Change the look of bars, wedges and more in Keynote on Apple Vision Pro
A data series is a set of related values in a chart — for example, all the bars of the same colour in a bar chart, or a single line in a line chart.
You can emphasise trends in your chart by changing the appearance, position or spacing of one or more of the data series.
Apply a different style to a chart
Tap the chart, then tap
Tap Chart, then tap one of the chart styles.
Change colours, shadows, spacing and other options
You can change the look of a chart by adding colours, textures, shadows and more. You can change the look of the entire chart, or change individual data series in a chart to differentiate them from other series. For bar charts, for example, you can fill the bars in each series with a different colour or a colour gradient, apply a different outline (stroke) style and more. For scatter charts, you can change the symbol that represents each point and add connection lines between the points.
Note: You can’t change the look of a single data point in a series (a single bar in a bar chart, for example). All changes you make apply to every data point in the series.
Tap the chart, then tap
Do one of the following:
Apply a coordinated colour palette to all the data series: Tap Chart, then tap a thumbnail at the top of the Chart tab. All the colours in the chart change at once.
