Replace with Icon

[Former Member]

On my exception reports in 3.x I created a table interface class that would replace the contents of a cell to an icon. So, instead of have a red color cell in a report I would have a column with a nice little icon. Is there a way to achieve this in 2004s?

For example I would have a column called 'Goal Status'. The column would have an exception built against it. Based on the % of goal the column would be red, yellow, or green. I also had a table interface class built that would look at the different colors and replace the content with an Icon that was a little more appealing to the eye.

Can this be replicated in 2004s using the new tools?

Thanks,

Hi

Table Interface class no longer exists, so any post-processing has to be done in JavaScript. I guess you could loop through each cell in the table, and determine its background colour, and insert an image if required.

Alternately, when definining exceptions from the web template settings, in step 4 of the wizard, you have the option of setting the exception display as:

- Background Colour

- Symbol

- Symbol and Value

- Value and Symbol

In this case the symbol is just an arrow ... not sure how you could change that to use your own symbols. Again, you could write some clever JavaScript to find the images and replace with your own image, or just live with the image provided.

Hope this helps.

Cheres,
