[oXygen-user] Set Color in Data Source Explorer

Mon Oct 26 07:21:36 CDT 2020

Hello,

I've logged a feature request to our issue tracking tool. For future 
reference it is issue EXM-46590. You will be notified when this is 
implemented.

PS:
This is unsupported and unofficial, but as a "hack" you can use HTML 
tags in the name of the Connection (Options > Preferences, Data Sources) 
to color code them. However, it's just the connection name that is affected.
e.g.
<html><font color=red>PROD <font color=black>Name
Note that you cannot use some characters in connection names (like /), 
so you cannot close HTML tags. But it's not necessary.

Regards,
Adrian
