Hi All,

i have a field calculation were if a certain instance occurs it enters a message in to a field and if another instance occurs it enters another message.

now id like to if possible make one message text go red and the other green.

How can i do this?

Thanks in advance.

What version of FMP?

Same question, more or less. FMP6/MacOSX

I want a button label to change color based upon a calculation. (A "Find" button's label should change to "Show All" in red when working with a found set).

A text box with two merge fields (one black, one red) seems like one way to go; just wondering if there's an easier way.

Thanks for your consideration,

Chap

In FM7 you could do it with a fairly simple calc.

In FM6 I think you will have to use two fields for the text and stack them on the layout one set for black and the other for red. I would tend to use globals and set them (toggle for "" or "WhateverText") by script when using the button's attached script.

Someone else may have a more elegant solution.
