# Color Templates
|
|
|
|
**Color Templates** define a list of Colors to be used for **Aggregate Graphs**
|
|
in Cacti. As you add **Graphs** to an **Aggregate Graph**, you need to
|
|
distinguish one **Graph** from the next within the **Aggregate Graph**. These
|
|
**Color Templates** are a list of colors that will be looped through in Round
|
|
Robin fashion to render the **Aggregate Graph**.
|
|
|
|
Color selection rotates across member graphs for each item to which a color
|
|
template is assigned. It uses the member-graph index modulo the number of
|
|
colors; it does not advance once for every graph item or legend entry.
|
|
|
|
For example, assign an eight-color template to one plotted series shared by 16
|
|
member graphs. Each color is selected twice for that series. Additional series
|
|
can have their own assigned color templates, while uncolored legend items do
|
|
not add steps to this rotation.
|
|
|
|
Below, you can see the four standard **Color Templates**. From the Actions
|
|
drop down you can *Delete*, *Duplicate*, or *Sync Aggregates* for the selected
|
|
**Color Templates**. As with other Cacti objects, you will not be allowed to
|
|
*Delete* a **Color Template** in use.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
In the image below, you can see the **Color Template** edit screen. This simple
|
|
screen allows you to add, remove and re-order colors in the list.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Shown in the image below, only Cacti **Colors** are allowed to be selected for
|
|
Aggregate **Color Templates**. The **Color** drop down can be typed into if you
|
|
wish to search through the list of approximately 340 legacy and *Named Colors*.
