Hello,

Using PB 2019R3 Build 2703 - Using Theme Flat Design Blue

Need to set a (different) background color for dropdowndatawindow from datawindow.  Having the same background color for both datawindow and dropdown datawindow is bit confusing.

Flat Design Blue got an option to set the same (I think this is the value), Under dwo-column


**********************************
"dropdown-type":
{
"drawing":true,
"selected-row-text-color":"#000000",
"selected-row-background-color":"#CDE8FF",
"unselected-row-background-color":"#FFFFFF",
"normal-state":
{
"background-color":"#FFFFFF",
"arrow-image":{"file":"dropdownlistbox-arrow-normal.png"}
},
**********************************

The value for background-color is #FFFFFF, but I get the color of datawindow's background color for dropdown datawindow also.  

How to set a different background color for dropdown datawindow in theme.json file ?

Happiness Always

Hi.

Unfortunately the dropdown-type doesn't seem to have a separate setting for background color. Setting inside "dropdown-type" will affect controls inside the dataobject... I don't know if it can be an option, but you can change the background for the rows...

"selected-row-background-color":"#CDE8FF",
"unselected-row-background-color":"#FFFFFF",

Andreas.

Any workaround possible, Andreas Mykonios ? When we work with themes, settings through coding is not possible. There should be a way to override the theme settings ...
