Advanced dialog

This dialog appears when you click the Advanced button in the Color List dialog or Line Pattern List dialog. It helps you to define certain pattern to some specific values in a chart to make the same value the same effect, and varies according to different source it is opened from. Note that this feature does not apply to surface 3-D, gauge bubble 2-D and all scatter chart types, and the settings in the dialog have higher priority than the ones in the Color List dialog or Line Pattern List dialog.


If it is opened by clicking the Advanced button in the Color List dialog, the options in the dialog are as follows. See the dialog.

Adds a new value line.

Removes the selected value.

Values

Fill

Specifies the color schema for the pattern.

To specify the color, click the color image button and select a color swatch or type the hexadecimal value of the desired color (e.g. 0xff0000) in the text box directly. If the color swatches cannot meet your requirement, you can click More Colors on the color palette to open the Pick a Color dialog, with which you can set a full range of color, or click More Fill Effects to specify a fill effect in the Fill Effects dialog.
