Fill in colour for repeating subforms

[mmgiath]

I have a repeating subform with max count 5 subforms.

Is it possible the 4th and 5th repeating rows to have another fill colour?

Here is the script I use for the Add Instance button:

_Item.addInstance();

Thank you

Here is the script I use for the remove Instance button:

if

(_Item.count > 1)

_Item.removeInstance(this.parent.index);

Item is a row in a table.

Hi,

First off, I would not be inclined to name an object/subform "Item". It is very close to a reserved word "item".

Also in the addInstance() method, you should pass a parameter. The default is true.

One route would be to use the layout:ready event of the repeating subform. This is not very efficient, as the layout:ready event fires so often as the user interacts with the form. However it will deal with situations where rows are added and removed.

if (this.parent.index >= 3) {
     this.fillColor = "255,129,129"; 
}

This might give you a start,
