Pivot charts formatting
Hi,
I want to change the formatting imposed by default in a pivot chart and I want that changed formatting to be retained permanently. For example, for my bar chart, for the different series I have selected colours / patterns but every time I refresh the pivot table / chart; excel falls back to its own colour coding. Any way to get around this? Many thanks in anticipation. |

Pivot charts formatting
Not directly. The only way to simulate this is to record a macro of the
formatting changes that you make and then set it up to run whenever the PivotChart calculates. Assuming your pivot chart is on a seperate sheet, right click on sheet tab and put something like this in: Option Explicit Private Sub Chart_Calculate() 'Insert your recorded macro here 'of the formatting changes that you need done. 'This will located in one of your modules End Sub -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "DKS" wrote: Hi, I want to change the formatting imposed by default in a pivot chart and I want that changed formatting to be retained permanently.
