Formatting non-active fields in list view

[Karlos Fandango]

Hi.

I built a database about a year ago but it wasn't required at the time, a year later and it is needed so I'm pretty rusty at present ref FMP but need to is user friendly.

All I want to do is add a slight tint to the background colour of certain fields in list view when the row is not active but try as I might I just can't seem to do so. In the active state yes, but not when the row isn't active. I have made a little video that might help the reader understand my predicament, any help would be appreciated.

You can do this using Conditional Formatting and a Script.

See if this helps.

Sorry, I didn’t notice your version and used a button bar, here is a 13v where you can see the buttons.
