Series.InvertColorIndex property (Excel)
Returns or sets the fill color for negative data points in a series. Read/write.
Syntax
expression.InvertColorIndex
expression A variable that represents a Series object.
Return value
Integer
Remarks
The InvertColorIndex property enables you to set the fill color for negative data points as a color index value from 0 to 56. For more information about color index values, see Adding color to Excel 2007 worksheets by using the ColorIndex property.
Instead of using the InvertColorIndex property, you can use the InvertColor property, which enables you to set the color as a specific numeric, hexadecimal, octal, or RGB color value.
For the InvertColorIndex property to have an effect, the InvertIfNegative property of the Series object must also be set to True.
Example
The following code example sets the fill color of negative data points in the first series of Chart 2 to magenta.
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 2").Activate
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).InvertIfNegative = True
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).InvertColorIndex = 7
