发明名称 Method, system, and computer-readable medium for applying a global formatting scheme to a chart in an electronic document
摘要 A method, system, and computer-readable medium are provided for applying a global formatting scheme to a chart in an electronic document. According to a system, a chart application program receives a selection of a chart object in the electronic document and a document theme. The document theme includes a combination of formatting schemes including a color scheme, a font scheme, and a style matrix. The chart application program then automatically applies the selected document theme to the selected chart object in the electronic document. In applying the selected document theme to the selected chart object, the chart application program automatically updates a number of properties of the chart object including color, font, line, effect, and fill. The chart application further enables a user to modify a selected chart style in the document theme by modifying the elements related to the selected chart style and saving the chart type of the selected chart object and the modified chart style as a custom chart template to a file. When a user opens the file, the chart application automatically updates an existing chart template gallery to include the custom chart template.
