Context Name

A Context Name is a group of values that display in a particular form. You can configure different foreground and background colors for each item in a Context Name.

For example, you can use the Current Status context to configure the colors for the different statuses that display on the Current Situation form (Absent, In, Out, etc.).

Applies To

Indicates whether the color for the item will display in a row or cell on the form.

If you select Row, the colors of the context items you select will apply to the entire row on the form.

If you select Cell, the colors of the context items you select will apply only to the cell on the form where the context item displays.

Status List

Name of the context item for which the colors are being configured. The available options will depend on the Context Name you selected.

Sample

The Sample field shows what the cell or row will look like with the selected foreground and background colors.

Set Background Color, Set Foreground Color

Use these fields to select the background and foreground colors for the item in the Status List. The Sample field will show you what the colors look like on actual text.

When you select a foreground and background color, the color and its HEX value will display in the field.

You can also enter the color's HEX value directly in the field.

If you are modifying the colors for the LOW_ZONE, HIGH_ZONE, or MIDDLE_ZONE items in the KPI contexts, you can only set the background color.

Numeric Value

When you add or modify the LOW_ZONE, HIGH_ZONE, or MIDDLE_ZONE items in the KPI contexts, you can use this field to change the upper limit of these zones in the gauge charts.
