Is there a way to have have the color be dynamic? so I have a display function and set sliceID.color = model.var1;
sliceID.color = model.var2;

For that you should create your series in ActionScripts and set the color for each of thoses Series.
So after you could bind a ColorPicker to a Serie, and change its property.

Is there a way to change (via a colorpicker) the colors of each individual pie slice?

marco, You would probably need to set the fills style using ActionScript instead of within CSS. I don't think CSS or blocks would parse ActionScript code like xmlData[0]["chartcolor"]. Peter

Thanks for the list of the default colours. Despite your doubts, it is precisely what I wanted to know.
