  1. The only way to do this would be to remove the fill from the other 2d components that you don't want Data vis to fill and leave the fill of the objects that you want coloured.

    And then set Data Vis to apply a fill.

    it does not apply fill to classes.

  2. Hi Chris, it does not shorten the list only what objects get selected.

    We are working on Data Vis, there is an existing enhancement request to update the list using criteria.

    All the best

    You can also pick individual colors in the DV dialog, and then export that as a palette to make it easier to reuse your chosen colors in a future DV scheme.

    Thanks Rick, was not aware of that.

  4. In terms of a long list of symbols I also add additional criteria such as class and/or Record Format is present or even 'Field Value' is. Or even Symbol name 'Contains'.

    Providing you have setup your file and workflow diligently then extra criteria can be applied which can help you filter further.
     

  5. Hi Wood,

    Autocolour can choose from a manufacturer pallet for a start and end colour. If there is not much difference between the colours try choosing colours that are further apart on the colour spectrum.

    Below are three screenshots notice the start and end colours and the different results.
