DataForm: PositiveFeedback Issue

[Geoff]

Hi there

1. We have a fully working DataForm but have an issue with PositiveFeedback.

Basically we have a couple of enumerators that work fine but every time we load the form the PositiveFeedback is triggered and they show the green background. How do we turn this off? I cant find any resources on how to achieve this.

Same thing happens with some date controls. As we are defaulting dates on form load the positive feedback is triggered and they show the green background.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance

Geoff

Hello Geoff,

This can be set using the Editor Style property. You'd create an instance of the DataFormEditorStyle object, set the customization (there are a lot of options) desired and then set that instance to the DataForm.EditorStyle property.

I recommend visiting the Editor Style and Group Styling articles to see more thorough examples, including using images instead of colors (e.g. checkmark).


Direct Example

Since you're looking to avoid the green colored background, you can set the PositiveFeedbackBackground to Transparent: 

dataForm.EditorStyle = new DataFormEditorStyle
{
    PositiveFeedbackBackground = Color.Transparent,
    PositiveFeedbackForeground = Color.Black
};

Here's the result at runtime using the last demo I wrote for you:

Side Note:  I'm not sure if you intended to open this thread in the forums, but I wanted to mention this just in case.

Although we try our best to monitor and respond to forum posts in a timely manner, this can be limited by available resources (mainly available engineers) mand may take a day or two.

Thanks Lance - as usual really helpful :)

Given the simple nature of the issue I posted to the forums as I thought this was better answered here than as a support request.

Appreciate your help

All the best
