I am looking at updating from V4 to V5 and would initially like there to be no obvious differences to the operator. In V4 we have a display of last sale in red implemented via the following action
In V5 I cannot see how to change the font colour or size although I believe this should be possible
Can somebody tell me how this is done and also what “Refresh asynch” is all about. (Note the 100 on height is where I have tried to change the font size but it has no obvious effect so i assume it is related to the height of the subtitle)
Try using inline HTML like code.<size 18>title</size>

Unfortunately, that just prints the tag as well, with no effect on the text.
Can you show what you did?

I tried adding the tag as you wrote it
And i tried a different version <style=“color:red;”> … </>. In both cases the tag was printed
.
I also tried adding the tag in the constraint of the rule with no success

Try putting < L > at the start if I remember in this action it needs the justification tag at the start for the rest of the formatting to work

Yep here you go you need to start with <L> as shown below, this allows the formatting that you add to work
<L><bold><block 0,0,0,0 #FF7F7F7F center 600><size 35><color black>Open Bar Tabs: [=TN('{REPORT TICKET COUNT:(TS.Status=Bar Tab)}')] Held Tickets: [=TN('{REPORT TICKET COUNT:(TS.Status=Hold)}')]</color></size></block><br/><block 0,0,0,0 #FF7F7F7F center 600><size 70><color black>Total: £[=F(TN('{TICKET TOTAL}')-TN('{PAYMENT TOTAL}'),'0.00')]</color></size></block> <br/> <block 0,0,0,0 #FF7F7F7F center 600><size 35><color black>Number of Items: [=TN('{TICKET QUANTITY SUM}')]</color></size></block></bold>

Hard to see what I am doing differently from your example, but it isn’t working

Seems I must have typed something incorrectly earlier as it is now working correctly without the tag
Thanks for your assistance and sorry for any time wasted.

No probs, it must have been updated in another release to be able to do it without that initial format tag
