Orange background for some calculations

Classic Servoy
1

In the “Edit Table View”, on the calculations tab, every once in a while I see a calcualtion that is highlighted with an orange background. What does this mean?

I seem to recall that this meant a reserved name was being used, but the columns I am seeing highlighted with an orange background are things like:
bgColor Text
multiSelect Text
clc_primaryCommunication Text

I can not imagine that these are now reserved names in Servoy 4.1 (they were not in Servoy 3.5.10), but if they are, how do we rename these so that the form’s using this calc for their bgColor calculation are not affected?

Hi Gary,

They are orange because you use casing in the names. If I am not mistaken Servoy likes to have all fields/calcs to be all lowercase.

I see now that any calc field using camel case is highlighted in Orange.

Can someone confirm that only lower case calc field names is now recommended, and hence the orange background warning? No tooltip offered as is the case with column names that are highlighted in orange.

Sorry, I guess you were typing while I was typing.

Okay, thanks. I will see what I can do with Search and Replace to change them all to lower case.
