Maps table: status related background color

Votes:

0

Goodmorning,

I inserted a table in my maps where I can see the list of WARNING/DOWN sensors (with big font, and no other text in the table so that I can easly read the error even from far away), is there a way to make the background color related to the status of the sensor?

Dear Andrea

Which map object are you using? A PRTG data table should already show a red background for red sensor entries.

Sorry for the late answer: I want to change the background color of varoius elements, for example an icon. I know that I can use a table (and atm I'm using it) but it could be a good thing to show the red backgorund even on other elements.

Dear Andrea

Our technical support for custom map objects is limited to providing a general documentation. When you look at other map objects, which already use a status related background, you can see how it is done in the objects, the core of the coloring is

#sensor type="colorclassofstate"

Depending on how you want to approach the issue, you can either try to change existing icon objects, or change existing status-colored objects to show the content you like.

As described in the aforementioned link, please don't change existing files, please always use a copy. This way you keep the changes with the next PRTG update.
