Changing the color of sortable columns in reports

Hi all,
In my Report template (custom made) I have my headers as purple with white text, which is all good except when I make it sortable, it turns all black and hard to see against deep purple background.
Is there a way to retain (or change the column header to white) when I mark a column for "sort"??
Cheers.

In the same way you've changed the colours from the default, you should be able to dictate what colour is used when the field is sorted.
Check what classes are applied on your sorted column and adjust the CSS as necessary.

How can I change the color of chart in webi report

Hi :
I create one Webi report including one table and chart In BO 4.0.
The chart display the relationship between sales-amount and profit amount . I do not want to use the default color but want to specify the red color for sales-amount and yellow color for profit amount . How can I do it ??
Thanks Very Much
Emily MA

Hi,
You can change the color very easily. It's simple & straight forward which I found it couple of days back. (Sometimes simple things are hard to find :-p )
Select the area in the Chart that you want to change color, then go to Format > Style > Background color. Now select the color that you want. In the attached picture, I have selected Yellow color for a piece of pie chart.

Changing the color of the column in a JTable based on the selection (mouse)

Hi,
I want to change the color of all the cells in a column based on the mouse clicked event.
I have managed to select the entire column. And, even, I have found a working example in the internet. But I don't understand why in my case it doesn't work.
This is the code (an inner class for a TableCellRenderer):
class MCTableCellRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer {
          private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
          @Override
          public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
                    Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,
                    int column) {
               setFont(table.getFont());
               if(value instanceof Double){
                    setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.RIGHT);
                    DecimalFormat numberFormat = (DecimalFormat) NumberFormat.getInstance();
                    numberFormat.applyPattern("#######.#");
                    String val = numberFormat.format(value);
                    setText(val);
               if(isSelected){
                    setBackground(Color.RED);
                    System.out.println("is selected");
               else{
                    setBackground(Color.BLACK);
                    System.out.println("is not selected");
               return this;
    }I have set opacity to true for the contentPane, but without any result.
Any advice will be very apreciated.

Problem solved.
My Renderer should have extended the abstract class DefaultTableCellRenderer.

How to change the color of 1px_trans.gif image of interactive report

Hi All,
Iam using interactive report in apex3.2
I need to change the color of 1px_trans.gif or remove the image in search tool bar
where we can change.
pls tell me .......
Thanks & regards
Balu..

I need to change the color of 1px_trans.gif or remove the image in search tool bar 1px_trans.gif is transparent and doesn't have a colour. It is used as a shim image—an outdated way of controlling the dimension(s) of some element(s). It's intended to be invisible. Giving it colour will cause it to become visible, resulting in all sorts of unexpected and unwanted lines (or worse, solid areas of colour) appearing throughout applications.
What do you think you want to do? (Whatever that is, it will almost certainly not be achieved by changing the colour of 1px_trans.gif...)

Data model automatically changes the color and the report corrupts.

we want to run six reports in a single report and users can run the report they select . So,We have 23 simple queries in datamodel and 20 pages of layout,
it was working fine.but now if we make some changes the color in the datatmodel changes,when we try to save this the file corrupts.when we try to open the
file it says some information missing in the report.we have reports builder10g.Is there any size limit for rdf file? because our rdf file size 944kb.
Thank you.

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.

Changing the color of a single field in a row of a table

Is it possible to change the color of text of a single field within a single column. If field 'C' in a row is negative number change the text color to red. Is this possible?

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.

HOw can i change the color of a cell

How can I change the color of a cell when it is selected. I select the cell by pressing enter, then I want the text in the cell to change color to red, but all the cells in the table change color. Please I would be grateful for some help

Subclass DefaultTableCellRenderer.
public class MyCellRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer
Override
public Componet getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column)
JLabel lab = new JLabel(String)value);
lab.setOpaque(true);
return lab;
if(isSelected)
lab.setBackground(Color.red);
else
lab.setBackground(Color.white);
Set the columns in your table:
table.getCoulumModel.getColumn(0).setCellRenderer(new myCellRenderer());
table.getCoulumModel.getColumn(1).setCellRenderer(new myCellRenderer());
etc. for each column in your table.

Changing default color scheme when exporting ALV report to Excel spreadshee

Hi all,
We have a bunch of FI reports created using OOPS in abap. Each of the reports has the functionality to be exported to an excel spreadsheet. When exporting to Excel, the headers are a very dark brown color, making them difficult to read and it has been requested that they are shaded a lighter color. I have not defined any sort of color scheme within the report itself, and I was wondering if there was a way to change the color scheme when exporting the report to excel. Let me know if there is anything that can be done, thanks!
