Hi,

I have a list of thing and a arrow symbol to the right to go to the details. I would like the color properties for the arrow to be red from the database. Is it possible to do?

Hi @Roger, if you’d like to have dynamic colors for icons in a list, you can replace the icon by an image, and connect it to an (image property) in the database, where you can place a different icon with the color you prefer for each record.

Please let me know if you’d like further explanation.

Thank you!

There’s a component made by @James_App_Maker that might help here!

Building on the native image swap approach mentioned earlier:

This method works well in list scenarios, as it integrates easily with (Simple Lists), Adalo’s recommended choice for optimal performance and speed, avoiding the overhead associated with custom lists or external components.

It ensures the app remains fast and lightweight, regardless of the number of items. :rocket:

@Roger, I’m happy to provide a cloneable example if that would be helpful.
