Value Dependant Background Color

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

 

 

I am sure this is a pretty basic question but I just have not been able to find a solution in the docs or in the forums as of yet.

 

 

 

I have a 3D column chart and I was wondering if it is possible to change the background color (behind each column) on a value by value basis. Perhaps it would be easier to understand if I explained my end goal.

 

 

 

I have a chart that shows year over year change in a variable where each column represents the difference on a given day. To make it easier for users to differentiate between weekdays, weekends, and holidays I would like to have the background color behind the column change based what category it falls into.

 

 

 

Since I am doing such a poor job explaining this perhaps the image below might help, ignore the lines on the chart. I have been able to reproduce all of the aspects of this chart in your fantastic charting program except for the dark gray vertical shading (from top to bottom of graph) which is indicating that the value fell on a weekend. If it helps, the chart covers a 4 week period starting on a sunday (shaded) and ending on a saturday.
