I'm trying to use a Tracefield in the header that shows the number of out of tolerance dimensions. How can I make it green for 0 and red for any other color. Either the text itself, or the background color would be great!
Here's a pic of the header I'm working on. I have a block that has the Tracefield(15) which is GETPROGRAMINFO("NUMOOT") . I can't figure out how to make it change colors from green to red when it's greater than 0
I was messing around with Edit window expressions, and I managed to get the colors to change depending on the "NUMOOT". Only thing is, the colors are limited within the edit window. Not sure if this would give you any ideas.
IF/GETPROGRAMINFO("NUMOOT")==0
ASSIGN/V1=GETPROGRAMINFO("NUMOOT")
ASSIGN/V2="~~1 " + V1
END_IF/
ELSE_IF/GETPROGRAMINFO("NUMOOT")>0
ASSIGN/V1=GETPROGRAMINFO("NUMOOT")
ASSIGN/V2="~~4 " + V1
END_ELSEIF/
TRACEFIELD/DISPLAY=NO,REPORT=YES,DISPLAY MESSAGE=How many dimensions are out of Tolerance? ; Dimensions Out Of Tolerance : V2
Without explicitly modifying the actual report forms/labels this is all that you can do within the Edit Window as far as I'm aware. I've been messing with them today, and it's a lot more complex than I had imagined.
I actually just figured out something. Not sure how much you can implement it. If you press Shift + F6 in edit window
Parameters > Trace Field
Change any of the colors fields there (I did Step Mode) which is ~~3 for color code, and I added to my reported trace field
Text turned green.
TRACEFIELD/DISPLAY=NO,REPORT=YES,DISPLAY MESSAGE=How many dimensions are out of Tolerance? ; Dimensions Out Of Tolerance : ~~3 V2
