Visual Report: Automatically assign colors to the chart based on the last settings used

    Hi

    is it possible that all results of my form are automatically visible when creating a visual report? And is it possible to predefine colors for the charts e.g. answers "yes = always green", "maybe = always yellow", "no = always red"?

    At the moment it seems that neither one nor the other option is possible. Am I right?

    Unfortunately, you will have to add the questions you want to display in the report manually. Also, not all fields are supported with the charts. Check this guide for more info: http://www.jotform.com/help/187-How-to-create-a-Visual-Reports-with-your-Form-Submissions 

    Yes, it is possible to assign colors on the charts. Just open the chart settings then assign the colors.

    Hope this helps

    Hi 

    thanks for your quick reply. I understand that I can change the color for different answers in one chart. But I want to display same color for same answer in every chart i add to report. Otherwise it will take me hours to get a qualified report :-)

    Thanks. 

    I understood what you mean now but unfortunately, that's not currently possible.

    I'll escalate this as a feature request instead so hopefully, this feature will be added in the future.

    Hi, thanks so much. But being honest I`m wondering why no-one else needs such a configuration?!

    Anyway - thanks for your quick reply. have a nice day

    That probably depends on the user's form, some users have unique fields on their forms so they do not want to use the same color for all of them.

    But I understood that this isn't the case on your form and maybe some others so hopefully your requests will be implemented in the future.

    P.S. Please ignore the test submission I did on your form
