How does one go about indicating a colored border in an Area Chart Sparkline, as seen in this example:

I've been able to configure the light blue foreground, by setting the Palette property to Custom and adding the color RGB(204,220,235) to the CustomPaletteColors collection, but there doesn't seem to be a border-related property for the data series. I also tried adding several other colors to the collection, but that had no effect.
The border properties—BorderColor, BorderStyle and BorderWidth—operate on the cell, not the series.
OK, I found it.
It's on the Series Properties dialog, here:

Since conditional format does not allow setting borders, is it possible to create a script and border a row based on the color of a cell / row?
If so how?
I found similar scripts, but no scripts based on background color.
I need something to get started / push in the right direction....
You can use Range.getBackground() to get the background color from one cell, or Range.getBackgrounds() to get the background colors from multiple cells.
You can then use that information to set your desired borders, using Range.setBorder.
I am using Telerik Reporting and creating reports with Report Designer.
What I want to do is set fixed colors for specific series elements.
For instance, in a monthly financial bar chart, if the series is Company, I want to set ElectricityCost as red and WaterCost as Blue all the time. The problem is that not every bar has all types of the cost, and for a specified time range, not all types will be included, which causes that the color legend varies.
I've tried some approaches but failed.
Is there anyone who knows how can I achieve this goal?
Finally I find how to set the color for specific series.
The data points' color can be set by using the Graph.Series.BarSeries.DataPointConditionalFormatting property.
The legend markers' color can be set by using the Graph.Series.BarSeries.LegendItem.MarkConditionalFormatting property.
Besides the color, other styles can also be set so that for a certain series, the style will not change even no data is displayed after the filtering.
I've gotten the hang of creating charts/colors and grouping data but I can't seem to figure out how to outline each grouping in my report.
I've got data built for my chart - what I would like to have it appear as -- is like this:
I'm not picky on the color, but that's the least of my worries. I can't figure out how to create the outline, but by group rather then by line.
For your TOP Border Style, use the expression:
=IIF(Fields!TourDate.Value = PREVIOUS(Fields!TourDate.Value), "None", "Solid")
This just checks to see if your TourDate field is different from the Previous row.
The default would need to be solid. You can use it with the border color (black) instead if you want the grey border normally.
Are there any Settings to avoid having overlapping labels in a Pie Chart in SSRS?
I have several Charts with the same Problem, if the Slices are too small the Text will overlap. Here is a Picture of my Problem and a possible way as how i want it to be:
EDIT
edited the 3D Options so the Labels fit in like I wanted them to be. But another Problem occurred when setting rotation and inclination to zero, the colors aren't as intensive as they where before:
You can try this..
1)On the design surface, right-click outside the pie chart but inside the chart borders and select Chart Area Properties.The Chart Area Properties dialog box appears.
2)On the 3D Options tab, select Enable 3D.
3)If you want the chart to have more room for labels but still appear two-dimensional, set the Rotation and Inclination properties to 0.
to solve this:
go to the Chart Area Properties,
the Chart Area Properties dialog box appears.
expand Area3DStlye
For Shading Property select: "Simple"
This is most likely caused by an emulation of a diffuse lighting effect. The following code worked in the former dundas chart for area charts:
Chart1.ChartAreas("Default").Area3DStyle.Light = LightStyle.None;
should be something similar for the pies.
[Note: The first 3 parts of this is the same text as answered by Swathi, but there was a follow-up comment question that was not known that I discovered the answer to concerning the colors looking muted after making it 3-D. I would add a comment but I don't have enough karma now.]
1)On the design surface, right-click outside the pie chart but inside the chart borders and select Chart Area Properties.The Chart Area Properties dialog box appears.
2)On the 3D Options tab, select Enable 3D.
3)If you want the chart to have more room for labels but still appear two-dimensional, set the Rotation and Inclination properties to 0.
4) If you want the colors to not be muted when using 3-D to simulate 2-D, under Appearance/Area3DStyle change the Shading to None.
I am having a problem placing a border around a single TextBox. For some reason when I put a border around it, SSRS Applies the border to plenty of other TextBoxes in the same area.
I have a TextBox that is part of a Group That is part of Tablix. I am doing the following
Right clicking the TextBox
Clicking TextBox Properties
Clicking Border
Clicking the outline preset / manually clicking each border in the preview.
Clicking OK.
After I do this, the border style is applied to any TextBox this TextBox I right clicked on touches.
I thought it might have something to do with the TextBox being in the group, so as an experiment, I got rid of the borders and set just the back color. That worked as expected. - Just the single TextBox had the back color.
This doesn't make any sense. Why aren't borders being applied to the single TextBox?
Today, during my search I saw your question as I was having the same problem.
I solved this problem for myself and now I am submitting an answer here so that others can use it.
Follow these steps:
Click on TextBox to which you have to give boarder.
Then, go to the Property Sheet which is on the right side of your IDE window. It will show all properties of the selected textbox.
Change Border property value in the Property Sheet
Now, you will see that the Border value(s) you specified in the Property Sheet has been applied only to the selected textbox, not to other text boxes.
Hope it will work for others just like it worked for me.
