This property gets or sets the color of many chart elements, and can be set to any ARGB value.

If this property is set for both a data point and its series then the data point's color will have precedence. The series color will only be used for data points that do not define their own color.

For a detailed explanation on how data is drawn please see the Appearance of Data topic.

If a custom legend item is using a marker then this property will determine the marker color, unless the MarkerColor property is set (MarkerColor then has precedence).

This property will be ignored if the Image property specifies an image to be used for the legend item symbol.

Note: This property is applicable only to LegendCells, with a CellType of SeriesSymbol, or Image.
