Emphasizing Data with Formatting

In forms and ad hoc grids, a variety of formatting options help you emphasize certain data.

For example, you can increase or decrease the font size and set the font color and background. You can even select a custom color. You can save or clear the formatting that you set. And in text cells, you can wrap the text.

About formatting:

  • Default: Formatting that your business process applies to indicate a state (for example, that the cell has Supporting Detail).

  • User Defined: Formatting that you've applied.

Note:

Where formatting styles conflict, the default formatting takes precedence. For example, you might format a cell and then change its value. The default formatting for a changed but not-yet-saved value overrides the formatting that you applied to that cell.
