Custom colors for field / column headers!

I wrote a Tampermonkey script to allow us to customize the colors of the field headers!

(Tampermonkey lets you install scripts in your browser to customize and add functionality to a site, in this case, Airtable! https://www.tampermonkey.net/)

To use it, you'll need to set up the exact field IDs and colors that you want those fields to be in this bit:

const colorMap = {
    "fldI5EIoOG25a85F7": { r: 255, g: 224, b: 204 },
    "fldxj4ka7M2FwkJAP": { r: 207, g: 245, b: 209 },
    "fldAPHkUW98PsaZV3": { r: 255, g: 234, b: 182 }
};

For the colors, just google 'Color Picker' and a bunch of options will show up (when I did this Google actually popped up its own Color Picker actually)

For the field IDs, right click the field header and click 'Copy URL' and then paste it somewhere, and it'll look something like this: https://airtable.com/appbvEVTtJoARHXPM/tblkT2pj3Ouz1wQRQ/viwKoIZQGVZEAfOap/fldI5EIoOG25a85F7

That last bit is what we're looking for 'fldI5EIoOG25a85F7'

Let me know if you have any issues installing it or could use some additonal functionality and I'll see what I can do!

I've also got a script that lets you set the entire column's colors in this other forum post

//Customization start

function applyColumnStyles() {
  let styles = '';

  Object.keys(colorMap).forEach(id => {
    const baseColor = colorMap[id];
    styles += `.cell.header[data-columnid="${id}"] { background-color: rgb(${baseColor.r}, ${baseColor.g}, ${baseColor.b}) !important; }\n`;
  });

  GM_addStyle(styles);
}

applyColumnStyles();
