CR.7.23 CategoricalTextureFrame
The CategoricalTextureFrame object contains a texture for visual chart objects, rendering a unique texture for each discrete value. To create a CategoricalTextureFrame object, call the CategoricalTextureFrame constructor.
var frame = new GridTextureFrame('State');
You can pass the name of a field (e.g., 'State') to the constructor, or specify this later using the inherited VisualFrame.setField(field) property.
Note: Report script that modifies 'bindingInfo' should be placed in the onLoad handler.
Example (Report)
Bind a point-type chart to the sample 'All Sales' query, with 'Company' (top 5) on the X-axis, and Sum(Total) on the Y-axis. Add the following script in the onLoad handler.
Chart1.bindingInfo.setShapeField("Employee",Chart.STRING);
Chart1.bindingInfo.textureFrame = new CategoricalTextureFrame;
Chart1.bindingInfo.textureFrame.setTexture('Robert',GTexture.PATTERN_1);
Chart1.bindingInfo.textureFrame.setTexture('Eric',GTexture.PATTERN_1);
Chart1.bindingInfo.textureFrame.setTexture('Sue',GTexture.PATTERN_5);
Chart1.bindingInfo.textureFrame.setTexture('Annie',GTexture.PATTERN_5);

Note: Script that modifies 'graph' should be placed at the element level. See Adding Element-Level Script in Report Scripting and Adding Component Script in Dashboard Scripting for more information.
Example (Report or Viewsheet)
dataset = [["State","Quantity","Rep"], ["NJ",200,"John"], ["NY",300,"Sue"], ["PA",75,"Sue"], ["CT", 120,"John"]];
graph = new EGraph();
var elem = new IntervalElement("State", "Quantity")
var frame = new CategoricalTextureFrame();
frame.setField("Rep");
elem.setTextureFrame(frame);
graph.addElement(elem);
