Does anybody know how to change colors for the dropdown selector?

Hi Guys! My name is William Lopes, and I am new here… I am creating a interface for our laboratory and we were using AirTable’s interface. I know it may sound a little funny but in Airtable we had a color coded grid where we would mark off tasks for each patient that comes in and I would like to accomplish the same in Glide.

Example from Airtable:

What I am trying to do (I had to do a little workaround with emojis for now haha)

Hi William, welcome to Glide Community!

Yes, you can do it with Glide too. Just select the Tag as the column type in your table, point to a column containing the choices and define the column containing custom colors for your tags. If you don’t specify the colors, they will be applied automatically.

Here’s an example from the backend (unrelated to the screenshot above where the colors are automatically assigned)
