Is there a way to change the color of the vertical axes line on a power chart? I am able to change the color of the tick but can't seem to get the actual line color to change. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/5/0/505ddf4dd8941c5727efa0dcd3532da28cbc4aca.png) ---

The `props.axes[0].color` property is _supposed_ to drive the appearance of the vertical bar. I've opened an internal ticket to address the issue. ![Screenshot 2023-01-03 at 11.51.49 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/2/0/20f4366ecf8143f31bfd9721b9855dddf794eaaa.png) ---

It is still not working, is it? I'm trying to use this property and nothing happens. ---

No, we are hoping to have this fixed for 8.1.27. ---

I am using 8.1.43 and nothing changes on my axes properties. The time axis works, but the vert does not change color or left/right or the label. ---

Hi, Jim. I've tested it, and it does work. I believe the PowerChart may only register a y-axis when it's associated with a pen. Do you have any pens (`props.pens[#].axis`) that are using the configured y-axis? ---

Make sure your axis name matches the pens. If so, it should just be these three that control it: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/b/5/b56ce002820b7de537829014b92ce460612fc217.png) Check pens inside powerchart: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/5/3/53f58f91458b9b0e098537134a20d490a0550cbb.png) ---
