Feedback Colors
The background colors of cells indicate if:
-
They are read-only.
-
An unsuccessful attempt has been made to edit their contents (for example, if an invalid entry was made), or a required data is missing (that means, in the case of a blank cell that should be completed).
-
Their contents have been edited successfully.
-
To highlight various conditions, for example that their contents have been claimed (See Manage Claims for further information).
In the example below the cell with the blue background was edited successfully, the cell with the pink background was not edited successfully, and the cells with a grey background are read-only.

The colors used to indicate these conditions can be specified by the user for each list.
