Department Color Customization

The Department Color Customization feature allows you to assign distinct colors to different departments, teams, or business units in your org chart. This adds visual structure and makes it easier to read and interpret large or complex charts.

Predefined Color Palette: Choose from a set of built-in colors when creating or editing departments.
Color Assigned Per Department: Each department can be given a unique color to help visually separate it from others.
Color Displays in Compact & Full Views: Color indicators remain visible whether the chart is collapsed or expanded.
Works with Forked/Exported Charts: Color schemes are preserved in forked subcharts and PDF/PNG exports.
No Coding or Design Required: Simple dropdown or color picker interface. No design expertise needed.

‍

Improved Navigation: Helps users visually distinguish between departments at a glance.
Enhanced Readability: Color coding makes it easier to follow team structures in large orgs.
Clearer Presentations: Exports and shared links look more organized and professional.
Supports Pattern Recognition: Viewers can quickly understand reporting relationships and groupings.
Consistency Across Versions: Same department colors apply across duplicates and exports for continuity.
