Value expression / format expression

Postby pasita » Tue Oct 23, 2012 3:37 pm

Do I get this right:
Although I have a value expression of type (times/opportunities), once I have a format expression in the stat that produces a string
-the value of the stat is actually the string
-I can no longer use the color ranges in the hud (as the value is said string, not a percentage)
-if I use any color conditions inside the stat, those are calculated before any hud "filters" (i.e. absolute position, relative position) are applied, leading to wrong coloring.

I believe that is all correct. I can't remember whether the issue with stat colouring and position was addressed yet, but if you open a Support Ticket with the question I'll make sure you get a notification.

So the conditional coloring of position filtered stats is a bug, not a missed feature.. good to know.
I have a bunch of such stats now screaming the wrong color in my hud. I know you can't give a date and I'm not asking for one, but I'd appreciate your best questimate on how far back in you bug tracker this fix is... scale of days, weeks or months would suffice. I wouldn't want to build a bunch of new stats and a bunch*2 custom columns that take the position into account if the fix is reasonably close.

Does the coloring by ranges that's done with the HUD editor take the positional filtering into account as of now, or is it waiting for the same fix?

Sorry, I mis-remembered - this was fixed a little while ago and I just did a quick test and it looks OK to me.
If you're having problems please open a Support Ticket with an example and I'll look into it for you.

Seems to me that the conditional coloring when the hud positional filter is in effect still doesn't work.
