How to keep changes in chart colors?

bruno.benavides

I have created dashboards that include charts, for which I have selected specific colors for each category. Data for the charts come from different sheets. However, everytime I add a new row to the source sheet, I have to update manually the range of data in the dashboard. When I try to update the dashboard range, the app loads the default color set and I have to change one by one again. Is there a way of keeping the colors I selected by creating a custom color theme?

Unfortunately not, but it sure would be nice. Feel free to fill out a Product Enhancement Request...

Any update to this? Seems pointless to give us the ability to change colors if it won't stay.

Is this functionality available yet? I really need my red, yellow, green to BE and STAY red, yellow, green.

Is there any update on the functionality described above? Has there already been written a Product Enhancement Request? If yes, could you link it? I would definitely like to upvote it =)

Hi @Lutz

Yes! There has been an update - Your dashboard chart colours should now persist based on the colour mapping you set when a chart is created or modified. Here's more information - NEW! Dashboard chart color persistence

@Genevieve P. I thought I still experienced kind of the same problem. I will be watching it.
