vToggle font color by selction

Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hi All,

I have a text object of which I would like that the font colour will be changed if being clicked on - but struggling with this.

In the text object properties I have the following added:

@Actions

- added "Set Variable"

- Variable: "vToggle"

- Value: = not vToggle

@Font

- Calculated Base Color: =if($(vToggle), blue(), yellow())

In the Variable Overview Settings:

Variable Name: vToggle

Value: -1

All other settings are untouched. Anyone knows why my text object is not changing color once I click on it.

Unfortunately not able to upload qvw.

I really don't know why are you doing long process

Create variable like var

Then, text object color section use this

If (var=1, reqtextcolor, default)

Try removing the $ sign, like: if( vToggle, blue(), yellow())

What if I want the text object to not switch to blue if the text object is yellow.
What must I add to the formula?

formula is still: if( vToggle, blue(), yellow())

Change in action, like:

@Actions

- added "Set Variable"

- Variable: "vToggle"

- Value: = if( vToggle, -1, 0)
