LabVIEW
Multicolumn listbox highlight according to content
Hello, I would like to highlight the rows according to the code but also the color to disappear when user acknowledge it. Red for error, yellow for warning and green or transparent for acknowledged ones.
Do you have some idea about it?
Thanks

You can set the cell background color using property nodes of the MCL. (Read the help to learn how to set colors on complete rows/columns. There's a recent thread on this very topic.)
You can catch UI events on this MCL to handle user actions like mouse clicks.
Combine both to achieve your goal!

Actually i want the entire row to be in that color. i tried, that way didnt work.
Then you made something wrong.
The linked thread shows how to set the color of entire rows and even discusses how to improve speed when doing so…

The active one is being in that color but when a new row added it is changing, new row is being in that color
This happens when you prepend new rows!
I see two options:
- set the background color again as needed
- append new rows at the end/bottom instead of prepending…
Hi ocan,
please read the full help on this "ActiveCell" property to learn how to select not just the upper left cell (index [0, 0])…

I do understand, but when a new row added, colored row is getting white again
Then you need to apply colors again…
(In your VI there is no loop, so nothing happens "again" so far.)
