Section Header Text Background Color

Hi have a catalog that has a running section header that will be placed over a black graphic the width of the page header.  I would like to have a white background box appear the length of the header section text, but not be the full length of the text box defined on the master pages for the header.  I would like to do this in an automated fashion rather than manual placing the graphic around the header text on each page.  It won't work to place a white box under the text as it is part of the background already being a master page item, or am I missing something.  In brief can I have a background color that dynamically adjusts to the length of a text string?
Thanks,
Dave

If that text has a character style (or if it doesn't give it one) make the character style include an underline, then make that underline really thick and give it a baseline shift.  The same technique is commonly used for highlighting.  There's a few other options you can play around with in the underline options too.

  • Numeric text background color on a numeric element of a cluster.

    How does one change the numeric text background color (NumText.BGColor property) on a numeric element of a cluster?
    I see the property when a numeric is standalone, but don't see it when it is inside a cluster.
    Solved!

    No, all array elements share the same properties. Only values can be different.
    One solution would be to add a flat colorbox as additional cluster element and place in in the background. Now change the color as desired.

  • Adobe Forms: Printing Header Text - Background as Dark

    Hi,
    We are upgrading our ECC system to Enahncement Pack 5.
    We have Adobe forms for Sales Order, Delivery Notes,... In Border Palatte, we have set 'Solid' as a background fill for our header texts
    After applying patches, Adobe forms started printing header texts background very Dark.We are not able to read the texts. If I view the document in the spool then they are displayed correctly. If I save spool document on the desktop and print it then also output is printed as we want. Only when we print it directly through VA01, VA02 ( directly from SAP ) then it gives this error.
    I removed the background fill then it prints text correctly but then I loose the separation between header and content.
    I will appreciate any help in this regard

    Hi mrudul,
    as usual in programming, you got different ways to solve the problem. So if you work through the content here on SCN you will find a lot of examples how to decide between different letter heads. The easiest solution (and might be the best) is to pass the necessary data via the interface and do not add any condition in the form itself.
    How to create a dynamic field and all the stuff is very basic knowledge, so I think you do not need any explaination how to do that. If so I refer you to the official documentation provided by SAP.

  • Change Column Header / Column Background color based on a value in a specific row in the same column

    SSRS 2012
    Dataset (40 columns) including the first 3 rows for Report layout configuration (eg: the <second> row specifies the column background color).
    Starting from the 4th row, the dataset contains data to be displayed.
    I would like to change the background color of the ColumnHeader/Column based on the value in the same column in the <second> row.
    How can I accomplish the this requirement? (this must be applied for all the columns)
    Thanks

    Hi Fasttrck2,
    Per my understanding that you want to specify the background color of all the columns/column header based on the value in one special column of the special row, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and you can add expression to condition show the background color in the columns properties or the column header properties.
    Details information below for your reference:
    Specify the background color in the Column header: you can select the entire column header row and in the properties add expression in the Background color :
    If you want to specify the background color for the entire column, you can select the entire column and add the expression, repeat to add background color for other columns.
    If you want to specify the background color based on the value in the specific columns and row, you can create an hidden parameter to get the list of values from the  specific column, specify the Available values and default values by select "Get
    values from a query", finally using the expression as below to get the specific value you want:
    Expression(Backgroud Color):
    =IIF(Parameters!Para.Value(1)="1221","red","yellow")
    If your problem still exists, please try to provide some smaple data of the report and also the snapshot of the report structure to help us more effective to provide an solution.
    Any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • Report text background color

    I have added report text to my post-expression to display voltage test results.  I want to be able to change the background color of the report text frame so that only failures stand out in the report.  It currently defaults to magenta.  Here is an example of the expression I currently am using.
    Step.Result.ReportText = Locals.VoltageNames[ Locals.PortCount] + " Voltage High!\nExpected Range:  " + Str(Locals.ExpVoltages[Locals.PortCount][0]) + " - "  + Str(Locals.ExpVoltages[Locals.PortCount][1]) + "\nMeasured:  " + Str(Locals.Voltages[ Locals.PortCount])

  • Icon Text Background Color

    I would like to be able to change the background color of the icon text labels on the desktop in OS 9.2.2. The default color (white) looks strange on some wallpapers. Is there a fairly easy way to do this?
    Thanks very much,

    HI, David -
    The highlight color (tint) can be reset easily via the Appearance control panel, but the non-highlighted (normal) tint for the filename's background color is a different thing.
    I suppose ResEdit could be used for that, but I don't know which resource it is.
    You might tinker a bit using Kaleidoscope - it offers lots of interesting ways to customize Finder's display of things, and may include the ability to alter that.

    However, the filename background color is a global setting. Since the vast majority of filenames are presented (displayed) from within an enclosing folder, changing the filename background color to something other than the default will cause it to stand out against the folder's white background, instead of vanishing.

  • Cfinput=text background color style

    I have a CFFORM format=flash and on one of my text boxes I
    want the background color of the text box to be either red or green
    depending on the value of the text box. If the Balance text box
    value is greater than 0, then the background color of the text
    input should be red, if it is EQ 0, then the background color
    should be green.
    Here is a snippet of what I'm trying to do:
    <cfsavecontent variable=GreenBkgd>
    if(Number(Balance.text) =
    '0'){Balance.setStyle('backgroundColor', '##00FF00')}
    </cfsavecontent>
    <cfinput type="text" name="BeginBalance" value="499.99"
    onChange="#GreenBkgd#">
    <cfinput type="text" name="amount1" value="0.00"
    onChange="#GreenBkgd#">
    <cfinput type='text" name="amount2" value="0.00"
    onChange="#GreenBkgd#">
    <CFSAVECONTENT variable="CalcBalance">
    Number(BeginBalance.text) -
    Number(amount1.text) -
    Number(amount2.text)
    </CFSAVECONTENT>
    <CFINPUT type="text" name="Balance" label="Unreconciled
    Balance" bind="#CalcBalance#" readonly="yes"
    style="'backgroundColor', '##FF0000'">
    I'm sure there is just something small I've missed, any
    guidance would be appreciated!

    You could simplify it further to something like:
    <cfsavecontent variable="GreenBkgd">
    if(Balance.text == 0)Balance.setStyle('backgroundColor',
    '0x00FF00');
    </cfsavecontent>
    <cfsavecontent variable="CalcBalance">
    {BeginBalance.text - amount1.text - amount2.text}
    </cfsavecontent>
    <cfform format="Flash">
    <cfinput type="text" name="BeginBalance" value="499.99"
    onChange="#GreenBkgd#">
    <cfinput type="text" name="amount1" value="0.00"
    onChange="#GreenBkgd#">
    <cfinput type="text" name="amount2" value="0.00"

  • Numeric Control - Text and Background Color changes when operating inc/dec arrows

    Hi,
    I'm developing an application that has a panel with black background and green or red numbers. I've added numeric controls and configured the text color and text background color attributes accordinglingy. I set the numeric control to hot or validate  control mode and show the inc/dec arrows, since I want to be able to incr/decr the numbers.
    The problem is that when I run the application and I hit the inc/dec arrows, then the colors inside the numeric control frame become inverted: the black background becomes white and the green number becomes cyan. I've created a callback function assosicated with the numeric control and tried forcing the text and background color, in the EVENT_VAL_CHANGED section, using the SetCtrlAttrribute() function, but to no avail. Also added ProcessDrawEvents didn't help.
    When I mouse click again outside the numeric control, then it reverts back to its original colors (green text, black background).
    Any suggestions as to how I can fix this ?
    I want it to keep its original colors at all times, even when I'm clicking the incr/decr arrows...
    Kind regards,
    pgriep
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ok, now I see what's happening.
    The effect you are seeing is a resul of standard numeric control behaviour combined with the black bcakground: when you use arrows to increment/decrement a numeric control its value will be automatically highlighted; on the default background you'll see the white area and figures highlighted in black (white numbers on balck background). If you set the background to black the system will automatically change the colors used to highlight the text, and that's what you're seeing.
    By the way, this does not happens if you use up and down keys on the keyboard: text is not highlighted so colors are not changing.
    Additionally, this is not only valid for numerics: see the behaviour of the string controls on the bottom of your panel when you tab up to them. This effect does not happen on controls set as indicator like the big clock in the upper part of the panel.
    The only way I can see to overcome this behaviour is to hide control built-in arrows and create your own up and down buttons with which you can manipulate the numeric control. I am attaching a modified version of your project with buttons on the left numeric; sorry for the poor aesthetic:  I have used some arrow icons I had on my disk, you may want to create your own arrows with the colors and shape you prefer.
