Colour Change

Postby PurplePicto » Mon Jun 16, 2025 4:35 pm

Hey everyone,
We've had some feedback that when accessing our different environments outside the top of the window there's no clear way to determine what environment you're currently in.
For example we use a live and test environment.

Is there anything I can do to change the colour of the UI to make it more clear when someone is in the training environment and in the live?

Exp: training is pink, live is blue.

There is a standard plugin, "Warehouse Styling" - enable that and in the code you'll see where it maps a style to the warehouse name - you should be able to "paint by numbers" and adapt that to suit your needs.

Don't even paint by numbers the attached plugin which actually work off a style file, there are ones in the Jiwa program directory, and change the look of Jiwa.

Just make sure you set the system settings for the location of the file and the name of the database to style.

The example I showed uses style files... the ones in the Jiwa program directory. It selects a style based on the warehouse.

Yours is probably more suited to the needs of the OP, if it's a system setting which defines the style, regardless of warehouse.

The reason the one I posted exists is we have had situations where a customer's staff have done days of work in the test database, so we have deployed this in quite a few places given it's a common request. :lol:

The plugin I posted was also based upon the one you pointed to if memory serves.

It may not hurt to have something like this deployed as part of the standard setup for Jiwa as another ERP I know has it built in to deal with the same issue.
