Dropdown box fill colour inheritance

Posted on by BabyD85

Hi. I have a dropdown box. This is using "switch" to use different colour fill, depending on what item is selected.

But when you then want to change said item, the whole selection part of the dropdown has now inherited the fill colour of that item. Can you change this so that it will still use the fill colour assigned to that item, but when you select it to change, the actual selection box has it's own colour?

This is my current code in "Fill"

Switch(
dd_user_level.Selected.Title,
"None", RGBA(226, 239, 240, 1),
"Interested", RGBA(226, 239, 240, 1),
"Basic", RGBA(248, 147, 29, 1),
"Intermediate", RGBA(0,97,166,1),
"Advanced",RGBA(6, 120, 61, 1)

)

Intermediate is blue, and now all items in the selection area are the same colour, until selected. I want this area to be a different colour, like white

@BabyD85 The Fill property controls the entire Color of the Dropdown. There is no separate Fill property for the selected area and the actual drop down. To achieve what you want to, you can place a Label above the Dropdown to cover the Selection area and set the Fill color of the Label to the desired color and the Text property to yourDropDown.Selected
