I’ve read through all of the forms on this subject but I cant seem to get it to work.

I’m looking to have different color map pins based off a TRUE/FALSE using the css.

Thanks!

Natively within Glide, that is with no CSS, we cannot have different color map pins on a map component.

If it is possible to do it with CSS, perhaps someone else can chime in.

I would assume they used CSS. Colored pins are not available natively.

I was the author of the original post. But it was using Classic Apps.

On the new Glide Apps, as far as I aware, there are no ways for you to dynamically assign custom color, since CSS lives in a manually entered box and applies globally. In Classic Apps, you can use Rich Text and point to a column value to do so.
