Thank you for clarifying. I think your question was answered in this thread a few years ago: > [@Perspective Time Series Chart - Pen Colors](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/perspective-time-series-chart-pen-colors/27479/2): > > Hi @vcgasman, those defaultStyles apply to all charts. To create a unique style for each trend, there is a columns array where you can limit or configure the columns to display in the trend. You’ll need to enter the column key (which is the column name in the series to which the trend is bound), and then you’ll have the ability to apply style to that specific column. You can either give it a color, or you can provide styles for any of the four states (normal, highlighted, selected, and muted)… In short: You have created three trends. In each trend, you create one Column for each key in your data (in your case - two, Temperature and Pressure) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/3/b/3bbd1d86804c6f8abadcdbe930926f145c45e1a9.jpeg) This results in the following plot: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/6/e/6ef240f01cfafacc5aca25bd201d197b75acec97.png) ( _In hindsight, I could’ve picked more distinctive colors, but I hope I helped you out nevertheless_) --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/different-colours-on-time-series-graph/113207)._
