Custom CSS in Vitara Charts

If you use custom CSS styles in Vitara Charts, no presentational characteristics (such as fill, stroke, font styles, and so on) are applied to the chart SVG. Instead, CSS is used to apply the design.

To customize your styles, edit the customStyles.css file and add your own CSS rules.

The customStyles.css file is located at,

tomcat/webapps/MicroStrategy/plugins/VitaraCharts/custom
