Hi everybody,

I want to change the color pallet of my diagram which gets produced automatically.
my color pallet would be the following: (RGB(0, 0, 201), RGB(0, 149, 255), RGB(13, 189, 186), RGB(103, 187, 110), RGB(157, 115, 247), RGB(217, 87, 118), RGB(244, 156, 52), RGB(248, 223, 90), RGB(244, 221, 186), RGB(127, 127, 127), RGB(140, 80, 8), RGB(0, 0, 100))

My code for producing the chart is the following

VBA Code:
    Dim DiagrammObjekt As chartObject
    Dim DatenBereich As range
    Dim DiagrammBereich As range
    Dim colorPalette() As Variant
    
       ' Definiere den Datenbereich
    Set DatenBereich = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Tabelle1").range("C202:BD213")

    ' Definiere den Bereich für das Diagramm
    Set DiagrammBereich = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Tabelle1").range("A207")

    ' Erstelle das Liniendiagramm
    Set DiagrammObjekt = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Tabelle1").ChartObjects.Add( _
        Left:=DiagrammBereich.Left, _
        Width:=500, _
        Top:=DiagrammBereich.Top, _
        Height:=300)

    ' Fülle das Diagramm mit Daten aus dem Datenbereich
    With DiagrammObjekt.chart
        .SetSourceData Source:=DatenBereich
        .ChartType = xlLine ' Ändere den Diagrammtyp hier nach Bedarf
        .HasTitle = True
        .ChartTitle.Text = "1. Diagramm"
    End With

Thanks for your help!
 

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
I don't understand how you define 'color palette' so I'm not going to try give you a specific answer, only to offer a method that I often use when programming charts: Use the macro recorder to record yourself manually making whatever change to the chart it is that you want, then study the recorded macro VBA code to understand the needed syntax. Once understood, use that knowledge to modify the macro you are working on.
