I have a custom 2x2 multiview input for 4 inputs. Can I use a script to dynamically change the border color of each layer?

There is no (shortcut)function to do so

Alternativly use a (title)rectangle behind and use setcolor function (rectangle.fill.color) to change

Thanks so much for the help. Your solution is perfect for what I need. I can't seem to find or figure out the correct API call. I can change text box values but not background color. This is one of my attempts: http://192.168.1.236:8088/api/?Function=SetColor&Input=4rectangles&SelectedName=Rectangle2.Fill.Color&Value=#80FF00. My input name is 4rectangles. My rectangle is Rectangle2. Any chance you could help me out one more time?

Special characters need to be URL encoded SEE

............Rectangle2.Fill.Color&Value=%2380FF00

Also make sure the rectangle setting of hidden is unchecked (data tab in title designer)
