hello,

how can i change the background color of a report element depending on the value of a parameter or a variable?

You might want to use a conditional style instead.

 

The style contains a name and for each condition and the corresponding color settings. The text itself gets the style applied.

 

not sure if this will help for your requirement.

Thanks!

pheraps I was not much precise.

I need to set the back color of a report element run time. The problem is that I don't know which the colors could be neither how many.

 

[davide83]

I'll try to be more precise and simple:

I've got a database table with a  list of exadecimal colors and I want this colors to be tha backcolor of different reportelement.

 

I'd like to make something like:

                             backcolor=""+$F{color}+""

in the JRXML code in the list of report element property.

Help me please!

JR doesn't support such dynamic element properties.  But you can use styled text to do this, see the demo/samples/styledtext sample report to get an idea on how it works.

Thanks lucian.

your answer had been very precise. I already try with styled text and i get a good result but it wasn't what I wanted.

 As it has been said here, the styled text background color applies only to the text and not the texfield

Is there way of coloring the whole textfield without the need of creating a conditional style for each one of the possible colors?

like the styled text does but for the whole textfield
