No.  
Here is a bar chart with 30 bars.

The _maximum number of colours_ is 9.

What makes you think it would be 16?

I'm sending a JSON Array with 24 values, but it stops after 16. So I was wondering if it was limited for some reason. I know there are only nine colors, but I only use the same color. Then the error is in my JSAON Array, because it works up to 16. Thanks for the quick reply!
