String indicator color

[inuyasha84]

Hi guys I want to know if it is possible to change the color of the string indicator twice depending on the input. For example on the same string indicator I want the red color when the result of the test is False and the green one when the test is passed. Is it possible?

You can change it as many times as you want using a property node. You can change the font color, background color, or both.

hi alten could you please provide me an example?Thank you

I see how to change the colour of the written but I don't know the number that correspond to each color.

Use a colorbox constant instead of a numeric!

mmm I tried in this way:

128 should be green.... but doesn't work

[altenbach · Accepted solution]

Try this...

[inuyasha84]

oh nice but one more question how have you created that colored square?

Thank you

EDIT: you used the color box. I have never seen it before. Thank you for your help 🙂

Why? Green is 065280. It is easier of you set the display format to hexadecimal. Green is 00FF00.

Still, using a colorbox constant is much easier to use. It can be found in the "graphics&sound...picture functions" palette.
