Custom Statusbar Color

• No-Code Rule-Based Coloring
• Pick any Odoo model from a dropdown and create color rules directly in the backend UI — no XML, no Python, and no developer involvement required.
• Automatic State Discovery & Rescan
• Statusbar states are detected live when a model is selected, and rules can be re-synced anytime to adapt to view changes while preserving existing colors.
• Per-State Dual Coloring
• Each workflow state gets an independent Default (inactive) and In-State (active) background color, with text contrast automatically adjusted between black and white for readability.
• Global Real-Time Application
• Colors apply across form, list, and kanban views and update live across active sessions via bus notifications — with no page refreshes and no view changes.

• Automatic state discovery with one-click re-sync
• No XML, Python, or developer involvement needed

Live Global Real-Time Application

Colors are pushed to every statusbar widget across the interface in real time. Changes made to a rule are broadcast through the Odoo bus, so all open sessions update instantly without a single page refresh — and without touching any view definition.

• Applies across form, list, and kanban views

• Instant highlighting of the active workflow state
