Custom shade alternate rows in table box

Jackie_ — Tue, 25 Jun 2024 17:23:37 GMT

Hi,

Is there a way to custom-shade alternate rows for the table box, not the data table box?

I want to shade green instead of dark gray

Names Default To Here( 1 );
New Window( "Mountains",
	tb = Table Box(
		String Col Box( "Mountain", {"K2", "Delphi", "Kilimanjaro", "Grand Teton"} ),
		Number Col Box( "Elevation (meters)", {8611, 681, 5895, 4199} )
		
	)
);

I don't think you can do it directly with Table Box. You could do the coloring by datatable (example of this below) or col box

Names Default To Here(1);

dt = New Table("Untitled",
	Add Rows(4),
	Compress File When Saved(1),
	New Column("Mountain", Character, "Nominal", Color Cells({44, {2, 4}}), Set Values({"K2", "Delphi", "Kilimanjaro", "Grand Teton"})),
	New Column("Elevation (meters)", Numeric, "Continuous", Format("Best", 12), Color Cells({44, {2, 4}}), Set Values([8611, 681, 5895, 4199]))
);

nw = New Window("",
	dt << get as report
);

see . I think it used to work better, I had to play with the color just now in JMP 18 to see any green.

<<backgroundcolor( RGB Color( 235, 255, 235 ) )

worked better than

<<backgroundcolor( RGB Color( 245, 255, 245 ) )

I'm not sure why it works, looking back at it. I think the light gray interacts with the background green color.

every other row is very pale green.
