need help with textcolor - Mikewave - 2016-05-10

how can i get this to work as it doesn't seem too.

Code:
<textcolor Condition="Container(9000).HasFocus(998)">white</textcolor>

trying to change the text color when focus on a content

RE: need help with textcolor - ronie - 2016-05-10

the textcolor tag doesn't have a condition attribute.
try using a $VAR[] instead.

textcolor tags does not accept "condition" attribute.

you can use two different controls with:

Code:
<textcolor>white</textcolor>

<visible>Container(9000).HasFocus(998)</visible>

and:

Code:
<textcolor>red</textcolor>

<visible>!Container(9000).HasFocus(998)</visible>

or, you can use variables:

Code:
<textcolor>$VAR[foo]</textcolor>

Code:
<variable name="foo">

<value condition="Container(9000).HasFocus(998)">white</value>

<value>red</value>

</variable>

edit:
and ronie is quicker once again :]

What is the control type? There could be better ways.

RE: need help with textcolor - Rjsachse - 2016-05-11

You could also use includes with conditions. It might not be best solution just letting you know all of your options
E.G

PHP Code:
<include name="whitetext">
<textcolor>white<\textcolor>
</include> 

And: put this in the control

PHP Code:
<include condition="foo">whitetext</include>
