Enhancement Request: Do not calculate trained skills without ranks

[damned]

So I got the number to change color does any of you code gurus know if there is a way to change the backgound color and leave the number black?

You would need to replace the frame. As the frame is rendered before the text you would have to see if its possible to do some validation before placing the frames...

A couple of entries above that one is one I hadnt seen before...

setBackColor


function setBackColor( color )
Set the color to be used to fill the background of the control before drawing the contents. If no backcolor specified (i.e. nil), then no fill will be done (i.e. transparent).

Parameters

color (string)
The color specified as a HTML compatible string representing an RGB color with an alpha (transparency) value. The format of the string is 'aarrggbb', and each component is presented as a hexadecimal value from 00 to FF. If alpha is zero or not defined, FF is assumed.

My concern with that is "Set the color to be used to fill the background of the control before drawing the contents." I don't know if that would be dynamic, and would only refresh if the party sheet was closed/reopened.

One way to find out...

It works great.
Just put in a handler to watch skill ranks. When on changes it does the check and changes the backgound back an forth.

Thanks alot

local sLabel = w.label.getValue();
        local rSkill = DataCommon.skilldata[sLabel];
        local bTrainedOnly = (rSkill and rSkill.trainedonly);
        local nRanks = w.ranks.getValue();
        if nRanks ~= 0 then
            --w.total.setColor(nil);
            w.total.setBackColor(nil);
        end
        if bTrainedOnly and nRanks == 0 then
            --w.total.setColor("BB0000");
            w.total.setBackColor("BB0000");
        end

Cool. Good to know.

Samarex, what did you do about the frame? Did this override that as well?

Actually nothing was done with the frame. This was coded to change the color of the control. I didnt have to mees with any frames. Tomorrow i can put up the whole function so you can see.

Here is the Function
w.total.setBackColor(nil);
total being the Total field control on the skills tab.

function update()
	local bEditMode = (window.skills_iedit.getValue() == 1);
	window.idelete_header.setVisible(bEditMode);
	for _,w in ipairs(getWindows()) do
		local bAllowDelete = w.isCustom();
		if not bAllowDelete then
			local sLabel = w.label.getValue();
			local rSkill = DataCommon.skilldata[sLabel];
			if rSkill and rSkill.sublabeling then
				bAllowDelete = true;
			end
		end
		
		if bAllowDelete then
			w.idelete_spacer.setVisible(false);
			w.idelete.setVisibility(bEditMode);
		else
			w.idelete_spacer.setVisible(bEditMode);
			w.idelete.setVisibility(false);
		end
		local sLabel = w.label.getValue();
		local rSkill = DataCommon.skilldata[sLabel];		
		local bTrainedOnly = (rSkill and rSkill.trainedonly);
		local nRanks = w.ranks.getValue();
		if nRanks ~= 0 then
			--w.total.setColor(nil);
			w.total.setBackColor(nil);
		end
		if bTrainedOnly and nRanks == 0 then
			--w.total.setColor("BB0000");
			w.total.setBackColor("ffcccc");
		end
	end
end
