Strange Highlight behavior

[Adri Oosterwijk]

Hi all,

I've created in my solution a portal for navigation purposes (see attached images).

For the user it is clear on wich record they are when the portal row is highlighted. And beside that it is visually atractive. This kind of highlligting do we see on websites all the time.

For this highlighting I'm using conditional formatting. The formula is:

If ( Table::id = TablePortal::id ; RGB ( 204 ; 204 ; 153 ) ; Self ) where TablePortal is a TO from table with a cartesian relationship.

A strange behavior occur. When I enter a number in the displayed field on the details area the row stays highlighted in the portal when i click another record.

Any idea why this is happening and how to prvent it. It is possible that an nummeric value is added in the field to display.

Your description does not seem to be conditional formatting as I understand it.

You only need Table::id = TablePortal::id in the conditonal format dialog box and show the colour you need as the highlight from the formatting area below it.

Thanks that does the trick.

Even more simple as where I came up with.
