Visio fake green shape

Hi Dojo,

I have drawing like this:

The bottom 3 fields are grey because it's linked to an alarm table. If there is no entry they are just grey. Is it possible to fake it to make it green? The only solution in my mind is with show/hide function. But than I would need to take another parameter. Maybe there is a smarter solution.

My solution are two shapes. One with BackgroundColor and the other one without. Using Show/Hide to view the correct shape

Sebastiaan Dumoulein [SLC] [DevOps Enabler] commented 19th September 2023

I think this indeed the best way to approach it. Overlay two shapes and have the top one using a condition.

Hi Stefan,

Another workaround that I used in the past is to modify the transparency of the shape. In your case, you could modify the transparency of these 3 fields to a higher value (e.g. 90%). Then you can place a green background behind these shapes. As a result, these 3 fields will look green.

Hope it helps!

Hi Miguel,

nice trick. But when there is an alarm color from the table it will not override it or?

Miguel Obregon [SLC] [DevOps Enabler] commented 5 days ago

Hi Stefan,
Indeed, this is a drawback in this case. Due to the transparency, you will not be able to see correctly the severity of the alarm (due to the green background). The only possible workaround I see here is the one that Sebastiaan proposed (multiple shapes with column manipulation).
