ofabro 1 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Hi there, I prefer to use the highlight nodes tool instead of the coding stripes. However, I would like to be able to tailor highlight colours according to each node. At the moment, I can only use yellow for all. It would be great if this could be implemented in the next version. fabrolino Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Long 2 Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Hello Fabrolino, Do you have any suggestions as to how you would like the highlight represented when multiple nodes (of different colors) code the same content? Regards Adam Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ofabro 1 Posted March 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Hi Adam, I could not find an easy solution for that point... maybe overlapping coding should always be coloured in grey... it is not perfect but it is something. I like the colour stripes, but in my case, for example, I have to main tree node code families. I would like to colour one of them (actors) with one colour and another one (issues) with another colour. The idea to use multiple highlighting colour scheme came from that... best, fabrolino Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sarina 2 Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 +1. 4 years on - it would be good to at least have some more options in the Highlight section - for example, being able to highlight at least 2 nodes in the text in different colours. At the moment, the highlighting doesn't actually TELL you much - other than it has been coded - if you chose to highlight for more than one node- because you can't see where coding for one node stops / starts - unless you use in combination with coding stripes.

MauCap 0 Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 +1 9 years on - it would still be nice to be able to have more options in terms of highlighting-color , e.g. select speakers/cases and assign color to each would be nice in terms of reading some materials.

Liz B 0 Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 I have just started using Nvivo today and googled how to change the highlight colours to match the node colours. It seems I'm out of luck with a solution judging by the other comments here. 11 years and counting? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stacy Penna 1 Posted April 13 Report Share Posted April 13 Actually in the latest release NVivo (Release 1) you can change the coding stripe colors and then when you click on the coding stripe it show the coded text highlighted in that color https://help-nv.qsrinternational.com/20/win/Content/coding/coding-stripes.htm?Highlight=coding stripes#Changethecolorschemeforyourcodingstripes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
