Can I set a "default color" for new layers?

I find myself constantly changing the color of new layers back to my favorite: Magenta. Is there a way to just make this the default new layer color?
I understand the reasoning of using different colors for each layer, but so many standard colors do not preview well, with the artwork, I find them useless. I'd just as soon use one color.

I have a hotkey for an action creating a new layer but unfortunately the layer color option cannot be recorded in the action. What I do is create a bunch of layers I would eventually need, select all of them in the Layers panel and double click on the selection to open the options dialog where I can change the layer color for all at once.

Setting a default color for messages in Mail

I figured out how to change the default font & font size in messages in the Mail application, and how to change the color in my signature, however I cannot figure out how to set the default color for new messages?

Hi,
Look at the Mail's preferences, under Composing. Select where you like to save notes and todos.

Set a Default Calendar for New Appointments in iCal?

I never found a post with a sufficient answer to this question. However, it seems as though I may have stumbled on a resolution myself.
iCal has it's own default calendars: Home and Work. I use MobileMe so the MoblieMe calendar is listed there as well. I also have an iPhone 4. I wanted all calendars to syncronize automatically when I create a new appointment on any of the 3 locations (laptop, cloud, or phone). I found that when create a new event in iCal on my macbook pro, it wouldn't update with mobileme or my phone. This was because when I double click to create a new event, iCal automatically puts the new event into my "Home" calendar, even though it was unchecked and not highlighted. As soon as I double click to create the new event, iCal's default kicks in and the Home calendar in the "On My Mac" section suddenly becomes checked and highlighted all by itself and the new event is automatically placed there, never to be updated with the cloud or on my phone.
I think the problem may be related to something I read under "How Do I Set a Default Calendar for New Appointments in iCal?" There a solution given was that the uppermost calendar was being defaulted to and it was suggested to drag the desired calendar to the uppermost position. None of my calendars would drag anywhere. However, I find that if I uncheck Home and Work in the column on the left under "On My Mac" AND then click the arrow so those two calendars are hidden (very important), and then check and highlight the only showing calendar: MobileMe, that (so far) when I doulbe click to create a new event, a new event is created in the MobileMe calendar, and Home and/or Work under the "On My Mac" section never becomes checked or highlighted. So the new event is created only in the MobileMe calendar listed and updates on my laptop, in the cloud, and on my phone.
So far that has been my experience; but, it has been only minutes since I tried that, so let's see what happens after a couple of weeks or so of normal use and see if the problem is actually resolved.

I have been searching for this information for weeks now -- thank you!
This works for Google Calendar as well as for Mobile Me. I'm going to type a little more information here to see if I can help this answer come up more quickly for other users when they keyword search as I was doing.
This answer helped me reset and change the default calendar for iCal. I can now set my Google Calendar as the default calendar in iCal. When I create a new event in iCal, it syncs to Google Calendar as the default calendar without having to choose another calendar. All my iCal new events now go directly to Google Calendar and sync to my iPhone and iPad. I couldn't move the gmail google calendar to the top position, and just unchecking Home and Work didn't change where new events defaulted. Now my new events automatically go from iCal to google calendar, and I don't lose track of any events. I think you can set any calendar as the default iCal calendar for new events using this approach.

Hi,
The problem exists in my project still exist.That is it.
When I did not set weblogic.jsp.encoding to GB2312 in my web
application(web.xml), and when the jsp file contain's chinese , the
output
will be error(error chinese) .And when I did not set it , the output
is
correct, but when I use request.getParameter("SomeFormElement")(theelement
inputed chinese), the return value is error(still chinese error).And
when
I
am in windows nt english version and do not set this property, all
these
two
problems dispear. And I try to compare the java files those were
generated
by weblogic from the jsp file , there is only two additional clause
in
the
java file. That's it:
((weblogic.servlet.jsp.JspWriterImpl)out).setEncoding("GB2312");
response.setHeader("Content-Type", "text/html; charset=GB2312");
(the web.xml has <context-param>
<param-name>weblogic.jsp.encoding</param-name>
<param-value>GB2312</param-value>
</context-param> to be set
So, I think maybe it works well if I change the default locale toenglish.
And unfortunately, your method is also failed.(I have to use weblogic

Would you please help me to solve this problem?

How can i set the alternating colors for a table rows

Dear All,
Please any one help me how can i set the Alternating colors for Table Rows.
i created a theam there i set the background alternating color to brown and i set the table design properity to alternating. but it is not reflecting.

Hi,
The design property in Table properties should work for your requirement. Select "alternating" value for design.
Please see the API below:
design
Determines the appearance of the table. The property design can take the following values and is represented by enumeration type WDTableDesign.
alternating - The table rows are displayed alternately in a different color.
standard - The table background has one color. The individual table rows are displayed with grid net lines.
transparent - The table background is transparent. The individual table rows are displayed without grid net lines.
Check whether you have changed the right property or not? Also table should contain more than one rows to test this scenario.
Regards,
Jaya.

How can I set a default zoom for the browser (freeze it)?

Hello, there's an option of using the Ctrl + + to zoom the Web page, but it reverts to the Firefox default zoom in the midst which is very annoying. Generally, I'd like to be able to set a certain default zoom level and then only if needed use the CTRL +/- zoom in and out options. So my optimal zoom level is used for all my browsing unless I change it.

I have listed 2 add-ons below for you to consider. I have not used NoSquint, but I use and rely on Default FullZoom Level.
*You can set a default zoom level in DFZL Options
*You can use the mouse scroll wheel on the Add-on Bar DFZL icon to increase or decrease the zoom or click the icon and choose from the available zoom percentages.
*In NoSquint, it says it saves the zoom level by web site/page.
*'''''Default FullZoom Level''''': https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
*'''''NoSquint''''': https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
**More info on NoSquint: http://urandom.ca/nosquint/
You can also set a "Minimum Font Size" in Firefox Options > Content > Fonts & Colors Advanced".

How Do I Set a Default Calendar for New Appointments in iCal?

I have two calendars in iCal. How can I set one to be the default when I create new appointments?

I have the same problem. I have an "Automator" calendar listed under "On My Mac" and my personal calendar listed under "Google Calendar"
I want New Events to default to my personal calendar under "Google Calendars" but the "Automator" calendar is first in the list and I am not able to reorder them (tried drag and drop and renaming etc). And, since I have automator scripts running frequently the Automator calendar is usually the last calendar 'used.'
I cannot find any way to set my personal calendar under "Google Calendars" to be the default for New Events....am I missing something here?

Setting a default calendar for new events

Hi,
I've just upgraded my Mobile Me account in respects to the Calendar. Now on my Mac I get the option to show Me (On My Mac) & Me ([email protected]). Currently I have both selected, but this gives me duplicate copies of certain events. An error I assume from when it transf the calendars to the new Mobile Me Calendar.
To save on any future duplications, I'd like to set a default Me calendar under which all events are created. I cannot see how to do this on either my Mac or iPhone 4. I've read various tips and suggestions, but none seem to work as I suspect they are for older generations iPhone or iPods.
Can anyone offer any advise?
Thanks, Gordon

Gordon,
Currently I have both selected, but this gives me duplicate copies of certain events. An error I assume from when it transf the calendars to the new Mobile Me Calendar.
What you are observing is not an error. The "On My Mac" calendars serve no useful purpose. Make sure that all of your events exist under the "MobileMe" source, archive your "On My Mac" calendars, and then delete them. That will eliminate the duplication that you are experiencing.
I'd like to set a default Me calendar under which all events are created. I cannot see how to do this on either my Mac or iPhone 4.
The first calendar listed in the iCal Calendars source list will be the default calendar. Choose your iPhone default calendar in iPhone>Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>>Calendars>Default Calendar.

How can I set a default currency for all my Numbers 03 files - currently it's Lithuanian!

I have Numbers 03, and I downloaded bought some extra templates through an app in the app store. Graphic Node Version 1.6
When I open the templates, the default currency is Lithuanian, and it appears that I can only adjust the currency cell by cell, column by column page by page.
I want the default currency for any of my work to be Aussie Dollars so I don't have to change the spreadsheet each time I want a new file.
Can this be done?/

G'day 5508,
Some thoughts. Try System settings first (this may not be the culprit).
System Preferences > Language and Region > Advanced > Currency > Australian Dollar
I can only adjust the currency cell by cell, column by column page by page.
Forgive my stupidity, but if the currency is a cell format in the template, can you select all currency cells at once, then change the currency? You will have to do this separately for each Table, but within a Table, you can select a range of cells. Quicker than cell by cell.
Once you have reformatted the document that emerged from that template, save the document as a template with the same name to overwrite the old template.
Hope this helps, mate.
Regards,
Ian.

Tax codes - can you set up default value for rows and freight? HELP!

Hello - I have two issues with tax codes:
1. When adding a sales order if any of the rows do not have a value for "Tax Code" I will get an error "Row without tax was found".
- How can I get all rows on my sales orders, documents, etc to default to a specific tax code? Or will users ALWAYS have to enter the tax code?
2. When addring a sales order with Freight, if the order is added without adding a tax code to the freight I will get an error "Expense with tax was found"
- How can I get the tax code have a default value? We always use the same tax code, so it is redundant to have to enter this information.
Any suggestions?

Hi Jhon,
this is the simplest and best way to make a Tax Code default is Go to
Answer for Question 1
Administration -> Setup -> Financial -> Tax -> Tax Code Determination (Click on this)
in that screen you can set a default tax code for both sales as well as Purchase.
If you want to set Tax Code based on Vendors or Customers or Items separately then you can use the Key Fields.
Answer for Question 2
Once you enter the Tax Code in the freight i think it takes the Tax Code itself, I'm not so sure about this one though.
Hope this helps you out
regards,
Shreyas
