Property nodes for array contents (cells) by applying to entire array

[ChrisMusk]

I have an array of numbers that represent a count of passed/ failed tests that are fed in as Booleans (true is pass, false is fail). I want to be able to change the background color of  each fail cell to red if the value is greater than one and the same thing for pass, but green. I already do this on other projects, but it is only a couple indicators. In order to avoid have 60 property node (one for each cell) I would like to apply something to the array. I see "Create / Property node / array element" but there is no property for background color like there is for the individual contents.

I have attached VI, Thanks for looking.

I'm on an older version of LabVIEW, so I can't see your VI. In an array, the properties of all the elements have to be the same.  One way to get around this is to use a cluster of the display value and a color box, using the color box as the background.  That way you can make each cell whatever color you like.

I'll try that. My only overburdening the computer resources and slowing things down. I also need to remember to save my VIs as older versions to post. I just went from 2013 to 2019.

ALSO. While I am on here, did anyone else lose all of their profile history in the boards when the website changed? I went from having 13 years of history to looking like I joined today...

No.

Are you sure you didn't somehow generate a new username?

I'll check some history. If so, thank you and you will never see this profile again.

You were correct. It defaulted to my work profile, which I had never used. I am back in business, thanks!!
