Default Background colour

macbook pro mid 2009
Mountain Lion 10.8.5
Does anyone know what the default colour is on the background, I dont mean the desktop wall paper, the colur that sits behind it.
I know the default is blue. but not sure what the feault blue is.
I changed it in Descktop and screen saver.
Know it sounds a bit fussy.
I have gone into the colour picker, and selected web safe colurs, theres a few shades of blue, but has anyone got what the collour code is, for example 0099FF.
or is there a way to reset the default colour...without reinstalling mountain lion of

Default Background Colour not Black?

I'm having a very irritating problem with the Windows default background colour.
A while ago I had set it to this off-shade of yellow, but now whenever I make a new theme (or even load a saved one) my background colour reverts to this aforementioned yellow instead of whatever I have set it to. Which means my themes can never be saved
and loaded, lest I want to see that awful colour again.
A step-by-step process for those who are having trouble understanding my wording:
make new unsaved theme, bg colour is currently set to yellow. I switch it to black, it works as intended.
Save this theme.
Whenever I load the saved theme, the background colour is yellow, not black, despite all other personalizations saving correctly.
Is there a way to change the default colour so that all themes behave as intended, rather than reverting to my previously selected colour?

Hi,
Can you show us some different screenshots to know more about this issue?

Is there a way to change default background colour?

Hi,
I am frequently embedding U3D files into adobe acrobat and every time I need to manually change the "default" background colour from grey to white in the Show Advanced Options tab of the insert 3D dialog box.
Is there a way to permanently set the default background for all inserted 3D files to white instead of the grey default?
Thanks!

No.

Setting a global/default background colour?

Hi,
Is there a way in which I can set all objects in my program to have the same background colour with a global command, rather than have to do it for every single object seperately.
Dave.

Thats sounds about right, but come to think of it, I
dont want to set ALL components to the same backround
colour. I want to keep things like certain buttons
the same.What do you mean certain buttons ? With a Look and Feel class you can set the colors for ALL the buttons the same , and all the colors for say the text components the same , but if you want some buttons a certain color and other buttons another color I would Make my own button , say ColorButton that extends JButton, and then you pass a Color in the constructer and set se color ... Something like that ??

Default background messages

Hi,
I try to figure out how to change the default background of the message windows in Mail. I try to realise grey as the default background colour but I have not figured out any way to do this other that set it for each message individually.
Thanks in advance for feedback.

Here is some code that will display all the UIManager properties and the default settings.
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.*;
public class ShowUIManager {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        UIDefaults defaults = UIManager.getDefaults();
        System.out.println("Count Item = " + defaults.size());
        String[ ] colName = {"Key", "Value"};
        String[ ][ ] rowData = new String[ defaults.size() ][ 2 ];
        int i = 0;
        for(Enumeration e = defaults.keys(); e.hasMoreElements(); i++){
            Object key = e.nextElement();
            rowData[ i ] [ 0 ] = key.toString();
            rowData[ i ] [ 1 ] = ""+defaults.get(key);
            System.out.println(rowData[0]+" ,, "+rowData[i][1]);
JFrame f = new JFrame("UIDefaults Key-Value sheet");
JTable t = new JTable(rowData, colName);
f.setContentPane(new JScrollPane(t));
//f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
f.pack();
f.setVisible(true);

RGB code for the default JFrame Background colour

Can anyone let me know what is the RGB representation of the default
JFrame background colour. I think it is the same colour as the background of this message box.
Thanks,
Booh

have a look at Component.getBackground() which JFrame inherits. This should get the background color for this.

This should be easy! How can I change the background colour of my fields?

Apologies if this has already been posted but nothing has come up via Google nor the Forum search.
I'm sure this should be easy but it's really doing my head in!
I have a number of textboxes, dropdown lists, etc within my form - I have set Custom backgrounds on each which are visible within Design View. However, in Preview PDF all the fields have a default blue colour and only change to my Custom backgrounds when you enter the field.
Is there a way of removing the default colouring of fields so that it's the same as my Custom backgrounds? My Custom backgrounds are 'linear to bottom' so I don't want to just set border.fill.color to one colour.
Thanks for any help,

Hi,
If you include this Javascript in the docReady event of the root node (default "form1").
app.runtimeHighlight = false;
This will turn off the field highlight. It doesn't prevent the user from turning back on the highlight, but it will mean that your form opens with the highlight off.
Hope that helps,

Unable to set background colour JTableHeader in Java 1.6_18

We're moving our application from Java 1.4.2 to 1.6_18, so far without major problems but there's some small issues with the GUI. Originally we'd change the background colour of the JTableHeader, but in 1.6_18 that doesn't seem to work. Instead of colouring the complete header it just seems to draw an outline. It kind of gives the impression that there's something on top of the table header which hides the coloured background.
The code below shows what I'm trying to do, and gives different results when compiled in Java 1.4.2 and Java 1.6_18. It makes no difference whether I'm using the UIManager or setting the background directly on the JTableHeader.
The application still works fine of course, but it bugs me that I can't work out what the problem is, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I've already had a look at bug [6521138|http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6521138], but it makes no difference whether a new JTableHeader is set, so I think it's different. Also, the workaround for bug [4776303|http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4776303] has no effect so I think that doesn't apply either.

            // UIManager.put("TableHeader.background", Color.GREEN);

        final JFrame frame = new JFrame();

        // Tableheaders.
        final TableColumnModel columnModel = table.getColumnModel();
        columnModel.getColumn(0).setHeaderValue("First");
        columnModel.getColumn(1).setHeaderValue("Second");
        // Doesn't give the expected result in Java 1.6_18, the background remains white-ish with only a coloured border.
        table.getTableHeader().setBackground(Color.GREEN);
        table.getTableHeader().setForeground(Color.BLUE);
        final JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(table);
        panel.add(scrollPane);
        scrollPane.setSize(400, 100);
        panel.setSize(500, 500);
        panel.setPreferredSize(panel.getSize());
        return panel;

Ah yes, when I change that setting the background of the table header indeed gets the expected background colour. Unfortunately it also makes my desktop look hopelessly outdated :-( And I can't really expect my end-customers to change their settings just to run my little application. Still, I suppose this proves that the problem lies in the L&F?Seconded Jeanette's sentiment, this is definitely a feature, not a problem. You want system LaF, you get System LaF, with all the bells and whistles.

How to see the foreground and background colour without those sliders?

I've always found the Color Panel really annoying. A lot of space is taken up by those sliders, and I hardly ever use them.
Is there some way to hide the sliders, or—better still—put the foreground & background colours on the control panel? Shouldn’t the colours be on the control panel by default, always there in the corner?
I wonder how most people view the foreground and background colour? Does Adobe seriously expect users to have the large Color Panel constantly displayed (along with its rarely-used sliders), or perhaps we’re all expected to have the Tools Panel constantly open even though it only contains basic tools that most people know the shortcuts for?
Or is there some other way to see the foreground and background colours?
Or do most users not need to know what the foreground and background colours are?

Too big, i guess you don't remember the color palettes from ps 1 and ps 2.
You might want to look at configurator to make a smaller panel that just shows the
foreground/background color chips.

White default background color in indesign pdf file

When I export in indesign cs6 pdf file (I made a digital flipbook and I want to upload it on my website) there is a white default color in the background. Is there a way to get rid of this white default color or make it transparent in indesign?

Hello 99ctc,
We had a quick discussion about your query in the office this morning.
Are you looking to do an animated flipbook which will "float" on your webpage like an animation incorporated into your website... Or you just don't want to have a white background on your pages and would like a different colour?
We couldn't think of any way to do an animation without a white background with exporting from InDesign to PDF, I just don't think InDesign is the right tool for that job. InDesign is more for print publishing or Digital Publishing, not for web animation or creating things that look animated for web. InDesign defaults to a white page for all projects, although the page colour is easy to change it can't be made transparent.
So you can place a background layer in your InDesign document that matches the background colour or pattern of your website so that when you export your flipbook it will open as a document with a background that will match your page.
Flash, or possibly Photoshop and Illustrator depending on what final product you are trying to do, might be better tools for the job that your are looking to accomplish.

Clipboard/background colour in Illustrator CS4

I'm finding the clipboard colour in Illustrator CS4 very distracting when working - is there any way of setting this to a default of white as per CS3 (and also available in photoshop CS4).
The default clipboard colour is an off-white and doesn't appear to be very neutral on my screen.
The only way round I have found is to view the background/clipboard as a Transparency Grid and then make the transparency grid white, or hide the artboard altogether (which is annoying), both of these cannot be set as a default.
I have included a picture of a corner of the artboard, showing it against the clipboard.
Would appreciate a solution!
Cheers,
N

Thanks for that - another good solution but not possible for this to be a default setting either.
Does anyone else find this issue a problem - it seems strange to me as Indesign CS4 and the old version of illustrator both have pure white backgrounds, which are (arguably) easier to work with.
It seems a step backwards to have a fixed coloured background! Please make it a preference option Adobe!

Changing background colour of W995 (when you don't have wallpaper)?

Hello,
If i set my phone to have no wallpaper the background colour for the main screen is grey. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but does anyone know how to change this to black? I think it was black to start with but somehow it got changed and I can't see a straightforward way of setting it back to black using the Display options because on my phone (W995) there is option here for colour change.
Many thanks for any help anyone can offer

What I really want to do is to set the background to black, then have a picture that i've taken in landscape as my wallpaper. Because it's in landscape some of the background is still seen at the top and bottom and i want this to be black rather than grey. I'm sure it was before, I just find it crazy that it has changed and there is no easy or obvious way to change it back - especially as the default setting must have been black. I tried doing a reset of setting but it still came up as grey, even though I had to reset the time and date and so on.
I wish they just had a menu so you could select a background colour, but it seems that doesn't exist. Sorry to be seeming so difficult, because I appreciate your suggestions - I should have explained before that it isn't so much that I want a black wallpaper as a black background to put an image on top of as wallpaper.

Background colour of rootUIElementContainer

Hi All,
Can i change the background colour of the rootUIElementContainer to White ?
If yes, How?
My actuall problem is the i am having a group UI element and want that no part of the rootUIElementContainer be visible.
If this can be done then i needn't change the background colour.
Thanks.

Hi
By default its rootUIElementContainer i.e Transparent container u can change it to any container color option is associated with it change its layout to matrix then only it will comes as its property(applicable in CE versions only).
rootContainer is top level container so its visibility will effect overall UI i.e nothing will be display.So better let root will be there and further arrange/group your UI element in some different container .
Best Regards

Background colour in slide show

I could really do with changing the background colour in the slideshow to white in encore 2 to match the images that i have. Is this possible?
many thanks
ste

No, just import all your slides and use automate to sequence with the desired transition, or apply a transition between the first two slides, set that transition as default, move to the next slide and press CTRL-D. Repeat for the other slides. This is for Premiere Pro. Other NLE's may have different work flows.

Render/Lighting/Background colour buttons automatically switch on layers?!

Hi There,
I've discovered what is either a bug in Acrobat 3D v7 or a problem with my scripting (most likely the latter!).
I have a series of buttons that i've scripted so that when pressed, switch on/off various objects. However, when any of the Render Mode or Lighting or Background Colour buttons are pressed, all the objects (whether they've been switched off or not) are automatically switched on.
Does anyone have any ideas on why this is happening? I had intended to attach my pdf as an example, but there doesn't seem to be an "attach file" option here.
Can anyone help?
George

George,
This is not a bug, it is indeed intentional. The Toolbar buttons are for the User, and if they click on a button to affect the rendermode/lighting/Background color, the safest and most logical thing for us to do was apply this affect to every object in the scene, and show the results.
There are a Few ways you could solve this:
1) In the 3D Properties dialog, DE-select "Show Toolbar by Default".
2) Use a ToolEventHandler(), and re-run your functions after the user interacts with a given tool. You would need to keep a visibility state variable to know what to re-instate.
