Applet's background color?

Can I set new background color for applet?Gray is so boring.
I maybe saw this somewhere,but I can't remeber where. :/
Thanks for help.

import java.awt.*;
setBackground(Color.BLUE);
-or-
setBackground(java.awt.Color.BLUE);
-or, if not blue, then -
setBackground(new java.awt.Color(int R, int G, int B);
... check out java.awt.Color on the API docs

Applet-Panel, background color and size problem

I am writing an applet with simple form.
Form is having 3 rows and 2 cols (label and textfield). Each row I want to display in different color. So I created each row with 2 separate panel (one for label and one for text field - of which I set the backgroung color).
The total form is in one panel with grid layout (2 colmns).
My problems are
1)The space between label and text field (col width) can not be resized. I tried to use setSize but not giving any effect.
2)Another problem is when I am seting the background color, the textfield is also changing the color (textfield I want to white color only). This does not have any effect on Choice
3)The first label I wanted to use simple break but could not. I tried \n\t, \n, chr(13) + chr(10) etc but not getting any result so created separate panel.
My code goes here:
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class test1 extends Applet{
protected TextField refnoTextField=null, payerTextField=null, amtTextField=null;
protected Choice typeChoice;
public void init() {
     /* The mainPanel layouts components with BorderLayout manager
          which will hold form and button panel */
     Panel mainPanel = new Panel(new BorderLayout());
     Panel taxformPanel=new Panel(new GridLayout(3,2));
     Label l;
     //panel for tax ref no label
     Panel refnoLabelMainPanel = new Panel(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
//here wanted to use simple line break but \n\t does not seems to work not even chr (10), chr(13)
//so created separate panel (Payment Voucher Or \n\t Reference no.
     Panel refnoLabelPanel = new Panel(new GridLayout(2,1));

I do not want to go into detail, but there are some hints you can follow.
I am talking about AWT, not swing, you should decide which one you will use and don't mix the two of them.
If you want to run your applet in current browsers without requiring the java plugin, you should be aware, that most browsers support old versions of java and many convenient methods and classes are missing :-(
So
You can change the size of a label by putting it in a panel ( labelPanel ), whose layout is set to FlowLayout. Then you put in labelPanel another empty panel ( emptyPanel ), whose layout is set to null, and you set the width of the empty panel to whatever you want ( this is the gap between the label and the next component ), an the height to the least nonsero number possible, i.e. 1. Well, you can add to the labelPanel more components, if you wish. So, when you want a gap, use an empty panel with a fixed size.
You cannot use line break in a label. You should place more labels in a panel instead. I am not sure if the direction of FlowLayout can be set to vertical, but very probably it can. If so, that is your solution. If not - see what other layout managers you have available, but make sure your choice belongs to java.awt ! BorderLayout allows you to use up to three labels (=> 3 lines). And if nothing fits your needs, ... write a layout manager.
Well, hope I could help.

Different background color when loading applets

I can't find the information for when a browser loads an applet, to change the background color while the applet is loading.
I know there are other "optional" applet tags as well, but I can't find the information.
Any help is appreciated.

Also to get rid of the java cup image
<PARAM NAME="image" VALUE="" />
Or you can replace the value with a real image of your own

Applets foregrouded with html body background color

In our application we are using applets while loading applets ,applets controls are foregrounded with html background color thats why we are unable see applets properly.
please give us suugesion, how can we solve this problem.
thanks in advance..

The HTML editor is the 'FCK Editor' of old, and the config for it is stored on the server where all of the javascript for your server instance is stored. You can modify much of the configuration of the HTML editor. The documentation for modifying the configuration of FCKEditor is here:

How do I ge tthe background color of a browser window.

How do I get the default backgound color of a browser. I made my Applet with white as the background color. My supervisor's IE settings makes his IE background color tan. Is there any way I can read that "tan" from somewhere and use that as my Applet background color?

I am trying that, but it doesn't look like it is taking the parameters...
I display the text on the html page as well, it seems to display ok, but the applet is not taking the parameter.
<applet

[SOLVED] Gnome notification area has wrong background color

I'm using the Shiki-Brave theme on Gnome and all (yes, all) of the tray icons have the wrong background color. The color changes slighty if I select another Shiki theme, but is pretty close to the default gray. Strangely, I only have this issue on my desktop at home -- none of my other machines (two laptops and a desktop at work) exhibit the problem. I have ensured that the theme is exactly the same on all machines. Another oddity is that other themes (e.g. high contrast inverse) have the right background color!
The only thing I have managed to find via Google is a bug report against Gnome. Here is what I have tried:
* Removing and readding the applet to the panel.
* Blowing away all my settings (rm -rf .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .local) and setting things up again. To be sure I did not miss anything, I also tried creating a new user with a clean home. Still the same issue.
* Removing and reinstalling all of the gnome and gnome_extra groups. I even cleared the pacman cache to force a redownload.
Any ideas? I'm at a loss on what to try next.
Thanks!

I figured out the problem.
I have an NVIDIA card and I recently modified my X server to use Xinerama instead of TwinView. Xinerama was responsible for all this nastiness. Reverting to TwinView fixed the problem (and some other weird ones that started popping up).
Those of you with NVIDIA cards, avoid Xinerama!

A problem changing applet's background colour

Hi there,
I'm hoping somebody can help me with what I believe to be a problem I have in changing the background colour of an applet, the source code of which is posted below. If super.paint(g); is commented out, the background of the applet will be changed to whatever colour is specified, however if it is not the background will remain grey. As I understand though, super.paint(g); should be part of the program. What am I doing wrong? Should super.paint(g); in this example be part of the program?
Before posting this I searched the forums and looked at some of the Q's & A's about changing an applet's background colour but am non the wiser.
Thank you for your help.
Regards,

//The applets background will be set to the desired colour if super.paint(g) is commented out
//But the background will remain grey if the code is not commented out.
//What am I doing wrong?
//super.paint( g );
setBackground(new Color(50,150,255)); //Light Blue
g.drawRect(10,10,250,100); // Draw a rectangle 250 pixels wide X 100 pixels high to enclose the rest of the program's output
//Dispaly the results of the calculations to the user
g.drawString( "The numbers entered are " + userInput1 + ", " + userInput2, 25, 25);
g.drawString( "The sum is " + sum, 25, 40);
g.drawString( "The product is " + product, 25, 55);
g.drawString( "The difference is " + difference, 25, 70);
g.drawString( "The quotient is " + quotient, 25, 85);

You could try defining
public void update(Graphics g) {
paint(g);
}That's the only difference I see between your code and my applet code. If that isn't it, you could try getContentPane().setBackground(...) but I don't know how that could make much difference (I would think that the content pane is transparent...)
Another possibility is that, if you're using Swing, you probably shouldn't be overriding paint() and should stick to the paintComponent() method or whatever is appropriate.

Problem with changing background colors in JPanels

Hi,
I have made an applet with Grid Layout and I have added JPanels in each grid. I have assigned a background color to all panels.
Now what i am trying to do is, change the clicked JPanel's background color to "blue" on a mouse click and convert the previous changed JPanel's background to originally assigned color.
This is the code that I have used:
JPanel temp=null, m;
String tempc, m_color;
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me)
          m=(JPanel)me.getComponent();
          if(m!=temp)
          m_color=m.getBackground().toString();   // retaining current background color so as to change later
          m.setBackground(Color.blue);
               if(temp!=null)
                    temp.setBackground(Color.getColor(tempc)); // change back to original color
          tempc=m_color;       //tempc and m_color are Strings
          temp=m;               //temp and m are JPanels
     }When I am executing the above logic, background color changes to blue on a mouse click but the previously changed JPanel is not changing back to original color.
Can anyone please tell where is the above logic going wrong??
Thanks
Rohan

Hi Camickr,
I tried to do it without changing Color to Strings but i was getting an error in the line temp.setBackground(Color.tempc);, so i decided to change it to String and retrieve it's value in the method.

Losing background color in IE6/7

Hi all. I seem to be losing my background color in IE6/7
where my text ends in the content area. Firefox displays fine. I
would like the entire content area to be white all the way down to
the blue footer. I'm not sure if it's because I'm using float or if
I've made a mistake somewhere. This is the page:
http://www.thecreativeadvantage.com/clientzone/Ordway/sec_page.html
This is the styles, thanks in advance!!!

Not sure why you have the "" in your background-image:

Problem during upgrade from 10g R1 to R2 - background color

We are using Oracle 10g Forms , where we will have date and time display in every page of the form. Now we have upgraded the version from 10g R1 to R2.
In R1 , when the date&time flickers the background color will be in white color.
But in R2, when the date&time flickers the background color is in Grey color.
How to change the background color back to white. the date & time display calls the jar file to display the time. No change in the jar file.. I have changed the background color in the property palette of the date&time as white.. but still the problem exist..
Any suggestions or solutions , plsssss.......

How to give Common Background color for all JPanels in My Swing application

Hi All,
I am developing a swing application using The Swing Application Framework(SAF)(JSR 296). I this application i have multiple JPanel's embedded in a JTabbedPane. In this way i have three JTabbedPane embedded in a JFrame.
Now is there any way to set a common background color for the all the JPanel's available in the application??
I have tried using UIManager.put("Panel.background",new Color.PINK);. But it did not work.
Also let me know if SAF has some inbuilt method or way to do this.
Your inputs are valuable.
Thanks in Advance,
Nishanth.C

It is not the fault of NetBeans' GUI builder, JPanels are opaque by default, I mean whether you use Netbeans or not.Thank you!
I stand corrected (which is short for +"I jumped red-eyed on my feet and rushed to create an SSCCE to demonstrate that JPanels are... mmm... oh well, they are opaque by default... ;-[]"+)
NetBeans's definitely innocent then, and indeed using it would be an advantage (ctrl-click all JPanels in a form and edit the common opaque property to false) over manually coding
To handle this it would be better idea to make a subclass of JPanel and override isOpaque() to return false. Then use this 'Trasparent Panel' for all the panels where ever transparency is required.I beg to differ. From a design standpoint, I'd find it terrible (in the pejorative sense of the word) to design a subclass to inconsistently override a getter whereas the standard API already exposes the property (both get and set) for what it's meant: specify whether the panel is opaque.
Leveraging this subclass would mean changing all lines where a would-be-transparent JPanel is currently instantiated, and instantiate the subclass instead.
If you're editing all such lines anyway, you might as well change the explicit new JPanel() for a call to a factory method createTransparentJPanel(); this latter could, at the programmer's discretion, implement transparency whichever way makes the programmer's life easier (subclass if he pleases, although that makes me shudder, or simply call thePanel.setOpaque(false) before returning the panel). That way the "transparency" code is centralized in a single easy to maintain location.
I had to read the code for that latter's UI classes to find out the keys to use (+Panel.background+, Label.foreground, etc.), as I happened to not find this info in an authoritative document - I see that you seem to know thoses keys, may I ask you where you got them from?
One of best utilities I got from this forum, written by camickr makes getting these keys and their values very easy. You can get it from his blog [(->link)|http://tips4java.wordpress.com/2008/10/09/uimanager-defaults/]
Definitely. I bit a pair of knucles off when discovered it monthes after cumbersomely traversing the BasicL&F code...
Still, it is a matter-of-fact approach (and this time I don't mean that to sound pejorative), that works if you can test the result for a given JDK version and L&F, but doesn't guarantee that these keys are there to stand - an observation, but not a specification.
Thanks TBM for highlighting this blog entry, that's the best keys list device I have found so far, but the questions still holds as to what specifies the keys.

Can I change the background color of a video thumbnail to view a silhouettes transparancy in Bridge

I see this question asked a ton on here, and never EVER am I finding an answer. I know in the past (Adobe CS 5) in Bridge you could view the transparency of a black silhouette image against a medium grey so you could see the content of the clip. Adobe changed that with CS 5.5 & on, and never seems to want to answer question when we members ask. PLEASE ADOBE ANSWER!!
How can I view a black silhouette image in Bridge when Adobe had decided to make the transparency black instead of grey? (Ideally the transparency of a video file should show as a grid as it does in ALL OTHER Adobe products.
PLEASE HELP. We use bridge heavily in production to organize our assets, and this change not being addressed kills our asset searching time because we have to open each clip to view it, rather than being able to preview it, which is what the Bridge is for.
Thanks.
P.S. Do not tell me how to change the programs background color as this is not the question. The question is how do I change the color of the transparency display for video clips.

Hi Peter
The associated FCM file provides us a clue as to Captivate's
pedigree. What we know today as Captivate is a product that was
born into the world and dubbed "FlashCam". This file contains
information about margins. So FCM means, FlashCam Margins.
If all you are doing is adjusting the colors a bit, you may
copy the associated files to new names. Then modify the colors as
desired and all should be well.
Cheers... Rick

Hi,
several html tags have the attribute bgcolor, like
<body bgcolor="red"> or <body bgcolor="RRGGBB"> where RR, GG, BB is an hexadecimal value according to RGB color palette.
you can also work with CSS and in this case you affect the attribute style, which is also available in several tags:
document.body.style.backgroundColor="#EEEEEE"

<p class="c3"><strong class="c2">Using Octenol to Attract Mosquitoes<br /></strong><br /></p>
<p class="c3">Octenol is an natural chemical that occurs naturally as a by-product of plants and some animals that eat a lot of vegetable produce. If carbon dioxide is mixed with octenol, it has been found to be an attractant to several mosquito species. There are other insects such as no-see-ums and biting midges that are also attracted to this scent. It has been proven to be a very effective product, especially for no-see-ums.<br />
<br />
<img src="images/12137165-cartoon-stop-mosquito.jpg" width="168" height="168" alt="mosquito" /><br />
<br />
Octenol is also a pesticide ingredient that is used to attract mosquitoes and biting flies. It does not kill the insects; it only attracts them. It can be used in combination with other products and devices that do kill them once they are successfully attracted to the device. It is important to be aware that non-pest insects are also attracted and destroyed by some of the devices.<br />
<br />
If octenol is ingested, there is a possibility for toxicity. It is not, however, harmful in the air to humans, pets, or the environment. It is vitally important that it is kept safely away from children to avoid the possibility of ingesting. Placement of the attractant and device utilized to catch biting insects should be carefully considered. It should be kept safely away from children and pets.<br /></p>
<p class="c3">To be most effective in mosquito control, the attractant should be placed between the breeding grounds of the mosquito and the area where the people are located. There are range limits that the attractant will reach and this needs to be considered in the placement of the trap as well.<br /></p>
