Posted on by MSCRM learner 170

Hi,

I have created five custom entities without applying any background color to the icons in solution supporting CRM 2016 and dynamics 365. 

But among them, 3 entities are showing green background color and 2 are showing grey background color.

Please help me to understand how MSCRM is considering the default colors of the entity icons. I want them to display having same background color without explicitly doing any customization.

    There is a "Color" property in General tab in entity properties that defines background color of entity image.

    Hi Ivan,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I have not applied any background color by the "Color" property in General tab, then why MSCRM is selecting the colors by default? I don't want to apply any background color. By default MSCRM should show them only in one color or is there any reason MSCRM is showing 3 of the icons in green and two of them in grey color ?

    I have never experienced such an issue before, all entities that I created were shown with the green background. Maybe it's an issue on a new version of Dynamics 365.
