Hi all,

I design a dashboard with 3 panels and I hope to set different color to the background or headline of each panel to be able to read clearly.

Is there any way to assign each Panel into different color in XML?

Thanks

Hi @Jouman 

You can change panel colors using css.  Here's a run anywhere example dashboard (classic) that adjusts panel, header colors and panel widths.   

<form theme="light">
  <label>Example - Adjust Width and Colour of Panels in Dashboard</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="time" token="tokTime" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Select Time</label>
      <default>
        <earliest>-15m</earliest>
        <latest>now</latest>
      </default>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel depends="$alwaysHideCSS$">
      <html>
        <div>            
          <style>
            /* define some default colors */
            .dashboard-row .dashboard-panel{
              background-color:lightcyan !important;
            }
            .dashboard-panel h2{
              background:cyan !important;
              color:grey !important;
              text-align: center !important;
              font-weight: bold !important;
              border-top-right-radius: 12px;
              border-top-left-radius: 12px;
            }
            .dashboard-panel h3{
              background-color:lightgreen !important;
              font-weight: bold !important;
              text-align: center !important;
            }
            /* override default colors by panel id */
            #htmlPanel1{
              width:25% !important;
            }
            #htmlPanel1 h2{
              color:blue !important;
              background-color:crimson !important;

            #errorStatsPanel{

    </panel>
  </row>
</form>

Hopefully it gives you enough hints to meet you needs

@yeahnah  Thank you so much! This resolve my problem. 

However, if I want to make two panels into the same color format and use same panel id in both panels. html. html will report fail, is there anything to make 2 panels into the same background color and font color? 

<panel id="htmlPanel1">

 
Thank you so much.

Hi @Jouman 

Panel IDs must be unique, but you can chain the css so the output looks the same.  For example...

            #errorStatsPanel h3, #errorLineChartPanel h3{
             background-color:darkgreen !important;
            }

Another possibility is to have your default setting cover the 2 panels and then just define overrides for 1 panel.

Hope that helps and Karma would be appreciated if this has been useful
