Built a Perspective XY chart and wanted to display the text data in the column field. Someone helped me by adding a series with render value of step line. I want to know how to change the color of the text but cant figure it out.

Please edit your question to add in the Perspective (I think) tag and state clearly which chart component you're using. It looks like XY Chart.
