tmas73 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I'm trying to get a calculation that switches two container graphics. User enters a text and the checkmark switches from black to red. I saw a solution like this before but could not find a post of it. Any Help? Thanks Graphic_Calc.fp7.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaRetta Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Change cTextValidate to: If ( IsEmpty ( Text ) ; cContainer ; cContainer [ 2 ] ) When specifying repetitions, the first repetition is the default if left unspecified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmas73 Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 Hi there again! Thanks! I got it working by guessing but I'm sure its a WRONG way how it is done! Thanks! Thomas Graphic_Calc2.fp7.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballycroy Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I don't have any checkmarks handy, but something like the attached file may work for you. Graphic_Calc.fp7.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmas73 Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 One more example, color change in text. Is it possible to have a entered value change colors? In this file the "Item in Stock" should change color and not "cCalc", is this possible this way or is it only possible with 2 different colored fields?

LaRetta Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 (edited) Change calc type to text and it will change when the value changes. You have it as a number and that's why it doesn't work. UPDATE: You can also apply color directly to a standard field by leaving it a standard field and applying your calc under the Auto-Enter tab, via calculation. After you enter your calc, UNCHECK 'Do Not Replace Existing Value' in the Auto-Enter tab. I prefer not to colorize my original text because printing can then look odd. And you can shorten your calculation to: If ( Item in Stock < Item Reorder Level ; TextColor ( Item in Stock ; RGB ( 255 ; 0 ; 0 ) ) ; Item in Stock ) You can use as many colors as you wish - just define them within the calculation ( using a Case statement etc).
