The Dashboard Designer provides the capability to manage colouring of dashboard item elements. You can choose whether to use a global colour scheme providing consistent colours for identical values across the dashboard (e.g. if you have a Pie and a Graph they will have the same colour) or a local colour scheme that provides an independent set of colours for each dashboard item. By default, the Pie dashboard item colours its segments in the following way.
If the Pie dashboard item contains measures (the Values section) and series dimensions (the Series section), only values corresponding to different measures are coloured by hue.
If the Pie dashboard item contains arguments (the Arguments section), different argument values are coloured by hue.
