Hi,

I have a line chart (without markers) and I would like the line to change color based on the value. E.g. when the value is < 0 then the line would be red.
Can this be done at all?

The chart's color highlight only colors the markers on the line chart. But I don't use markers because my chart has over 2000 data points and the chart becomes very ugly and unclear if markers are used.

Does anyone has a solution for this ?

Best Regards,

Mikael

Ooops... I forgot to tell that. I'm using Crystal Reports XI (Product version 11.0.0.1282)

If all else fails, this problem can be solved with our CRChart add-in for Crystal Reports. There are specific macros to dynamically color series lines based on values. You could also set "color bands" on the background of the chart to illustrate similiar effects..
