Tip of the Day: Customized Task Labels for the DB Task Tracker
Product.......: R:BASE X.5 and R:BASE X.5 Enterprise (Version 10.5)
Build.........: 10.5.2.20716 or higher
Sections......: Forms
Keywords......: Task Tracker, Task, Label, Color, Description
Did you know that PROPERTY command parameters were added to customized
the labels for the DB Task Tracker tasks?
Support has been added to add a custom Label, and to modify the predefined
Label color and description, for tasks in the DB Task Tracker.
The label for a task is used to color the task, so that it meets specific
criteria, in order for the task to be easily identified.
Adding a Label - The ADD_COLOR PROPERTY command parameter was implemented
to add a custom "Label" with a color and description to the DB Task Tracker.
PROPERTY TASK_TRACKER ADD_COLOR 'Virtual Meeting|PURPLE'
The color portion can be a named color, an integer value, or an RGB value.
Note: The ADD_COLOR command should be executed at the start of the R:BASE
application as the custom colors/descriptions are not persistent between
sessions. The saved values in your database table are of course persisted.
Altering a Label - Two new PROPERTY command parameters were implemented to
change the predefined color/descriptions of an existing label; COLOR_DESC[n]
and COLOR_VALUE[n].
COLOR_DESC[n] - Changes the predefined description of a label, where n is a
zero-based index as displayed in the drop down.
PROPERTY TaskTracker1 COLOR_DESC[n] 'Virtual Meeting'
COLOR_VALUE[n] - Changes the predefined color of a label, where n is a zero-
based index as displayed in the drop down. The color can be a named color,
an integer value, or an RGB value.
PROPERTY TaskTracker1 COLOR_VALUE[n] 'PURPLE'
