    QVector<QColor> colors = { QColor(255,0,0), QColor(0,255,0), QColor(0,0,255),
    QColor(0,0,0), QColor(255,255,255), QColor(0,128,64) };
    for(int i=0;i<6;i++)
    line->setPen(colors[i]);
    }
    i unable to set diff color..using this code only same color lines drawn..as i value in not incremented when second time line drawn ?
    what changes req..?any suggestions

      Of course it can't work this way! And it is not what I suggested! Please read my post once more...
      That's why I asked how your class actually draws. You still did not answer this question (I have no idea how CHPlotCurve does the drawing)...

        I'm using these predefined classes..
        @jsulm CHPlotCurve -Class to draw the data as a line curve in the graph canvas area(x-y plane).
        CHPlotCurve--derived from QwtPlotCurve class
        void CHPlotCurve::setSamples(QwtSeriesData<QPointF> *). CHPlotCurveData is derived from QwtSeriesData<QPointF>. This function is part of the one of the base class of CHPlotCurve.
        There are two ways to set color is using setBrush or setpen

          @n-2204 If there is no support for different colors for different segments of a line then you can still draw each segment separately as one line.

              @n-2204 Come on you already set the color! So, what is your question now?

                @jsulm yes.. this color will be same for each line drawn .. but i need to set diff color for 1,2 3 etc lines... thats why i tried using loop

                  @n-2204 If you can set color for one line then you can set color for every line. Something like:

                  // Line 1
                  QPointF pt1(X, Y);
                  WHAT_EVER_LINE_DATA_IS linedata1;
                  linedata1->append(pt1);
                  CHPlotCurve* line1 = (CHPlotCurve*)pGr->insertCurve("line", CHPlotGraph2D::Line, false);
                  line1->setSamples(linedata1);
                  line1->setPen(Qt::blue, 2, Qt::SolidLine);
                  
                  // Line 2
                  QPointF pt2(X2, Y2);
                  WHAT_EVER_LINE_DATA_IS linedata2;
                  linedata2->append(pt2);
                  CHPlotCurve* line2 = (CHPlotCurve*)pGr->insertCurve("line", CHPlotGraph2D::Line, false);
                  line2->setSamples(linedata2);
                  line2->setPen(Qt::red, 2, Qt::SolidLine)
                  

                  Also, please consider that this CHPlotCurve is not part of Qt, you should consider checking its documentation and ask in a different forum (if there is one).

                      So what?
                      Take the points from the table, I don't see how this stops you from doing it the way I suggested...

                        @jsulm I have 8 rows in table so i will do 8 times first store every row data then do this ? is this a way ?
                        Thanks for your answers.
                        every time i take point ..create line data and pass to line
                        CHPlotCurveData* linedata1 = new CHPlotCurveData();
                        CHPlotCurve* line = (CHPlotCurve*)pGr->insertCurve("line", CHPlotGraph2D::Line, false);

                          @n-2204 Simply iterate over the rows of your table in a loop. For each row take the point coordinates, create the line, set color...
