how to give different colours

[bhaskar]

Hi,
i have created a vertical bar chart with 2 categories but, a single set of data. I get same color to all categories because, the set is same. How do i get different colors?

You can use the setCategoriesPaint(...) method in the renderer (inherited from the AbstractCategoryItemRenderer class. When the paint array is non-null, and there is only one series, the renderer cycles through the paint array to get the color for each item in the series.

I'm able to give different category colors for a vertical bar chart, but it doesn't seem to work for vertical statistical bar charts. Is there a way to have different category colors using VerticalStatisticalBarRenderer?

Hi,
I am not able to understand how to use this setCategoriesPaint(.. ). Could someone give me an example.

Thanks,
