Numbers Chart Colors- Individual Customization

How do I change the individual bar color in a Numbers chart? It seems as though I can't which would be quite ridiculous.

Able to change the color of entire bar chart, but not finding a way to color ONE bar inside the chart.

Bar Chart: How to change color of bar in Numbers // Limited color set Coloring the bars in a stacked chart is pretty automatic, done by selecting the "chart styles" - otherwise known as predefined color sets - that Numbers offers. Albeit annoying that I cant select my own colors, this works for when I have 6 categories, as there are 6 basic colors in the provided sets...sorry...styles. BUT, I have a chart with 7 categories, and the blue that is used for the 7th category is very similar to the blue used in the 1st category making the two nearly indistinguishable from each other. Is there a secret to fixing this here?

Select the chart (i.e., click on it)

Select a series on the chart

On the sidebar on the right side of the window choose the 'Style" tab

The settings are there.
