Prompt Background Color in Forms 6i

Hi all.
I try to explain my problem....
I have problems using the property Background Color in forms 6i.
If i try to use another color (i.e. red) instead of color "unespecified" , and then execute the form, the prompt background color is the same with the item background (boths background colors are red). The normal is that Prompt background color are gray not red.
P.S. In Forms 6 patch 7 there isn't problems.
Any suggestions?

This is Bug 1269402, which is fixed in
patch 1 for Forms 6i. The patch is scheduled
to be released next month.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Where is Background Color Property for Text Field Prompt in Developer 6i

    I update all my works from developer 2000 to developer 6i (forms 6.0). All my screens are now irregular becoz, the text field prompt background color property is not present in forms 6i. Can you help me how to solve this prob.
    (one more solution i found is, can do the prompt as separate canvas object, but is there any way to set the background color for prompt entered in text field.)
    Thank you

    Hi
    I think there is a bug in the first release of Forms 6i,
    where the prompts got the same backgroung color of the
    related item (in fact, it must have no back color,
    because it has no "background color" property).
    Try applying a patch over it.

  • Where is background color stored in CS3 Bridge?

    I would like to change the background color of the Bridge interface to match my desktop and Photoshop (both of which are currently #C0C0C0, or (192,192,192). I can go into Edit/Preferences/General, and play with the User Interface Brightness and Image Backdrop sliders and eyeball it, but I'm looking for something a little more precise.
    Is the color saved in an XML file somewhere? (I looked in Adobe Bridge Panel Preferences.xml, which seemed like the most likely candidate, but did not find anything that looked like it.)
    Any thoughts?

  • Background color of a list item implemented as Tlist

    Hi,
    I have one form with 3 blocks each holding one list item. The list item that has the focus should have a different background color from the other 2 list items. I thought to implement this with visual attributes I assign in the when-new-block-instance trigger. This however only partially works.
    What happens is the following :
    At startup focus is in the first block. This block's when-new-block-instance trigger is fired :
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('BK_LIST.LIST',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE ,'VA_INDICATOR');
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('BK_LIST2.LIST',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE ,'VA_ENABLED_LIST');
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('BK_LIST3.LIST',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE ,'VA_ENABLED_LIST2');
    and the list correctly gets it's yellow background. (defined in va_indicator)
    Va_enabled_list and va_enabled_list2 both have a white background, difference between them is the font size)
    Now when we move focus to the 2nd block we get a different behaviour. This is the trigger defined on the 2nd block :
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('BK_LIST.LIST',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE ,'VA_ENABLED_LIST');
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('BK_LIST2.LIST',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE ,'VA_INDICATOR');
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('BK_LIST3.LIST',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE ,'VA_ENABLED_LIST2');
    So I except the first block to get a white background again and the second block to get it's yellow background. However only the selected row in the tlist changes it's background color. (this in both blocks)
    I do not understand why the first time (at form startup) the background color is set for the whole item and the second time only for the selected record.
    I tried to use the property background_color but the colors are different from what I see in my color palette in that case. If I use the same color codes I also use in my visual_attributes the final result on the screen is different...
    Secondly the result is the same, at form startup the item's background is set, as from the second call only the current salected record in the tlist will change from background color.
    Forms are running C/S and are developed in Forms 6i. One way to get the result I need is by navigating back & forward to my application in Windows using Alt-Tab. At that moment the correct background colors are suddenly applied... Is there a way to force a similar sort of screen refresh ?
    Thanks for any hints, workarounds, tips or solutions !

    Hi,
    I still don't have a clue how I could solve this one.
    It works leaving the block (so making it white again) but it does not work entering the block. (giving the list item another background color). The problem is not about the whithe color. If I do my tests with other colors (red-yellow) the problem remains.

  • Background color of prompts

    Hi!
    I am usuing designer to generate Forms,
    when I execute mu form, the color of the background color of the prompts is white, I want to modify it to being the same color of the backgroung of the canevas....
    where can I change this color, I have see in the preferences of prompts , I found prefences of the position of the prompts but no preferences about their colors!
    Thanks for any help!

    Jina,
    Properties that can not be set using Designer properties or preferences, such as these colours, can usually be set by setting the required property for the object type in the object library. For more details read the Designer help on Object Libraries.

  • Item Background Color changes when placed in production (Forms 10g)

    Hello All,
    I have searched the forum on this topic, but have not been successful in finding a topic/solution for multi-line items that need to render a different color than the rest.
    I have used set_item_instance_property (and set_item_property) as well as using a VA to resolve this issue to no avail.
    When I view the form in the browser - initially in query-mode, I see the color that I have set for the item. Once the query is fetched and I am in non-query mode (display), the items background color is replaced to the standard color (off yellow) for non-editable fields.
    I have taken all of the subclasses off, used the item property from the pallette as well as manually programmed within a trigger and cannot get this item to stay the color that I have set.
    Can anyone help me get this working?

    Are you using the 0 to 100 rgb color assignments you see in the Forms Builder color palette? If so, that is your problem. At run time, you have to convert the color numbers to 0 to 255 numbers. Just multiply each of the three parts by 2.55
    Or maybe there is come code running elsewhere in your form that is setting the color after your code is run.
    Search your form for background_color.

  • Background color on XML form

    Hi,
    I've created a 20x20 image of the background color I want, upload it to KM, and then use that in the Background Image parameter of the XML form. (the Background Repeat Mode is set to Repeat.)
    It doesn't seem to work .any idea why ?
    Regards,
    Hadar

    Hi Hadar,
    You want to set a background image for the Show form
    1.Select the Show form by clicking on the root node in the tree view.
    2.Enter the address of the background image into the property background-image.
    You have the following options:
    • You can enter the URL of an image file.
    • You can enter the parameter %imagepath% followed by the file name.
    The parameter %imagepath% references a cross-project folder for images.
    To define this folder, choose �� Global Options from the XML Forms Builder, and enter the complete path to a folder in a KM repository (for example, /documents/Globalimages) into the field Global Path for Images.
    3.Choose the value repeat for the property background-repeat so that the image is repeated over the entire background.

  • Set BACKGROUND COLOR of checkbox to DEFAULT color of form

    Does anyone know how to set the background color of a checkbox to the default color of the form? I have tried using SET_ITEM_PROPERTY to no avail. On a related issue, seems once any color is changed from "<UNSPECIFIED>" (i.e. default) to any other color, there is no way to return it to the "<UNSPECIFIED>" state.
    Any insight would be appreciated!

    To return to unspecified, click the property, then click the Inherit icon at the top of the property palette. Doing this should make the checkbox area (not the box itself) the same as the canvas color.
