How do I change the background of a single cell or a row in a table?

How do I change the background of a single cell or a row in a
table? I doesn't seem to be letting me do that.

Are you using the latest DW? If so, then it isn't letting you
because
bgcolor is deprecated and shouldn't be used.
The correct way is to use css to define the background of a
cell
CSS:
.blackcell {background-color: black;}
HTML:
<td class="blackcell">whatever in the cell</td>

Trying to change the color of a single cell

hi, I am trying to change the color of a single cell when mouse moves over it, but couldn't do it. i even tried my own renderer, but it doesn't work. can anybody help ?

Here is what I am trying to do. I am displaying some data in a java JTable retrieved from a table in database. What is needed is when user moves his mouse over any cell in the third column, the cursor should change to hand cursor and possibly the background color should also change, to indicate the user that this cell is clickable. I have to show some other report when user clicks any cell in column three. The code follows as

import java.sql.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.sql.rowset.*;

Changing the size of a single field in runtime in table view

Please suggest.

Hello,
you can try to put the code similar to the one below in table iterator.
METHOD if_htmlb_tableview_iterator~render_cell_start.
DATA: lr_input TYPE REF TO cl_thtmlb_inputfield,
        lr_text TYPE REF TO cl_thtmlb_textview.
IF p_column_key EQ 'ZLIKEATTRS'.
    lr_input ?= p_replacement_bee.
    lr_input->encode = abap_false.
    IF ( lr_input->disabled EQ 'TRUE' ) OR ( lr_input->disabled EQ abap_true )
      OR ( p_edit_mode IS INITIAL ).
* --> input is readonly, instead of disabled input render text
      CREATE OBJECT lr_text.
      lr_text->id        = p_cell_id.
      lr_text->text      = lr_input->value.
      lr_text->_text     = lr_input->_value.
      lr_text->type      = lr_input->type.
      lr_text->_type     = lr_input->_value.
      lr_text->tooltip   = lr_input->tooltip.
      lr_text->align     = lr_input->alignment.
      lr_text->textdirection = lr_input->textdirection.
      lr_text->design    = 'VALUE'.                         "#EC NOTEXT
      lr_text->size      = lr_input->size.
      lr_text->width     = lr_input->width.
      IF lr_text->tooltip IS INITIAL.
        IF lr_input->_value IS NOT INITIAL.
          lr_text->_tooltip = lr_input->_value.
        ELSE.
          lr_text->tooltip = lr_input->value.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
      lr_text->encode = abap_false.
      p_replacement_bee ?= lr_text.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
ENDMETHOD.
In get method of your description column split the text into lines using <br> tag.
Something like this:
LOOP AT lt_attrs INTO lv_attr.
        CONCATENATE lv_value '<br>' lv_attr INTO lv_value.
    ENDLOOP.

How can I change the color of a single object?

I have a bright orange barrel in a video of mine and I want to change it to a cooler color without changing the rest of the scene? How can I do this?

Change the color of a particular row in a jtable

I have a jtable and i want to change the color of one particular column and few rows to blue and underline the text depending on some condition. In my view class if a condition is true
for( count=0;count<grdTest.getRowcount;count++)
if(some condition true)
grdTest.getColumnModel().getColumn(0).
setCellRenderer(new MyTestCellRenderer(count));
And my cell renderer
public class MyTestCellRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {
int rowIndex=-1;
public MyTestCellRenderer(int rowcount) {
super();
rowIndex=rowcount;
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value,
boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {
super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value,
isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);
if(row == rowIndex)
setText("<html> <u> <font color='blue'>" + value.toString());
return this;
This is behaving very wierd . If suppose there are 50 rows and all of them have the condition true then only the last one in the row color is changes.
However if only one out othe say10 has the condition true then it changes the color and underlines the particular row,column.
Is there any other way to do this or what i am doing wrong
Thanks

if(row == rowIndex)Your code is a shambles because of the lack of tags, but I don't believe I see anything being called when this boolean condition is not true. That would be a problem.

Tabular Forms - how to change the color of text when the field is disabled

Hi,
I have a tabular form and some of it's columns are disabled showing text in grey color...
is there a way to change the color to black and bold the text...?
thanks

Okay, i've taken a look at your example.
The column formatting does not work on the input fields. The help on the item says that it generates a span with a style attribute. This would work for a display field, not for an input field.
Css like i've written should be in the style tags, put up in the header section of the page (page -> edit -> header region).
You've already put script tags there, the style tags go there aswell. You shouldn't even need to put your script tags in the header region. Just put your code up in the javascript functions region (without the script tags).
However, i tested in firefox and here color works on an input field, changing the font color. In IE it does not do this. Cross browser implementations and such, not much to do about it here. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/602070/changing-font-colour-in-textboxes-in-ie-which-are-disabled.
I did notice that you build your form with a bunch of input fields, which you disable through javascript in the footer of the region. Then on submit, you set the disabled to false again for all those fields! If you want those fields to always be submitted to the server, why wouldn't you use the readonly attribute? Readonly fields are always submitted, and can't be edited by the user. Plus, readonly fields CAN be styled however you want! You can get rid of the javascript code in your header then.
Even the javascript in the footer is not necessary. If you just add 'readonly="true"' (without single quotes) to the element attributes of your items (edit column -> column attributes region) = no javascript at all (less maintenance).

How can i change the color of a field in a table depence of a value

Hi forum
Is this possible to change the color of a row in a specific field of a table depends of the value of this field,,, for example if the value is equal or greather than 1.
Thnks
Josué Cruz

Josue,
Yes this is possible if you use the fillColor method. It requires R,G,B value of color.
//Sample code which highlights cell2 in my table which has two rows.
frm1.Table1.Row2.Cell2.fillColor = "120,120,120";
// If you want highlight complete row.
frm1.Table1.Row2.fillColor = "120,120,120";
So now just apply an if loop which reads the input value as greater than 1 and use the code shown above.

When creating a fillable form and saving it as a pdf, the default color of the data fields is a light blue. How do I change the color to something else that will copy better, e.g. a light yellow?

When creating a fillable form and saving it as a pdf, the default color of the data fields is a light blue. How do I change the color to something else that will copy better, e.g. a light yellow?

It's probably the fields highlight color of the application, which you can change via Edit - Preferences - Forms.

How to change the color of the text field of form

Hi ,
Is there any way to change the color of the text field of the form........
Thnx in advance .......
Cheers,
Eman

Hi Bob. I'm new to these forums and I'm not sure of protocol and exactly how this is supposed to work, so If I'm doing this wrong then please excuse me and let me know.
I liked you solution on 'How to change the color of an Item on a form' using <blink>.
I'm new to this application and coding as well so its kind of foreign to me.
Working on a Report Page,
I would like to have item, :P1_JOB_NO blink when the difference between sysdate and :P1_DATE_DUE < 7 days.
I can identify the job_no which should blink by using the sql statement:
SQL> select job_no from oax_projects07 where
2 (sysdate - date_due < 7) and
3 emp_name = 'GARY PILKENTON';
JOB_NO
20060627 050
But I dont know the proper syntax to make it blink,
or when to plug the syntax into.
ie, is it a process, a validation, etc.
Do you have any advice for me?

Is it possible to change the color of the text in one specific field?

If I want to make someone's mobile number show up as the primary contact, is it possible to make the text for that number a different color or make it bold? I can't seem to find a way to do it.
Thanks.

Make a Shape > Inspector > Graphic > Tinted Image Fill > Scale to fit > browse to image > click on the color patch to change the color to what you want
or
Drag in an image > overlay it with a Shape > select the color for the shape and change its Opacity
Shapes may have Gradient and Advanced Gradient (multiple colors) fills both linear and radial. Both are in the Graphic Inspector as is Opacity.

How to change the color (or fill) of a SINGLE bar in a bar chart series

I've searched the forum and consulted the help system in Keynote '09, and I can't find the answer.
I have a simple bar chart with 6 bars. I want to select two of the bars and turn them a different color. I only seem to be able to change the color of the series as a whole. I can only select the series as a whole, and I can't Ungroup it or even copy it to the clipboard (it beeps!). I've tried changing the color of the number represented by the bar in the underlying table; can't be done.
Am I attempting something impossible? If so (grumble grumble), why hasn't Apple made it possible? It seems like an obvious thing to allow.

It is unfortunately impossible -- the individual bars are not selectable. As a workaround you can a) overlay them with a rectangular object, or b) overlay them with a second chart identical to the first, with all the bars except the two set to zero.

Changing the color of text while mouse listener.

Hi all. working on an assignment for school and I need a little hint.
I am creating an applet to basically input names in txt blocks, and then you hit a button that will move the names to a text area. Well the instructor asked us to use a mouse listener to change the color of the labels on the txt blocks. Basically when you hover your mouse over the button it is supposed to change the color of the button (for and back ground), and change the color of the labels on the txt blocks.
I just did a general setForground(color.blue);
for my labels default color and it seemed to do the trick, I used the following code to try to change the color of both the buttons and the txt block labels, but only the button works.
Please assist..
public class Assignment2 extends java.applet.Applet implements ActionListener, MouseListener {
public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e){
//Colors Back
setForeground(Color.blue);
btnAdd.setForeground(Color.red);
btnAdd.setBackground(Color.yellow);
//Clear Status bar
showStatus("");
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
//empty Method
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e){
//empty method
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e){
//empty method

HI,
Sorry for delay. I was not on my seat.
I've modified your code and the label colors are changing now on the mouse over or out events.
I did this only for a single label i.e. "First Name". Just have a look on the code and do the same for the rest labels.
If u feel any problem, then revert to me.

Changing the background of a text field in adobe interactive forms

Hello All,
Is there any way to change the background colour of text field in interactive form dynamically.??
Thanks,

Naresh,
Change the language to JavaScipt in Script Editor of LiveCycle Designer and use the following code to highlight the area of TextField where R,G,B means that you have to give the RGB values of the color you want.
<YourTextFieldName>.border.edge.color.value = "R,G,B";
For eg:- If you have a textfield with name TextField1 then this will highlight the TextField1 area in red color.
if ((TextField1.rawValue==null) || (TextField1.rawValue==""))
TextField1.border.edge.color.value = "255,0,0";
You can use this on exit event of Textfield1 or at the submit button where you check the form data.
