Color Picklist Value Based On Status

Another option is to use css and use a formula field to toggle your styling. This keeps your logic out of code and in data, which I find scales better. The general concept is to use merge text in your template field to insert a style value or dynamic class.

It could look like:

{{Display_Value}}

or:

{{Display_Value}}

In the first example your formula would need to reference a css class definition and in the second example it would need to output a color value.
