"Chart" View Rename Option and Changing Colors
Good morning Wrike Community!
I wanted to send out the want to be able to name the charts you can create in the "Chart" view in Wrike. For those of us that create charts for high level viewing, and want some stuff be self-explanatory about a chart in being able to name a specific chart so that it reflects the type of data that it is showing would be wonderful. For instance, I have a project that I set the "Chart" view as the default view, and in it I have created 3 different charts. All of my charts are titled "Task: All - Status", and of course that is the nomenclature of the report view I selected when creating the charts.
The other thing that would be awesome to get would be the ability to change the color of the pie chart slices to whatever colors you want them to be. Specifically, the colors do reflect the color of the statuses I gave my tasks, but once I made the chart to reflect several different categories at the same time, the color selected for the slices became random. The issue that I ran into is the statuses I made for "Addressed" and "Not Addressed" both were the same color, and I had to consolidate a category in order to get them back to two separate and distinct colors.
Thank you!
Hey, Ian , and thank you for your feedback! Have you tried to use new dashboards from the Labs to achieve the same you're doing with the chart view? You can arrange and rename widgets there, while the chart view is designed more for exploratory data analysis.
You can adjust the colors used on the charts by changing the colors assigned to the corresponding values of custom fields. In that case, slices representing specific values should have colors assigned to them. Does it help?

Hello Vladimir Bugay and thank you for your response!
Let me test out what you are referring to in your response to my post to see if that works for me, and I will respond again to your response letting you know my assessment of it. It sounds like it will do everything I need for right now.
All of that being said, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad idea to still include the features I am in want of in the "Chart" view in Wrike, as it would only make the feature more advanced and therefore more potentially useful.
Thank you!
Thanks Ian Edwards, noted. Do indeed keep us posted here 👍
