Re: Set Line color in dG?
Assuming the lesson you have taken in example is the following: http://lessons.livecode.com/m/datagrid/l/7332-how-can-i-colorize-individual-lines-in-a-table Code for coloring rows is located in the button "My column default behavior". The code you shared is located in the "toggle line 3 color" but it is not enough for coloring a datagrid row. Having a row in color is not a standard datagrid feature. So that is the reason you have to change the "default column" behavior script of your datagrid. Do you have copied the "My column default behavior" button in your project and if yes, do you have linked your datagrid to this button by using the code? set the dgProp["default column behavior"] of grp "myDatagrid" to the long id of btn " My column default behavior " or what ever you named your column behavior script button. where "myDatagrid" is the name of your datagrid. Hope I'm more clear in my explanation.

Re: Set Line color in dG?
Zryp, Crap, accidentally sent the response without finishing. I was checking that the code in my test button was actually talking to the datagrid in question, and it returned the correct values, so I assumed it was. I don’t understand how “myBtn” would participate. I need to change colors from some other script.

Re: Set Line color in dG?
Zryp, What I wanted to do is make a distinction between data that was retrieved from a database and data that was entered but not yet stored. A datagrid is. Way overkill for what I’m doing, but the button that accesses the datagrid data to get the specific line is for testing only.

Re: Set Line color in dG?
Bill, The example you mention is probably using a custom column behavior script for accomplishing this. Do you have copied the button in your project? The button must be linked to your datagrid by using the following code: set the dgProp["default column behavior"] of grp "myDatagrid" to the long id of btn "myBtn" Best Regards, On Tue, Jun 16, 2020 at 8:55 PM William Prothero via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Folks: > I’m having trouble getting the line color of a dataGrid to change.
