Hello vera,

First you must disable the Gradient of Chart, after, you be able to change the color of tChart1 as do in next line of code:

Code: Select all

         tChart1.Panel.Gradient.Visible = false; 
            tChart1.Panel.Color = Color.White; 
Thanks

Hi Sandra,

I have tried as you said but it is changing when it is displaying and when i save chart then it appearing totally block. My actual problem is like this. I have the chart design is like as shown below in attachment 1 (chart design).

This design is when i change panel color according to your suggestion. It is changing the outer side of chart not inside of chart.(i mean inside the block label). I want to change the color of chart inside the block label.
when i save the above chart after updating chart with some values then it is looking like in the attachment 2(chart1).

Hello Vera,

If you want change the Chart background color, you need change the color of back walls or make back wall doesn't visible. Please, taking a look at my suggestions codes to change colors:

1.- If you want wall isn't visible, need change color of panel, too:

Code: Select all

  //Change Panel Color
            tChart1.Panel.Gradient.Visible = false; 
            tChart1.Panel.Color = Color.Red;
            //Do doesn't visible Wall Back
            tChart1.Walls.Back.Visible = false;
            tChart1.Walls.Back.Color = Color.Red; 
2.- if you want only change color of back wall you must do next:

Code: Select all

  //Change color visible wall back
            tChart1.Walls.Back.Gradient.Visible = false;
            tChart1.Walls.Back.Color = Color.Red; 
I hope will helps.

Thanks,
