Is it possible to color code popop windows?
If yes where can I find the codes to use for the colors?
thanks

It's currently not possible.

But you can suggest it here: http://holdemmanager.uservoice.com/

Instead of colour can one hack the .pop
file to judiciously insert "\b"s to get bolded stats within the popup
table display, independent of the data's value?

For example, if the line does not start with _T
will the parser accept ("\b)data.ref("\b")
to bold the display of data.ref?

No that won't work. You could have a text line "VPIP\b" and all subsequent text will be bold.

Not fine enough control.

I'd like to bold/color the table entries in the popup matching
the displayed items from the Player Preferences panel
so I can see the context. E.g., maybe I have the btn value displayed
but the popup has CO and SB values too.

They are usually not all on the same row :-(

Using gobs of screen real estate(data in every other column):

Will this work?
_T("\b")
data.ref
_T("\b")

Don't suppose I could muck with the column widths.
They are all fixed aren't they?

Yes that would work but would leave blanks every column. Sorry you can't edit the widths. I'm glad someone is using the designer though!

Have made my own version of each of the default popups
so have gotten some experience with the designer :-)
Thanks for the feature.

Only recently discoverd the .pop files. Editing them directly would
have been less tedious than moving the lines one by one in the designer when I decided to "make this section go on top instead of on the bottom".

I think I would rather do popup development in a real editor
rather than the designer. Advantage to the designer for having the variable name tree built in though.

Sometimes I did use "blank" columns if the text of the
preceding column was "too long". That's how I stumbled upon
_T("").

How about making a _Null() operator which would change the
output but not advance to the next table position like _T() does.

_N("\b") for example would start bold
_N("\b") would stop



P.S. You might want to update the video to use the new style(?)variable names. The video has ones in the (old?) dot notation e.g. cb.flop. Some of the default popups seem to have carried that over.
Using the designer one can't make a popup using those variable names. Confused me for a while.

P.P.S Use open source code for a very small web browser window for popup display? Would be very nice to code the popup windows in a html/xml subset!

Enough rambling - time to play poker :-)
