How do I keep chart colours when duplicating a widget? | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hi all, new user here...any advice would be amazing!
I find that any time I duplicate a widget (say, a breakdown bar) which I have set to my desired colours - I lose these colours as soon as I link this duplicated widget to a new variable.
So if I have, say, multiple 10-point scale variable widgets, I have to set the colours in every one of them individually.
is there a way to stop this? The widgets duplicate just fine (same colours) but as soon as I update the variable source, the colours revert to a default.

This cannot be controlled. But if you hardcode the colors in the theme section. It would only pick those colors but the order still cannot be controlled.
You can mention it in the Custom colors palette.

Thanks Deepak , very much appreciated!


MikeBot - I think it's definitely worth searching the product idea section to see if someone has suggested this and, if not, please suggest it! It's a pain point for me and my team, as well!!


CMurph definitely! I had to set up dozens of the same charts recently, with just the source input variable changing - had to fix the colours on each and took forever!
