SYMPTOM:
A user creates a report with a metric whose values are either fixed red or currency negative red. The user then creates a threshold to display the red metric values as white font color with a red background.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. In tutorial, please copy the revenue metric to create a new revenue metric that is negative.
2. Create a report with the attributes revenue and category as well as the -Revenue metric from step 1.
3. Set the Metric values to currency and use the red negative option for the negative value display.
4. Create a threshold with the below parameters. Set the font color to white and the background color to solid red.
5. Notice that the metric values and background are both red.
CAUSE:
This is a known issue with Strategy Developer 10.x.
ACTION:
Currently this issue is being reviewed by Strategy for a potential code fix on an upcoming Strategy release. For negative currency values, use the black negative option.
WORKAROUND:
Avoid using a threshold that applies a red background to red font.
