In the Combo Chart I change the Sales bar background color to be green if the Sales are greater than the Target.<BR />'=If(Sum(Sales) &gt; Sum(Target), Green() )' This works fine. <BR />However, when I change to Straight Table I need the text to change to white. From what I can see a straight table is a object type 11. <BR />The question is, is there a way in the Expression Text Color that I can find the object type? For example, what I am looking at saying in the text color is, if the Object type = ??? White() ....</P> <P>I would really appreciate any possible solution to this.</P> <P>Thank you very much.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Sat, 01 Feb 2025 06:15:04 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Fast-Change-Expression-background-color/m-p/2504046#M1226378 johngouws 2025-02-01T06:15:04Z https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Fast-Change-Expression-background-color/m-p/2504067#M1226379 <P>AFAIK the object-type information isn't natively readable from the UI.
