Color palette selection

[onlyjazz]

I'm collecting data in elastic search. the mapping looks like this:

"mappings" : {
"dosing": {
"properties" : {
"sitename" : {"type" : "string", "index" : "not_analyzed"},
"subjectlabel" : {"type" : "string", "index" : "not_analyzed"},
"visitnumber" : {"type" : "integer"},
"metric" : {"type" : "string"},
"what" : {"type" : "string"},
"risk" : {"type" : "string"},
}}}
Risk is a string with a low, mid or high value - using an Items panel - I produce a chart with 3 bars - for High, Mid and Low

I have not been able to figure out how to change the colors of the bars - I'm using the default green, yellow and blue - which doesn't really work for high, mid and low risk.

I suppose I could hack the CSS and replace the colors with a different palette but it would be more elegant if there a bar.color property one could set
Ideas?
Thanks
Danny

Hi,

I will work on it soon. We will create a new panel (as a new dashboard settings tab) to configure a list of (key, color) pairs. We also think of a method to give the same color if data have the same key/name, but not in the configuration table we created.

Implem may be visible at https://github.com/meltygroup/kibana soon.

Hi,

I'm waiting for some informations about kibana4 before starting the development on this feature.

[w33ble]

Seems similar to #1304. Color selection in Kibana 4 is still a point of contention and will be getting a revision in Beta 2 I believe, so this should get discussed in the not too distant future.

[timroes]

The color discussion seems to be split about multiple issues. Beta 2 didn't had the function for coloring charts individual. (I guess the red/green example for high-low/ok-fail/etc. stuff would be the most common use case.) Is this still in consideration or already worked on?

[JulienPalard]

I'm just dropping this here to centralize informations about colors:
Default palette works badly with an overlapped area chart: green, light blue and blue are pretty indistinctible while overlaped.

But I'm not sure there is a color set that plays whell visually with overlapping ^-^

From @kkirsche in #3193

X-Ref Accessibility: #3129 | X-Ref twbs/bootstrap#14744

Saw this come up during the WebEx chat and wanted to put up an issue at least so it's something that can be considered. Specifically minimum contrast levels per the W3's accessibility guidelines

Normal:

Protanopia / Deuteranopia Colorblindness:

👍 ETA on this ?

[cphoover]

+1 this is a very important one... particularly because we have colorblind users

[ghempton]

👍 unfortunate that a big blocker for a lot of people moving from 3 to 4 revolves around aesthetics

[naneau]

Without a way to use clear marker colors, it's hard to create charts that show problems at a glance, definitely 👍

[jasonmartens]

Even for those of us that are not colorblind, having random colors assigned to a chart makes them much harder to understand than kibana3. I wouldn't call that an aesthetic issue, but a bug.

[jvkassi]

I also switch to master build.
Great work guys ! Keep up !! :)

I am really new to elastic search and kibana, and color palette was one of
the first thing I looked for (green/red for indicators). After finding this
issue, I have grabbed the 4.4.0 branch and was able to see the new feature
in action. Great work and many thanks for this really useful work!

FYI this has been released with 4.4, you don't need to +1 it anymore :)

[exhuma]

Thanks @markwalkom. With all the +1s, I completely missed that change. Glad I can finally unsubscribe. The +1s are really generating a lot of noise :(

[kkirsche]

No more + @michaelneale as this has been released.

[sumit-gupta-sgt]

@rashidkpc Is this available on Tile Map?
I mean coloring i am able to see ..but i am not able to modify coloring.

Thanks,
Sumit

[lukasolson]

@sumit-gupta-sgt It's currently not supported on the tile map. See #5517.

Fully support this feature. Without custom colors bound to specific values and ranges it is not possible to create truly informative dashboards and KPI panels

For everyone still commenting on this feature, this was released in kibana 4.4.

[AliAqdasShah]

+1. Should be available for metrics visualization based on value from another metrics as color range

[mruthun]

+1 Choosing my own color individually and different patterns in the pallet will help. Also to select the color for max value.
