Using custom attribute to quick colorize in a plan
![]()
Hello,
I have added a custom attribute to user stories (and epics) and I would now like to use this custom attribute to color the work items in my product backlog. However this custom attribute does not appear in the content assist for the quick-find entry field, and if I type it in (for example, attribute:value) it does not change the color of any workitems. I have configured the plan attributes and the plan mode elements to include this custom attribute using the instructions here http://jazz.net/library/article/201 (and this works really well - I can group on the custom attribute and show the value in the plan). The icing on the cake would be to color the work items in a different color depending on the value of this custom attribute. Is it possilble to use quck-colorize on custom attributes? Thanks, Colin. |

After adding the attribute in the planning configuration, switch to the process configuration source. You will find an entry for the attribute you created, similar to this one: <attribute> <parameters> <parameter> </parameters> </attribute> now, add the following parameter to the attribute element: queryId="myAttribute" after saving the configuration, reopen the plan. You can now add colorize expressions such as myAttribute:value The attribute will also show up in the code assist I've opened enhancement 96894: "Allow a custom attribue's QuickQuery id to be configured" to allow configuring this via the UI -- MikeS Jazz Agile Planning team |

Dear all! Following this thread it seems I am almost there to define a color for a customized item.
I am working with RTC 3.01 and my project source code looks like this:
I have tried queryId = "..." in attribute id and in parameters, however I get an error message that Attribute 'queryId' is not allowed in that context. Do you have a working example? Thanks a lot! |
