Chart and Configuration Defaults

Yellowfin 9 has Chart and Report defaults for colors, fonts, styles, padding and other types of visual formatting. These settings impact the default look and feel of your charts and reports without requiring much effort to further customize them. These settings can be enabled while upgrading. See below for description.

  • Configuration level defaults: These are color, fonts and style defaults for reports and charts. Administrators are manually able to update these via the Admin Console Content settings. 
  • Chart defaults: These are default chart formats set up in the Chart builder. This includes settings such as chart axes, legends, sorting, padding, and other visual elements. 


Silent Installer Options

The following options can be used for these settings while upgrading with the Silent Installer.
