i want to know if it is possible to change colours of a button with event driven rule?

i use javascript to set button colours, and they are set depending on the ‘Tooltip’ field.

i create a rule, and the action set’s the button control tooltip property.

this works, as i show a message to see that it has passed value correctly.

the button colour however doesn’t change

i have also tried conditional formatting on the button colour to change depending on the tooltip value, but that doesn’t work either

anyone have a solution?

Would a “Conditional Format” on the button work? You can tie the condition to some hidden value on the form that you set via event driven rule


i have a conditional format  - but for the tooltip of the button
so maybe, add  datalabel on view
once i up date control tooltip, then transfer data to datalabel, and have conditional formatting on that datalabel?

will try that


yeah that has done the trick
