Re: Read-Only fields in Mid-Tier do not indicate with the traditional "silver" field background like in the user tool
Just update your standard Midtier style sheet. They are usually all set to transparent. \Program Files\AR System\Mid-Tier\resources\standard\stylesheets\ARSystem.css We updated ours as follows: /* Read only state. This makes background input areas normally * transparent. However because active links can set a read only * field background colour, we will then get rid of this className * from the elements if there is a change in the backgroundRO color. * */ div.dfro input.text, div.dfro input.decimal, div.dfro input.currency, div.dfro textarea.text, div.dfro button.menu { background:#ee; } div.dfro div.radio, div.dfro label, div.dfro span { background:transparent; } . This will give you a nice light gray color for your read-only fields when displayed via the browser. We didn't update the radio, label, or span controls because we didn't like the effect but you can tinker with them to see what you prefer. //SIGNED// Craig Carter Software Engineer, RSP From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Warren Baltimore Sent: Monday, March 17, 2008 10:48 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Read-Only fields in Mid-Tier do not indicate with the traditional "silver" field background like in the user tool ** You can set the Read Only Field to Disabled.

You can set the Read Only Field to Disabled. This will allow you to show a value within the field, and the User can still reference it. When you need it, just use a Change Field Active Link to set it to Read-Write.

The problem is that by doing so, if I change the state of a field from read-only to read-write via one workflow (this is what I'm doing a lot of time) .. this background color change will not be taken into account...
