books, looked up the help and found a lot of references which are around the solution but none which nail it.
Looking forward to your assistance.

Conditional Line Chart Color

Jun 26, 2008

I am trying to have the points and the lines connecting them on my line graph be two different colors depending on a value i put in a column next to the chart values.

For example:
x y Variable
1 5 1
2 10
3 16 1
4 5

The points where there is a 1 in the variable column i would like to make a different color from the other points.

I did an extensive search and all i could find was the following:

Sub myChartClass_Calculate()
Dim cht As Object
Dim p As Object
Dim V As Variant
Dim Counter As Integer

However, this uses the values from the chart data, not an outside variable.

Setting Color Of Range Based On Adjacent Cell Color

Nov 1, 2009

This is probably elementary, but I'm struggling and would appreciate any help as I have very little excel VBA experience to draw from.

I have assembled code which changes the cell color based on a value change in Column A. Column A will contain many different groups of repeating values. This code works well and and I have been able to figure out how to limit the number of colors to only 2. The end result is each set of similar values in column A is visually grouped by one of two alternating colors.

The number rows in the data set is variable as the data set is extracted from SAP. The number of columns is fixed.

What I want to do now is set the cell color in columns B through F the same color that was assigned to the row in column A. So if cell A3 is set to colorindex = 6, then I want to set the range of cells B3 to E3 to the same color.

Here is the code I am using to set the color of the cells in Column A:

Change Font Color Based On Adjacent Cell Color

I have two columns. The first one (A) contains cells that have different Fill colors. The second column (B) contains text adjacent to the colored cells. I am trying to change the color of the text in the second column (B) to the corresponding color in the adjacent cell in the first column (A). I don't think conditional formating works well in this situation. I believe the solution would be some sort of macro.

Use One Series To Color Weight Another In Pivot Chart

Jan 19, 2013

I have a data set that I'm trying to present in a pivot chart and am wanting to use one series to color code or weight another series in the chart. For instance, let's say I have different product categories and two metrics for each, a profit margin (expressed as a %) and a revenue figure (expressed as $s). I want the height of individual bars to represent the profit margin but have the level of opaqueness represent the revenue figures...ie the more revenue associated with a product the more opaque it becomes.
