Hi,

Could someone help me with this question: how to change color(background, foreground) of selected button(cell in the list) = i.e. change highlight color of buttons(cells in the list)?

Thanks,

MFGF

Hi,

If I'm understanding correctly, you are using a list as a control (setting an active report variable) and when you click on a value in the list you want it to appear differently? Is that the case?

If so, one option is to make the variable select the List as well as selecting or filtering the container it currently operates on. This should give the selected list item a faint orange hue.

Cheers!

Yes, you are right.

But I want give the selected list item ANOTHER color than orange hue.
Is it possible?

The only other way I can think of doing this is to have a deck with different cards for each list value. You'd have a different version of the list on each card, with the relevant list cell having your desired foreground/background colour on each card. Your variable would select the deck as well as your target object, and display the card for the selected value. You need to line up and size the lists accurately so that it looks like a single list with the highlight moving from one cell to another.
