Hey Ive got a question,

is it possible to change the Column color of a crosstab dynamicaly by render? I give an example: I cri8 a crosstable with very much attribute rows on the left side. Now i want to change the colors for the different rows in the left column like blue, gray, blue, gray ... and so on.

Thank for Help.

So, in the dimension/header column, you want to alternate row colors? If so, you just need to add a highlight rule to the cell. If you want to alternate the row color all the way across all columns, it's a little more work because of how a crosstab is created.

Let me know.

Thanks for reply! Its just the dimension column like you thought so i will try to use these highlight funktion, i hope i can get it like you told. i will report afterwards :-).

ok, I managed it to set a Highlight on a spezial condition like "If .value of the column is equal to x then highlight backround red" but how can alternate the color of the column in that way? i dont want an alternative color by one spezial condition, i want to swticht between two colors all the time

Sorry for the delay. What's your BIRT version? I'll make a simple example.
