Changing Template Colour using Workflow SDK Script

Workflow SDK Version 9

asked on December 3, 2014

Hi, is it possible to change the colour of a template through the SDK script in Workflow? I know I can get the RGB value of the template colour by using Template.GetInfo to retrieve an instance of TemplateInfo, but want to know if there is a way to set the colour, for instance using Template.Update?

Thanks

Yes, it is easy to set the color on a template in an SDK script activity. Here is a code snippet that will change the 'General' template to something close to Laserfiche orange;

        Protected Overrides Sub Execute()
            'Get a reference to the General template...
            Dim tInfo as TemplateInfo = Template.GetInfo("General", Me.RASession)
           
            'Set the color to something close to Laserfiche orange...
            tInfo.Color = Laserfiche.RepositoryAccess.Common.LfColor.FromRgb(220, 95, 19)
           
            'Persist the change...
            tInfo.Save()

            'Cleanup...
            tInfo = Nothing

        End Sub

The 'FromRgb' method accepts the integer values for red/green/blue and assumes the alpha channel is set to 255. The SDK documentation also shows that the LfColor object has a 'FromArgb' method that will allow you to specify the alpha channel value as well.
