Style Property for Cue

aseigle

I'm not even sure if this is possible, but think it could open the door to some pretty cool possibilities. I was hoping someone could shed some light on this.

Let's say I have a Cue in my Activities Pane that shows the count of "Overdue Sales Invoices." Is there any way to format this so it looks different then another Cue, either be changing the color of the number, or maybe bold it? (Use of different Styles would work). If that isn't possible, If I placed that Cue into its own CueGroup, could I format that so when "Overdue Sales Invoices" < 0, display the caption using Style Propert?

Thanks

Although I haven't tried it, I think it might work. You could write your own .NET Add-in and set the ControlAddIn property of your Cue on the Activities page. This would essentially override the way it is displayed.

thanks for your reply. I was hoping for a "native" approach, but will consider using an Add-in

Sadly, there isn't any native way to color/affect the Cues, as awesome as that might be. You could suggest it though. I'd vote it up.
