Color Formatting Reference
This article discusses color options for the user interface.
Text Font Colors
Text color formatting is applicable to tables and headline reports only.
You can display report metric values in one of the following colors by inserting the color, between brackets [ ], at the start of the custom number syntax. For example:
[Blue]#,#.##
Available color codes:
- Black
- Blue
- Cyan
- Green
- Magenta
- Red
- Yellow
- White
You can also use hexadecimal color codes with the following syntax:
[color=99AE00]#,#.##
Do not insert a hash (#) symbol before the hexadecimal value, which voids your color formatting.
Cell Background Color
You can use hexadecimals to change the background color of cells with the following syntax:
[backgroundcolor=00FF00]#,#.##
To combine background color and font color syntax:
[color=99AAEE][backgroundcolor=000000]#,#.##
Hexadecimal Color Quick Reference
The following web-safe colors coded may be used in your formatting:
#FF0000 | #FF6600 | #FFFF00 | #00FF00 | #00FFFF | #0000FF | #FF00FF | #000000 | #FFFFFF | #888888 |
For more information on hexadecimal colors, see HTML Color Codes.
Default Chart Colors
Chart colors are often presented as two-color gradients between a primary and secondary color. In cases where there is no gradient, such as a line, the primary color is used. In some cases, secondary colors are used for highlighting.
