Can the automatic green design of topics marked as "done" be inhibited?

Hi,

in our flow-charts we often mark topics done that do not necessarily have a positive outcome. MindManager puts "done" tasks automatic to green and this is missleading for tasks that did not have a positive output. Can the automatic green design for tasks done be inhibited?

Thanks for your help, Bernhard

To amplify Darren's comment, all you need to do is click on the Enable button next to this SmartRule to turn it off. Alternatively you can edit the rule to apply another effect such as changing the text or line colour instead.

You could also incorporate an icon, tag or topic property which you apply to a task when the outcome is satisfactory, and edit the 100% complete rule to include this as an additional trigger. You could then set the rule so that the green fill colour (or whatever other effect you want) is applied only when both triggers are present.
