Has anyone out there found or developed some clever way of standardizing the colors used for chart reports? I find it extremely frustrating that I have to continuously change my colors back to my preferred color options (the opposite of the very dull default colors) when reports are edited.
This is something that has bugged me for years and I just haven't invested the time or resources to develop a way to solve it.
Thanks!

You can use the BOL technique to patch a chart after it has rendered.
Colour Palette Generator
https://github.com/google/palette.js/tree/master
Here are 10 colors generated from Paul Tol's qualitative palette using the above library:
chart.series[0].update({
color: 'red'
});This is the default HighChart colors used for series:colors: ['#7cb5ec', '#434348', '#90ed7d', '#f7a35c', '#8085e9', '#f15c80', '#e4d354', '#2b908f', '#f45b5b', '#91e8e1']Here is a color palette generator library:
