Graph palettes in PowerPoint using VB

N

Neil Charles

When I use import file from Microsoft Graph in powerpoint
to import an Excel chart, the graph's palette in
powerpoint resets to the default.

I've got a custom palette in Excel (that doesn't match the
Powerpoint template) and would like to use a macro to
recreate this palette in the powerpoint graph (or get this
palette in any way that doesn't involve recreating it by
hand every time) - Any ideas?

Thanks,

Neil.

Sorry for the bad news, but the MS Graph palettes are not
customizable. The eight MS Graph swatches that are used for charts by
default do change but are driven by the eight colors in the PPT
palette. If you want your custom XL palettes to show in PPT as those
colors you have to paste in the XL chart itself.
