Apple Mail color coding both font and background

Is there a way to color-code both the font and the background of emails via Rules? As soon as you set a rule to color code one of them another becomes unavailable. This is probably by design but then I'd say this is very stupid design. I do not see any reason why both can not be set except that nobedy from Apple uses this feature .

Before starting to complain, I have to admit that Mail.app made me switch from other rss and mail applications. It works well and I like having rss and mail in one program.
But I totaly agree with you, I found this post by trying to find a fix for this ugly header. Also it's a mistery to me why the source name is the main title and the subject is the smaller sub title...
And while I'm at it, just one more thing, this rss header or at least the title should be a link. So that if you want to open the selected post in your browser, you don't have to scroll down to the "read more" link.

Disabled font and background color

I am trying to change the font and background color of a disabled h:inputtext tag. Currently, if I set disabled=true on an h:inputtext tag, the background in gray and the font is white. I would like to somehow customize that to be background gray and font color black. Any ideas?

Apple Mail change my signature font

I need for business purpose to have a separate font for my email font and my signature. But everytime Apple Mail change my signature font according to the body font.
What can I do? (I didn't check the box with "use my default font")
thx
Andrea

I sign the pdf with a digital signature which includes a picture of my written signature. When I attach it to Apple mail or upload to mobileme, the signiture disappears. My clients see nothing. When I go back to the email in the sent box and open the pdf in the email there is no signature. When I open the original pdf the signature is there
This problem does not exist in outlook 2011, but would have liked to use mail as outlook does not support caldev
I don't know if I can explain it any better.

In mail, my attachments, both photos and documents appear in the body of the message. How can I get my attachments to appear as a separate attachment and not as part of the message. Thanks for your help, Karen.

Yep! And if you absolutely need (or think you need) that functionality, it is worth every penny.
As Don already pointed out, exactly what the recipient sees will depend on how they've set up their machine and what unnecessary 3rd party apps they might've installed to display attachments the way they want.
In theory, that is true. In practice, Attachment Tamer will cause more of your messages to show up as plain-jane icons on the other end. The problem is, after all, people running Outlook 2003 and 2007. These people likely aren't doing many system modifications.
If I were you, I'd use the free solutions provided above, save my money and let my recipients decide how they will handle their mail.
I completely agree.

Mail returned in different font and size

Hello,
Sometimes my mails are returned in a different font and size (usually Times 12px) from the default I have set (Arial).
I know this is a "common" problem but don't know the cause?
Thanks

You don't really have control over what font and size is seen by recipients of your emails, and even less over what their mail system does to fonts and sizes when it composes a return.
The important thing to remember is that Mail > Preferences does not send any font info to the recipient. To do that you must set the font for each message separately in the New Message pane. If the recipient also has html mail enabled, then they will most likely see the font and size you have chosen.

Tableview Cell - setting the font and background colors

Hi,
I am developing a BSP with a Tableview. The user asked me about displaying a row with a diferent color (font or background) when some data changes on this table.
I am thinking about using a Tableview Iterator to evaluate the content of a cell... but I dont know if I can change the look and feel of the row on where this cell is.
Has someone dealed with this? Can you tell me how?
thanks
Ariel

Actually this is the whole purpose of the Iterator.
I would suggest you take a look at the SBSEXT_HTMLB and SBSEXT_TABLE BSP Application as well as the following weblogs.
/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/09/15/bsp-150-a-developer146s-journal-part-xi--table-view-iterators
/people/sap.user72/blog/2004/09/07/bsp-howto-exploring-bsp-development-and-the-miniwas-620
/people/sap.user72/blog/2004/08/27/bsp-howto-tableview-iterator--column-header-graphics
/people/brian.mckellar/blog/2003/10/31/bsp-programming-htmlb-tableview-iterator
In those examples you'll see how easy it is to alter the content of the current cell or a cell with a specific value and output anything from graphics to input fields or dropdown boxes or even just change the text, color and styles of the content.

[Mail] change RSS header font and color

Hi.
I use Mail.app to read RSS and have some troubles with it. Let me show how does it looks like:
As you can see, RSS header at Mail.app use very large fonts for RSS title and entry, some about half of the header is the date. Hmmm. This is wrong. And I want to change this UI behaviour, but Mail.app doesn't contain settings for this option.
So, I looked Raw Source of RSS at Mail and saw some additional information about RSS and Mail:
X-Uniform-Type-Identifier: com.apple.mail-rss-article
<html><head></head><body><h3 id="AppleMailRSSTitle" style="font-weight: normal; padding-top: 5px"><a href="..." style="text-decoration: underline">Entry Title</a></h3>
I tried to find at least some mention of the AppleMailRSSTitle id in the system, but found none. And under the "tried to find" I mean this:
sudo find / -type f -name '*.*' -exec grep -H AppleMailRSSTitle {} \;
In general, I do not find a way to change the font size in the header. Help me solve this problem, because it looks disgusting.
Thanks a lot, dive.

Changing font and background color for all components

Hi,
This is my first time writing a GUI, and I'm pretty new to Swing and Java. I just recently switched from C++, and so far Java seems to be doing a nice job =)
Currently I have a gazilion components (textfields, labels, panels) and I'm wondering if there is a way to change their background/foreground colours without adding in setBackground/setForeground for every single component.
I've done some researching onto using Look and Feel, but there aren't any current ones that suits my needs. And everyone seems to mention that programming your own is pretty complicated.
My boss wants a slick white text on black background interface, so you can imagine that he's not very impressed with the current default greyish colours =)
Thank you for any help!
Cindy

Hi Cindy,
I'm not sure how effective a solution this will be, but you could try:UIManager.put("TextField.background", Color.BLACK); // Default text field background becomes blackThere are many more defaults you'd have to change and could probably achieve it more reliably and simply by creating or editing the properties file that controls the way the look and feel (even if it's the default) is implemented. Take a look at:

New Mail Color Coding

I have made rules in the past to color code new email, based on who it's from, etc.
My wife asked if there is a way to identify new messages by color coding. Once read, they would be normal again. Anyone know if this can be done?
Thanks
Shannon

I am having a %#@% of a time with colors too, but I do know this: if you start having things turn wacky colors, the easiest way to get rid of it is to go to the message (or shift-select all messages you want to change) and go to Format/Fonts at the top, and when the color wheel comes up, click one of the white squares at the bottom. That will take the color away--maybe in addition to eliminating the color from the rule, that will fix the problem? Good luck!

My apple mail has an error message and won't open after iTunes update 6/20/14

I have a MacBook 13 Aluminum using Mountain Lion/MavericksX. Soon after I did a random update for iTunes mid June 2014 I noticed that I could no longer open my mail on my desktop. I did tell Apple about it when the error message came up, but I haven't heard anything and the last update 7/1/14 didn't help. I can use Entourage, but I like Apple mail better. Any ideas? Yow
Message was edited by: yowwwwie
I had all but given up on the Apple mail. Then I remembered that I hadn't checked it since my last X update yesterday. So, I tried and of course, APPL fixed it. Apple is so fantastic. Sorry but there is no problem to work on.

Well I feel a bit silly about this. I gave up on Apple mail and was using Entourage. Yesterday I did the most recent update from APPL and hadn't checked to see if they'd come up with a fix. I'd written them to ask about it because the error occurred after the iTunes update so I figured there was a bug. I just opened it, and poof, apple mail again. It did go through something and dinged and opened. Thank you for writing me. Y

Avoiding hard coding of Font and Signature Path in RTF

Hi All,
I have to create a check printing program and this requires MICR font and signatures. right now i have provided the URL for signature in RTF and path where my font is kept.
The issue is everytime i am migrating my code from one instance to other i have to change both. Is there any way so that i can avoid the hardcoding of both.
Thanks
Aryan

Hi Helios,
Thanks for the help buddy. I have gone through document earlier and here also the path hardcoding has been told. I want to avoid that.
Regarding the Image i am using a standard Report for getting the check details and i don;t want to modify that part for getting the url value from there. I hope there is some other way to resolve this the way oracle uses for it standard reports.
Thanks
Aryan
