Cursor color change according to background

The default cursor is Black, and black tool-tips (such as slashes, carats, circles, eyedrop, etc...).  However, I have trouble tracking down a certain line segment or end-point when I can't see the black slash on the thick black border.   All I can do is change the item to white, make my selection, make the connection, then change it back to black.  Very time consuming and interrupts the creative flow.
Is there a plug-in or setting so that the cursor color changes from black to white according to the darkness/lightness of the background?    Or am I simply SOL?

Nope, that stuff is hard-coded. If you have difficulty in detecting thin elements, I suggest you use the colored paper simulation in the doc settings/ prefs and assign som contrasty color temporarily If you e.g. work with black and white, obviously something like a dirty lime green or greenish grey will work perfectly rfor both colors...

  • DS Planning Board Object Color Change according to Order Type etc.

    Hi,
    I want to differatiate the colors of the objects on the resource,
    according to their certain propertis, for example order type,
    But if they have the same status the sytem marks them on the same
    color,
    I went into the customizing for the BOARD Profile and color adjustments
    but there are only certain criteria and I could not decide
    which object type to which color,
    Does anyone know anything about it?
    Mehmet

    Setting up the colour or Order (or actually Operations) can be quite a challenge.
    Sugest you use the SAP standard, copy it and then change suitably.
    Follow this in SPRO >> APO >> Supply Chain Planning >> PPDS >> DS Planning Board >> Maintain Planning Board Profiles
    Here select the appropriate planning board profile, click on Chart. Select appropriate chart - like Operations chart will be a good choice.
    Then double-click on the Decision Table for Graphical Objects, check the last mentioned Decision Group and Decisions.
    That will have reference to Grpahical Object Id.
    Pick up the Graphical Object ID and then double click Grpahical Elements from the left pane. Enter the Graphical Object Id (Planning Board Profile is already chosen).
    Select the grpahical elements and click on the Detail button to see the Display Colour.
    So if you need to change the Operations based on Order Type like Fixed, Deallocated, Created etc. then change the colour of the graphical object here.

  • Color change desktop

    I was at a local store and they had a desktop that faded colors behind open windows. I know you can switch pictures but how about the fading? Is it a feature in the OS? Can I create a set of backgrounds that fade similarly? Where is the feature? Ideally what I'd like to do is put our company logo on all the desktops and have the colors change in the background. Is that possible or is that something that can be done for a screen saver? How?

    "they had a desktop that faded colors behind open windows."
    They probably had Dashboard active and were displaying widgets. When DB is active, all open windows fade and turn to a gray color.

  • Is there a way to disallow web pages to modify foreground color of elements if background of those elements was not changed as well (and vice versa)?

    I have very sensible defaults for my display; i.e. I have dark GTK scheme (dark gray background, light gray text) that suits me way more when working on my computer while it's dark around. I, however, like looking at web pages as how they were mean to be seen. Unfortunately, most of web designers don't think about anyone having non-default colors set up.
    Example one ( http://www.cedok.cz ):
    This site's CSS style has "color: rgb(45, 45, 45);" for the whole <body> but for <select> elements there is no "background-color" set. This means there is a select box rendered with dark gray background and dark gray foreground (text color). This is pretty badly readable (obviously).
    To mention one particular element from this site: e.g. <select id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolderLevySloupec_HledaniMultiTab1_HledaniZajezdu1_ddlTypZajezdu">
    Example two ( https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/desktop/customize/form ):
    On this page (where I'm currently filling in this question) the <textarea id="id_content"> has "background: ... rgb(255, 255, 255);" set, but with my default font color, this textarea is rendered as light gray text on a white background. Again, pretty unreadable (and eye-hurting).
    I can provide screenshots and more reasoning if needed.
    I'm asking if there is (or might be) an option (even disabled by default) or at least an add-on which would keep default colors unless both foreground and background colors were specified. I think this might make Firefox very usable for many people which like to have their default colors configured.
    In case you won't be able to help me by fixing this, could you redirect me to the right place where I could get this requested in a way that might be really possible to happen (bugzilla?).
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Thanks for the reply, but I'm sorry, no. I don't want any addon that customizes colors, I want to use default colors and only prohibit changing them unless both background and foreground colors are changed.
    I have made no color changes WRT to Firefox *only*, I just changed the default for the whole toolkit (gtk in this case). The thing I need is to disable changing *only one* property out of two ({back,fore}ground). Whenever the second one gets set as well, this new setting (both of them) may get reflected, but not before that. It'd be nice to keep this when changing the colors back (deleting the style), but that's not necessary.
    I hope that's understandable, feel free to ask for if that's not the case.
    To express what I mean a bit more precisely, see the attached image. In that image there are four textareas (one of the elements that gets affected by this). First one is a default one (which I want to have if the page has nothing set), the second one is nicely modified to fit for example to a blue-ish page (this one I like as well).
    Second row of textareas shows how the final element looks like if the page has only one of these elements set up. First one changes background without changing font color, the second one vice versa. Both of them are very badly readable, especially with low lighting around.
    This is consequently the same case when it comes to default page background which I cannot set at all, because too many pages have only "color:" set without changed background and that is completely messed up then. Going to extremes, I might mention all color-related modifications (see how ugly the borders look when the background is changed and nothing is done to these borders, their size and color is kept default), but I understand that's too much.

  • Is there a way to change the WHITE background color of the photo gallery/COLLECTIONS to BLACK.  IPad 4 ios 7

    As a Professional Photographer, I chose to buy an IPad 4 for only one reason and that was the amazing color and clarity of the Photo Gallery as a mobile Portfolio.
    Originally the background color of the IPad 4 Gallery was BLACK and this facilitated the photos greatly, photos look better and stand out better on a BLACK background. White backgrounds cause a glare eminating from the edges of the photo and cause iris in our eyes to close down, degrading the quality of the photo being viewed.
    I updated to ios 7 and now my IPad 4 has a WHITE background, which is unacceptable for viewing photos.
    HOW DO I CHANGE the WHITE background on the Photo/Gallery/COLLECTIONS to BLACK?
    Apple should ALWAYS give USERS/OWNERS of their products control of such details. IT'S JUST GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE!

    Vancouver22  Thanks for your help... the SLIDESHOW turned black for me automatically when the slideshow began. That works most excellent!
    Now if I can just get the White Background to STAY BLACK, this might not be as painful as I feared.
    My IP4 does lag slightly, but not enough to set fire to it yet.
    The gallery/COLLECTIONS/ALBUMS are the most important thing to me.
    Thanks!

  • How do I change the tab background color in Firefox 4?

    I just upgraded to Firefox 4. Tabs are now fine black font on dark grey background -- very hard to read. How do I change the tab background color?
    I have searched and the closest I can come is some instructions for modifying .css files, and it is not clear that those instructions will impact the tab background color.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Similar question asked by TH received another response.
    Here is the address of that question and answer:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/804464?s=change+tab+color+firefox+4&as=s
    I like the solution recommended there.
    Added information - after several days experience, I notice that some tabs occasionally revert to the original dark grey. So I am still looking for a better solution, ideally within Firefox rather than via add on. This seems like a basic setting for the browser that should be easy to change, rather than something so complex that I need an add on to change it. Or just build it without such a dark grey background to begin with and I would not need to change it.

  • Background color change question - only selecting the footer

    I use the darkroom theme and was curious about changing the page background color. Right now my settings use the darkroom theme 'right out of the box' which is 'image fill' on both the page and browser background. That is the textured look.
    When I try to change the color, selecting 'color fill' instead of 'image fill', it only changes the footer - not the entire page background.
    I'm guessing it's not possible to change a color using the 'image fill.' You get 'image fill' in black or gray as shown and that is it, except should you decide to use your own image, which I do not.
    Any way to be able to have a change apply to the entire page and not just the footer?
    Suggestions welcome.

    I tried to do the same just see what the problem was and failed. It is probably 'cos the top layer is independant of the page background or browser background. Even when I had page background none and altered the browser background it made no difference. If you want anything different try using a blank black or white theme and putting your own graphics on there. You can make quite nice backgrounds if you have a decent paint or photo program.

  • Trying to make a simple background color change.

    I double clicked the foreground/background black and white squares as usual. This brought up the color selector and I changed to the color I wanted. When I clicked ok the foreground color changed to a medium gray instead of the color I had selected?

    Are you in Greyscale mode by any chance? Image > Mode > Select RGB.

  • Why does JButton background color change when  clicking ?

    Hello,
    I have defined :
    JButton mybutton = new JButton(Icon xxx) ;
    with no associated text and I set both foreground and background colors to black, and an empty border.
    This is because the background color of the container which contents this button is also black and I want to see only the button icon.
    When I click on the icon , the button background color becomes grey. How can I change this to make it remains black ?
    Thanks a lot.
    Gege

    Well, the color changes because that is how the look and feel is defined,
    presumably to give better feedback to the user that she has clicked the
    button.
    If you don't want this, you could try using a different L&F which doesn't do this.
    Alternatively, If you've only got the one button, you could just do
        UIManager.put( "Button.select", Color.BLACK );If you have multiple buttons, and you want the other buttons to behave
    normally, you can extend the one button and have it change the color
    while it is pressed, e.g.,
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.net.URL;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class ButtonSelect extends JFrame {
         public ButtonSelect() throws IOException {
              super();
              setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
              JPanel panel = new JPanel();
              panel.add( new JButton( "Normal" ) );
              Image img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage( new URL("http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif" ) );
              ImageIcon ii = new ImageIcon( img );
              JButton b = new JButton( ii ) {
                   static final private String KEY = "Button.select";
                   public void paint( Graphics g ) {
                        Color save = null;
                        if ( getModel().isArmed() && getModel().isPressed() ) {
                             save = UIManager.getColor( KEY );
                             UIManager.put( KEY, Color.WHITE );
                        super.paint( g );
                        if ( save != null )
                             UIManager.put( KEY, save );
              b.setForeground( Color.WHITE );
              b.setBackground( Color.WHITE );
              b.setFocusPainted( false );
              panel.add( b );
              getContentPane().add( panel );
              pack();
              setVisible( true );
         public static void main( String[] a ) throws IOException {
              new ButtonSelect();
    }
