Inquiring Minds is a monthly community series to help share questions from both internal IBM staff and our customers to better understand using the IBM Apptio suite of products. We’ve collected these questions during our live Instructor lead classes, and general questions that have been shared with the Education team. We hope this helps and look forward to answering more questions in the future!
This month, we're featuring a question from our Apptio Certified Practitioner: Targetprocess class, we frequently receive questions about how to change the color of a card. This post provides the answer to that question, along with additional information on how to add a new rule and select a color for the card.
How to change the color of cards from any view in Targetprocess:
The color of the card depends on the Visual Encoding filter applied to the view. If you’d like to check the Visual Encoding, follow these steps:
- You can click on the Action menu in the top right corner of the view.
- Navigate down to the "Set up view”.
- Click on the "Visual Encoding" tab. Here, you can check the current view rules.
If you want to change the color of a card:
- Click on the small square box to select the color, or you can enter a color in hex code.
If you want to add a new rule:
- Click on the "+ Add rule" icon, select your rule from the dropdown menu.
- Click on the small square box to select the color, or you can enter a color in hex code
- Then click on the "Apply filter" tab.
