How to change Data Grid script output colors in TOAD? - toad

How can I change the color of TOAD data grid? It seems that I have changed it somehow by mistake and I can not find a way to revert the colors to original one. This is a sample of color that I am currently seeing http://link.sheidaei.com/moidp
I am using Toad for Oracle version 12.0.

You should be be to change the data grid colors under 'Toad Options' (menu 'View/Toad Options'). Select branch 'Data Grids/Visual' and 'Styles'. All this in TOAD 12.1.

do these steps in Main Menu:
View /Toad Options
Data Grids/Visual
Styles/Active Style
select your proper style from drop down.

You can follow 5 steps like the below picture:

Attempting to use an IF VLOOKUP in a conditional formatting formula and getting invalid formula

I've got a list of data validated options that pull from another sheet in the spreadsheet (e.g. a list of options on a hidden sheet to make the drop down menu nice and neat) and I want to conditionally uncover checkboxes for options on the list that need them, but the conditional formatting doesn't like my IF VLOOKUP to uncover the square.
Right now I have it so the square is by default background colored black with the 'text' in the box black too, so the checkboxes are hidden. If you select an option with a checkbox needed, I want the formatting to clear (white background, normal text) so you see the checkbox as intended.
I've tried a few google searches but nothing seemed to clear it up for me.
=IFERROR(IF(VLOOKUP(A42,'Mastery Data
Table'!$A$25:$D$156,3,FALSE)=1,TRUE,FALSE),FALSE)
I'm using IFERROR because some options have no data in column 3 at all.
when referencing another sheet in CF you need to wrap it into INDIRECT:
=IFERROR(IF(VLOOKUP(A42,
INDIRECT("'Mastery Data Table'!$A$25:$D$156"), 3, 0)=1, TRUE, FALSE), FALSE)

Bolding values in PowerBI

I would like to bold values in a table on Power bi's canvas. Is there a way to bold a value in Power bi by using its wizards rather than programming?
Tried to search for an answer, but didn't succeed finding it.
You can change the text font style in Segoe UI (Bold) for workaround.
It seems this feature isn't currently available in Power BI.

Here is a community idea you can vote on if you want this implemented:

One alternative is to change the color of values, which you can do by selecting your table, going to the Format tab on the right, and find the Conditional Formatting section. (The Field formatting does not let you specify which rows to format, nor does it have any text markup besides color). In the Conditional Formatting section you can play around with the Font Color options by toggling it on and selecting values and colors.
Unfortunately this isn't exactly what you were looking for but this is probably the best way to distinguish values in a Power BI table currently.

Chartjs - button in legend to toggle all datasets show/hide

Is there way to toggle display/hide all datasets in a chart at once?
I'm working on a chart that will have about 30 datasets so that different sets of data can be easily compared... but it's a hassle to deselect 28 in order to just see two. Or to go from 2 to then select 25 to view.
I'd like to find some way to show all/hide all... I wonder if creating the legend via a callback would be required... and if so, how to do it (I haven't yet figured out how to use callbacks).
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Scott

Hover Over Text in PowerBI

Wondering if there's a way to make a text bubble show up when the user hovers over a metric in a Power BI report.
I have tried using alt text, but that does not show up anywhere.
I had the same problem just now, and the documentation page Create tooltips based on report pages in Power BI Desktop describes how to do this. Probably this functionality was not around in March 2018 (when the accepted answer was posted).
Steps
In summary the steps are as follows (assuming you already have a visualization):
Create a new page, name it Tooltip 1
On the Tooltip 1 page, go to Format → Page Information and switch on the Tooltip toggle
Go to Canvas settings and set the Type to Tooltip.
Create a text box via Home → Text box, fill it with the text you want to show when one hovers over your visualization.
Select your visualization
Click on Format → Tooltip
Set Type to Report page
Set Page to Tooltip 1
Now when you hover over the visualization, the text box from step 4 will be shown.
Additions
You can mark the page Tooltip 1 as hidden, such that it does not show up as a tab on your report.
You can also customize the tooltip size by setting the Page size of the tooltip page to Custom with suitable width and height values.
As described in the link, instead of text you can also create a whole visualization.
Currently, I don't think this is possible natively.
There are some ideas related to this that you can vote for:
Custom Alt Text (tooltip) On Hover Over Any Visual
Tooltip for Matrix visual (and others)
Tooltips for Tables
There is also a Dynamic Tooltip custom visual that you might be close enough to what you are looking for.
You can use a transparent shape as an overlay on the text you want the hover over test to appear on
Turn Action On
Type Page Navigation
Destination None
Tooltip - Add the test you want to display on the hover

Toad for Oracle - changing formatting on DBMS Output window

On the DBMS Output window for Toad v11, how can you change the DBMS Output font and color? I've looked all over in the options but I'm unable to find where it's possible it change this. It's way too small by default.
Options -> Oracle -> General. About halfway down is a box titled "DBMS Output" with a button inside titled "Font". Click this and it will open a new dialog box allowing you to modify the font type, size, color, etc.
For Toad 13.x, it is View > Toad Options > Data Grids > Visual. In the Styles section, you can drill into Edit to change the font and size.
please select View Menu tab from the taskbar >> Toad option >> Oracle Dropdown >> General>> DBMS output click the button Font and you can change from there.
Sam
For Toad 13, the DMBS Output settings are at View > Toad Options > Oracle > General.
