if i use like this,

 

($F{currentStatus}.equals("Submitted"}) ? "<style forecolor='red'>"+ $F{currentStatus}+"</style>: " : $F{currentStatus} )

 

i got the output:  <style forecolor='red'> instead of changing text color.

rasikow,

You could set up different Styles

or

you could use two different fields with different font colors. Then put the a filter in the "Print When Expression" :

new Boolean($F{currentStatus}.equalsIgnoreCase("Submitted") == true)

Did you remember to set Markup to styled?

Hi Guys, I am also looking for this solution. I don't see anything when I click the drop down "Style". I am using version 1.2.x of iReport.

I am also trying two text boxes with two different colors logic but not sure why my expression is not evaluating correctly.  I have two dates, I want to show textbox1 with blue color only when the start_date<>EndDate. If both dates are equal, then I want to show textbox2 with black color. The problem is my expression is returning only one textbox1 in all cases. I wish I could change the font color dynamically with some other logic.

 

Here is what I have.

//TextBox1 - text color is Blue

$F{Start_Date}==$F{End_Date}?Boolean.FALSE:Boolean.TRUE 

//TextBox2 - text color is Black

$F{Start_Date}!=$F{End_Date}?Boolean.FALSE:Boolean.TRUE

Start_Date and End_Date are defiend as what data type?

[dprogrammer]

Both are defined as date. But I was able to figure out after little searching. The following expressions are working fine:

Box1:(blue color)

//for equal to

$F{START_DATE}.equals($F{END_DATE})?Boolean.FALSE:Boolean.TRUE

 

Box2: (black color)

//for not equal to

!($F{START_DATE}.equals($F{END_DATE}))?Boolean.FALSE:Boolean.TRUE

Dear Gnaniyr Zubair

 

I found out a way to do this:

 

in the TEXT FIELD:

 

($F{sysdate-4}.compareTo(new BigDecimal(0)) <= 0?" ":String.valueOf($F{sysdate-4}).toString())

 

I wanted the color RED case the cash balance < 0.

 

And that worked fine.

 Hi  Mauro,

Could you please explain what you did in your case?

If you share some snap of code here that could be easy to understand too.

Thanks,
