Changing the color of a field


Is there a way of changing the color of a field programmatically using
Lotus Script?

This field is type "Color" field and editable.

I was hoping to use LotusScript so that it will allow me to change the
color depending on another value when
the document is saved.

Sub Click(Source As Button)

      Dim session As New NotesSession
      Dim ws As New NotesUIWorkspace
      Dim doc As NotesDocument
      Dim color As NotesColorObject
      Set doc = ws.CurrentDocument.Document
      Set color = session.CreateColorObject
      notesColor = color.SetRGB(255,0,0)
      Call doc.ReplaceItemValue("Cell1", notesColor)
End Sub

This is what I have so far.  How can I get the field color to "Red" which
would be (255, 0, 0)?

Another thought I had was to have another field with the color of "Red" and
than replace the "Cell1" field value
to the value of the new color "Red" field created.  Question is, how can I
create the newly created field
to the value of "Red".

Re: Changing the color of a field

Jean -

I've not used these new fields, but I took a look at them. It looks the 
field value is stored as a text, and it's not the RGB colour. The value 
for 255,0,0 is "00E10000". Try running your script below with that.

Re: Changing the color of a field


I tried changing the value, but there was an error in the script.

Where did you find the info at concerning this?  I have been looking
at a number of different places and haven't had any success yet.

Thanks,
Jean

Re: Changing the color of a field

I put a colour field on a form in my dev database, put a colour in, saved 
it then right-clicked to see the properties of the document from the view. 
That gave them the value. As I change the colour, the value changes. I 
recognize the strings as colour-codes, but I don't know the format they 
are attached to. You can also create a computed field that is 
 <at> Text(NewColour) (if NewColour is  your colour field) - it will show you 
the value you select. As I look, the NotesColor property is part of the 
NotesRichTextStyle, and since you weren't manulipiting that, I'm guessing 
that's where your error came in. 

I took your code and having it change the text value of NewColour seems to 
work:

        Sub Click(Source As Button)
        Dim session As New NotesSession
        Dim ws As New NotesUIWorkspace
        Dim doc As NotesDocument
        Dim color As NotesColorObject
        Set doc = ws.CurrentDocument.Document
        Call doc.ReplaceItemValue("NewColour", "00E10000")
        End Sub

Re: Changing the color of a field

I don't know if the field name messed things up or what, but I changed the
name of the field, and
tried again, and it worked.

I have the field type as "Color" and it changed to the appropriate color,
but the field shows as if it were a
dialog list in the computed field.  Is there a way of having the field only
show the color without the extra detail
of that field?

I am sorry to be bugging everyone with this, but I haven't worked much with
color except in the
rich text table area, and since this is going to the company president, I
need to get everything
in the best manner possible.

Thanks again everyone for your help with this.

Jean

Re: Changing the color of a field


Late yesterday afternoon I had submitted that I had finally gotten things
to work.

I have the field type as "Color" and it changes to the appropriate color.
With the field as this type, it appears as if it were a selection field
with
the arrow appearing in the field.  Is there a way of having the field
only show the color without appearing with the selection?

Again, thanks all for your comments.
