Setting color of an individual cell in grid

[jareds]

HI

Is it possible to set a specific cell of a grid to a certain colour?

I want to capture barcodes on the device and after each single code is captured, compare them with the grid column and set the colour of those records not matched to 'red'.

This can be done two ways:
1) Using a lua script and changing the GridRow.backcolor

2) or it can be done with a Row Display Actions
The caveat with the Row Display Action is that the scanned value will have to be set in each row so that it can be compared to another column in the row. If they are not equal, the action can be setup to change a cell, or the entire row's backcolor.

That seems to work if im comparing the table column with a literal value (i.e string) in the compare values section of the trigger.


Is there a way to change this to be a drop down box for a field id?

The drop down is not available, but would be a nice feature that we can look into.
