Adding a series style

Every chart style contains a collection of series styles. There are 20 styles by default. You can add styles if more are needed. The styles are applied, in order, to the chart's series. If the number of series in a chart exceeds the number of defined styles, the styles repeat.

To add a series style:

  1. On the Chart tab, in the Series group, click the dialog box launcher.
  2. Click Add. The new series style is added to the end of the existing styles.
  3. Format the series style as desired.
  4. Click OK.
  5. Click Save Changes.
