Acrobat DC User Interface: Way to Change Theme? (Too Bright)

Just installed Acrobat Pro DC -- an first thing I notice compared to my typical darker themes (Windows, Office, and even previous Adobe product versions) is that the user interface is extremely bright. It's like surfing bright webpages, and hard on the eyes.
Is there any way to darken the UI (Themes, etc.) ?

I have to add my name to this series of complaints...
The new design is appalling. As others have said, it is way too bright with no contrast between documents and interface and no way to skin the UI the way you would like to. Not only that but it fails to remember where you last stored docs, instead featuring an annoying pop up asking me what I want to do next. Coming from the top design software suppliers in the world ( I thought ), you wonder why the team that designed this was not forced to lie on the floor while the rest of the Adobe designers laughed at them.
Seriously, was this designed for a 10 year old occasional user? Take that back a 10 year old would have moved on....
And that ghastly menu which takes up all that space with no contrast. And I know my name, you dont have to include it on the top right.
I really thought XI was a great tool and nice to use. This is a real step back.
Please give us some or all of the following:
A customisable interface
An option to choose an "old-style" Adobe Acrobat XI option if we prefer
The ability to remove annoying features in a proper preferences setting (such as my name - did I mention, I know who I am)
The ability to alter contrast
Advanced settings
etc etc - Everything anyone has said above
And please - if anyone at Adobe actually listens, do NOT take this design and transfer it to your other software.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • How to use own style sheet in user interface templates to change buttons, fields look

    I want to use my own style sheet to change the appearance of buttons, form fields etc. while applying my own user interface template. I know I can create an unstructured UI template to change logos, body color etc. but how do I apply css to buttons, fields generated by the portal components form wizard ?
    If this is not possible, how do I create my own form and get the same functionalities of a wizard generated form ?
    Thanks.

    Mrinal,
    I have solved that problem fortunately.
    What I did was to create my own unstructured user interface template. In the unstructured UI template, you can use style.
    for example, in between the <head> tags, write <style> tages and create own classes for buttons, textboxes etc.
    Then write a javascript to assign those classes to the buttons. Call the javascript function on OnLoad event in <BODY> tag.
    That will do the job.
    for example you have a style class called buttonclass for buttons.
    <script langauge=javascript1.1>
    function setstyle(form) {
    for (var i=0; i<form.length; i++) {
    if (form.elements.type == 'button') {
    form.elements[i].className = "buttonclass";
    </script>
    <BODY onLoad = "setstyle(document.forms[0]);">
    hope this helps.

  • 'Fuzzy' desktop icons: is there a way to change them en masse?

    I apologize if this has been asked before, but after searching the discussions I couldn't find a thing similar to this (non-critical but irritating) issue.
    I have had a Mac for some time, since Classic OS days. I've noticed that some of the older files I have still have what can best be described as old-style icons.
    I thought the best way to explain what I meant was to include a screen shot below. As you can see, the desktop icon for Millais' Ophelia is pixellated beyond recognition. Changing the files (via "Show View Options") to "Show Icon Preview" makes no difference. Looking at the file via Get Info shows that the file itself is AOK, that the Preview looks fine.
    This is not limited to GIFs... JPGs, PSDs, TIFs are all similarly affected.
    I was wondering if anyone knew of a quick and dirty way to strip or scrub files of their existing desktop icons and allow it to be rebuilt with the lovely OS X desktop icon... short of opening each file, saving it, and closing it again (which is a problem for JPGs and the inherent lossy-ness).
    Thank you in advance!
    sandra

    The problem is that the old files already have a custom icon, albeit a very old very small custom icon (they are 32x32 pixels, versus the "normal" 128x128 icons, or the now possible 512x512). When a custom icon is present, that is what Finder will display. If NO custom icon is present Finder will, if told to do so in View options, draw a lovely icon. Indeed, in CoverFlow view it will draw 512 icons.
    One way to achieve this happy state is to do GetInfo on a file, select the wee little icon at the top (a nearly invisible blue halo will surround it), and then do Cut from the Edit menu or with Command-x. This will remove the old custom icon without changing the file in any other way, leaving your jpegs in exactly the same state they were in.
    Doing this for a whole buncha files is obviously tedious. I suspect you get an Applescript or Automator action which would batch process a folder, but I'm not much of a scripter. People who are scripters are often very helpful, posting a cry for help in either forum might get you something to do the job:
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=724 The Applescripters are here
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1261 The Leopard Automators are here
    There is a little program called CocoThumbX you can download, then drop files in batches and check the box to Remove Thumbnail, and it will do so. It can also create new custom thumbnails, at 128x128 pixels.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • Premiere Pro CS5.5 User Interface Font Size

    After years of using happily using an early version of Premiere to edit DV I have finally upgraded my video hardware & software to handle HD.
    I am using Adobe Premier Pro CS5.5.1.
    I have a 24" WS full hd monitor as my primary monitor.
    Can it really be true that there is no way to increase the font size in the user interface aside from changing my screen resolution?
    The default font is too small for my old eyes to view comfortably. I'm fairly certain that the old version of Premiere I had allowed
    the font & other parts of the use interface (like the frames in the timeline) to be scaled.
    Have I somehow missed something in the settings, or did adobe really leave something this basic out of the user interface of an $800
    software package? Do I really have to change screen resolution or buy a bigger monitor to increase the GUI font size?
    AdvTHANKSance.
    Grizz

    I am so, so, sad at how America and the world has got so lost, it harasses the disabled (I am vision impaired) and the TBI (I am recovered some 30 year later) by keeping the interface letters so small I have no hope of figuring what does what, even though I have repeatedly spend (about) 800 dollars for Adobe (latest) CS5 Adobe Premiere.
    Just as Microsoft, abusing the user is casual, needs no explanation, only aversion, and the disabled and the ones actually buying the product can just take a leap- no right click, no text size changes (to the interface) in MS outlook, the directory tree inaccessible.
    I am trying to warn the USA citizen of problems I fight since 1981, and the very ignorance and letting things break down....keeps me from learning how to currently get my voice, video, camera (XF305) uploaded.  I have been told to throw away my 800 dollar (or so) Adobe Premiere, get a webcam, forget the 8000 dollar camera, and use You Tube to get a message uploaded direct, fast, without harassment.  Please tell me I do not have to start paying 50 BUCKS A MONTH to STILL not get to creating a video clip merged with another using Adobe Premiere, this breaks my heart to see the decay in the V.A. now widespread into everything, remember this was "not suitable for any purpose" warning Adobe carries from decades ago?  It is evidently more unsuitable then ever, UNLESS STOLEN then I hear it works perfectly and is a work of art.
    Rome fell NOT because the veterans were ignored, WHILE things broke down, a SIGN was the vets getting ignored, they being in the bigger government.  Here, modern vets ignored for decades, until too old to fight, and the entire USA seems to teeter, even blocking voices to mention this very same catastrophic issue- levels and more levels of obfuscation and solicitation to spend more money for ever less certain ownership.  Every cubic foot of a city lot taxed, legislated, as things break down

  • Quick way of changing duration of multiple still images.

    Hello
    I'm putting together a slideshow of 76 images. In the browser they have defaulted to 10 sec duration and I need to get it down to 2. Is there a way of changing them all in one go or do I need to go through and change each one individually?
    Many Thanks
    Adrian

    BTW, You can change the duration of the stills directly in the timeline
    by selecting them, right clicking and changing the duration field to desired length.

  • Best way to change the quality of multiple slides

    Captivate v5.5
    I have a project with multiple slides.
    Not sure how but some have a quality set to "Low (8-bit)" and others to "High (24-bit)"
    I want all slides to have the same (high) quality and wonder what is the most efficient way to change them all to the same ?
    Also  - what is the difference (in quality) between "Optimised" and "High (24-bit)" ?
    Noel

    Not so sure, but normally Optimized will adapt as needed more than just putting it to High.
    You can select all the slides in the Filmstrip, and then change the quality in the Properties panel, where  common properties for all slides will remain accessible.
    Or you can just override the slide quality on publishing by unchecking 'Retain Slide Quality' in the Preferences, Project, SWF Size and Quality.

  • Can't access User Interface on WRT54G.

    I can't access the user interface any more on my WRT54G.   Used to be I could access it with IP 192.168.1.1 over my network, (or using the internet www.mydomain.com:8080) and it would come up but very, very slow.  Now I can't access it at all.  When I go to the address, the login box comes up, and once I enter the login, it just goes to a blank screen.  I've tried multiple PCs, Firefox, IE.  Nothing works.  How can I fix this? 
    The router continues to work fine, and the LinkSys Advisor functions (slowly) I just can't access the admin user interface to make changes.

    Might be possible that the usernmae & password you are using is not working on the route ... make sure that you are using correct username & password .... if not then reset the router so that the password also gets resetted & you can use Admin password without any username ...
    Once resetted you need to reconfigure the router ... .& open the port 8080 for remote access ....

    Click here for information. If you can't reset them through the method described in that article or by sending yourself a rescue email(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section.
    It isn't possible to create a rescue email address without correctly answering two of the questions. Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.
