In version 2.0 we implemented a new converter "DeadlineColorConverterEx", similar to "DeadlineColorConverter".

The first parameter is the deadline date of the object.

String parameters 2 and 3 are optional.

In the following example the text background is green if the article deadline is in the future, red if in the past. But if article workstate is "5 - Ready" or "6 - Closed" the bakground is green, showing that the article is complete. These 2 parameters can also work on different fields.

<TextBlock VerticalAlignment="Top" 

  Text="{Binding Path=[article.autoDeadline], Converter={StaticResource StringFormatValueConverter}, ConverterParameter=\{0:g\}}">

  <TextBlock.Background>

     <MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource DeadlineColorConverterEx}" 

        ConverterParameter="Tomato:LimeGreen">

        <Binding Path="[article.autoDeadline]" />

        <Binding Path="[article.folderRef.workstateRef.name]" />

        <Binding Source="5 - Ready|6 - Closed"/>

     </MultiBinding>

   </TextBlock.Background>

</TextBlock>

Implemented also in Web interface (article dirstyle).
