How to Set the Default Colors for Tables and Visualizations

You can customize the colors shown in Appearance > Table Styles and the colors used by default in visualizations through the Page Master. The same color scheme is shared, so if you change the defaults for your charts, those changes will also appear in your tables and will affect the options that are available when changing your table style.

Requirements

• One or more drag-and-drop tables and/or visualizations. To further customize the colors and fonts of visualizations, see How to Create and Apply a Visualization Template.

Method

1. Click Page Master at the bottom of the screen.
2. Select the Title and Content page on the left-hand side (or any master page with a chart on it).
3. Click on the chart on the page.
4. Use the selections in the Appearance tab of Properties .

You can see these default colors in the Normal (click Exit Paste Master) view in the Table style menu in the Appearance tab in Properties when a table is selected:

And on any visualization:
