I had some KPI widgets made with HTML in R11. I had some font color using the 6 digit color number for some reds and greens. Now under R12, the text is all just black. anyone know about how to change font color in HTML in R12 studio?

Kyle -

I had to go back into my R11 instance and rob some of my HTML headers and past them into Notepad.  I then can make modifications to them for color or font and change the text as needed.  Here is one that I borrowed from one of the out of the box headers that I like to use in other reports.  For changing the color number I just google HTML color codes and go from there.

Red = #FF0000

Green = #01DF01

There are so many different shades to choose from though so I would suggest going out and searching for the exact color you want.

<div class="appsText" style="color:#004C76;font-size:14px;"><strong>Current FY Plan Variance by Cost Pools</strong></div>

Make your changes to this and copy into the edit box for your HTML and see how it looks. 

I know this is only for headers but if you can take part of this to recreate your KPI widgets it might help for the colors.

One more thing to mention....

   I have not found anywhere in the reports how to see the HTML code once you have clicked "OK" in the Edit Content box.  Each time you want to make a change to the HTML the only information that will appear in that Edit Content box is the text, none of the HTML code is there.  So I have started to make it a habit to save all my HTML code in Notepad so that if I need to ever edit it a header I have it there so that I can edit it then copy and paste it into the Edit Content box.

   I'm not sure why this feature was changed in R12 - it was so much easier to work with the HTML code in R11.

I hope this has helped in some way.

Hello @Kyle Sellner, is this what you are looking for: https://tbmcouncil.jiveon.com/docs/DOC-4911?sr=stream ?

He @Kyle Sellner, no problem if you click 'like' in a reply on your question to show that you are happy that people are trying to help you 

looks like the issue I'm having is really that I was utilizing some style catalog items like "kpi-bar-pct-positive." I'm guessing those styles have lost their colors in R12? Here's my text from the HTML string:

<span style="color:black">
<%=NumberFormat(Cost YTD,"$###,###,###")%>

<%=If(YTD True Up < 0, "<span class=""kpi-bar-pct-positive"">"&NumberFormat(Abs(YTD True Up),"$###,###,###")
&" over charged", "<span class=""kpi-bar-pct-negative"">"&NumberFormat(Abs(YTD True Up),"$###,###,###")&" under charged")%>
</span>

In R11, that "kpi-bar-pct-positive" must have had colors associated with it because no where in here do I have a color setting for green / red but some of the text (specifically the "over charged" or "under charged") was certainly green and red prior to the upgrade.
