Border Box background color not showing when save as HTML

RonB — Sun, 11 Jun 2023 11:24:49 GMT

The attached sample code creates an output window with border box/text box with background colors. When the output is saved as interactive HTML background colors and font type (bold, size) aren't showing. See attached image.

Many thanks

lu = lineup box(n col(2), spacing( 25 ));
vlb = V List Box(
	Text box("LINE1"),
	Text box("LINE2"),
	Text box("LINE3")
);
bb = Border Box(Sides(30), Left( 20 ), Right( 20 ), Top( 20 ), Bottom( 20 ), << Set Background Color("RED"), vlb);
lu << append(bb);
bb = Border Box(Sides(30), Left( 20 ), Right( 20 ), Top( 20 ), Bottom( 20 ), << Set Background Color("GREEN"), vlb);
lu << append(bb);
bb = Border Box(Sides(30), Left( 20 ), Right( 20 ), Top( 20 ), Bottom( 20 ), << Set Background Color("YELLOW"), vlb);
lu << append(bb);
bb = Border Box(Sides(30), Left( 20 ), Right( 20 ), Top( 20 ), Bottom( 20 ), << Set Background Color("GRAY"), vlb);
lu << append(bb);

win = New Window("Example",
	container = v list box();
);
container << append(lu);

@John_Powell_JMP

Do you need to be able to select the text? You could possibly save the V List Box as image

Names Default To Here(1);

lu = Lineup Box(N Col(2), spacing(25));
vlb = V List Box(Text Box("LINE1"), Text Box("LINE2"), Text Box("LINE3"));
bb = Border Box(Sides(30), Left(20), Right(20), Top(20), Bottom(20), <<Set Background Color("RED"), vlb);
lu << append(bb);
bb = Border Box(Sides(30), Left(20), Right(20), Top(20), Bottom(20), <<Set Background Color("GREEN"), vlb);
lu << append(bb);
bb = Border Box(Sides(30), Left(20), Right(20), Top(20), Bottom(20), <<Set Background Color("YELLOW"), vlb);
lu << append(bb);
bb = Border Box(Sides(30), Left(20), Right(20), Top(20), Bottom(20), <<Set Background Color("GRAY"), vlb);
lu << append(bb);
container = V List Box(lu);

win = New Window("Example", CONTAINER << Get Picture);

win << Save Interactive HTML("$temp/DELETEME.html");
Web("$temp/DELETEME.html");

Hi Jarmo and @RonB ,

Thank you for your question.

BorderBox attributes are not yet supported in Interactive HTML.

As for the text, In JMP 17 we are going to support customized font size wherever JMP allows it, and in some cases, customized text color, but not font family or font styles.

If these features are important to you please consider adding requests in the JMP Wish List so others can vote on them and we can use the information to prioritize the implementation relative to other items we are considering for future development.

Thanks,

~John

Thanks.

Is there an alternative in jmp16 to publish color boxes to html?

Strangely, a text box appended to col box can accept background color which is preserved when published as html. See attached example.

Was able to bypass the issue by changing from lineup/border/text boxes to text/col/table boxes combination. Now the colors show when save to html.

Many thanks again.
