<p>Hi,</p><p> </p><p>From what you are describing in the links, you are trying to alternate colors in a crosstab. With a little bit of scripting, you can easily do it. I have attached an example based on Classic Models. The main steps are:</p><p> </p><p>- define a variable in the beforeFactory if the report (rowNb);</p><p>- increment the variable in the onCreate event of the row group (Country);</p><p>- test the variable with a modulo expression on the onCreate event of the measure data item to change the background color.</p><p> </p><p>Hope this helps,</p><p> </p><p>P.</p>
