Hi,

We're using Dashboards to visualize traffic hitting our servers on our different customers. We have limited this to 10 but we have issues with color similarity.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/1/3/13c0a3d2145458f3ecb876f864623c0a2fd9e6e8.png)  
Can this be changed somehow where they differ more from each other to make it easier to see and read?

When clicking the little colored dot in the legend, you can pick another color for the series.

It's possible to overwrite the color on the dashboard level, but I recommend doing this in Visualize and saving the visualization with the updated colors.

Hi,

This works flawlessly, it was very unclear that this actually saves between refreshes if specified. Thank you!
