I'm having trouble adjusting the color of the strokes for the Kendo UI column chart. Here is the code:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <div id="chart"></div> <script src="js/thirdParty/jquery.js"></script> <script src="js/thirdParty/kendo.all.min.js"></script> <script> $(function () { var data, dataSource; data = [{ type: "C1", amount: 100, year: 2008, color: "red" }, { type: "C2", amount: 120, year: 2008, color: "blue" }, { type: "C2", amount: 50, year: 2009, color: "blue" }, { type: "C1", amount: 10, year: 2010, color: "red" }, { type: "C1", amount: 120, year: 2011, color: "red" }, { type: "C2", amount: 50, year: 2011, color: "blue" }]; dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({ data: data, group: { field: "type" }, sort: { field: "year" } }); $("#chart").kendoChart({ dataSource: dataSource, series: [{ type: "column", field: "amount", categoryField: "year", name: "#= group.value #", colorField: "color" }], }) }); </script> </body> </html>
I am trying to make “C1” red and “C2” blue , but the chart is displayed as in the following screenshot:

It would be helpful to evaluate any pointers in the right direction.
