standardizing line chart colours

I have a report which is over 8 pages and contains many line charts about countries.
I am currently maunally setting each country to a specific colour on every line chart

Is there a way to do this once and then use some coding to make sure that the the chart lines are the same colour for each series (country)

 

I have 32 countries in each chart which the user can select and deselect to keep the chart meaningful, and its pretty tedious having to set this many colours each time

 

I can only use Format painter on the same page, not across different pages - unless I'm missing something!!!

  • Hello LUCASM ,

     

    try the format painter, you click on the formatted chart, then click on the format painter brush and then on the chart you want to format.

      Hi Idrissshatila 

       

      I'm pretty sure that the format painter does not work across tabs.
      When I have tried to do this on one tab as soon as I click on anothe the format painter function looses its ability to paste.
