Background color missing

I'm a newbie just working on the Adobe Dreamweaver tutorial.
It instructs me to go to modify>page properties> click on the
background color box and select black (#000000). I did this and the
background color is still without color. When I open the page in
Safari, the black color is there in the background. It also is in
the code.....
I also tried this before only with a large background image.
It would not appear on the page in Dreamweaver but was in the code
and showed up when I opened it in Safari. Please advise. Thanks so
much!!

This page will definitely be black in DW. Are you sure you
are looking at
the right page? Do you have styles enabled (VIEW | Style
Rendering >
Display Styles)?

  • Background color missing in cover photo

    I created a three-layer cover for a book. The lowest layer was the cover color and the next layer up was a photograph and text. The photograph had been converted into a shape in Photoshop by outlining it with the lasso tool and then creating a new layer via cut. Thus, all that was left was the image without the background.
    The image, btw, was of a cat and the title of the book wrapped along the spine of the cat. All looked fine in InDesign and the subsequent PDF, but when the book arrived, the graphic box that was the cat had a white background rather than the color on the rest of the cover. Here's the PDF I uploaded. Thank you.
     

    This thread is 3 years old, and Ken is no longer here.
    I saw that you know about background images. Thanks for helping. I tried to use a Lulu cover image and accepted it; 3 times I tried and the image did not appear.
    Tried what three times if the Cover Wizard took it? Ken was meaning images created on your PC then uploaded though.
    The cover was white with title only.
    You mean that's what you were seeing, but it should not look like that?
    BTW. Do you mean for a print book or for an ePub?
    I saw that Safari issued a message box with a problem icon afterwards. I am using imac Retina (new computer), and I wondered if Safari was the problem? 
    Do you mean while within the Cover Wizard? That often means there's a problem with your image. Too small. Too big. Wrong file type. Too low a resolution. Any one or all of those. But you say the Wizard "accepted' it. Perhaps it means a Mac does not have the right software. Flash and stuff like that. I am no Mac expert.
    The Cover Wizard (and the main Wizard) creates Print ready PDFs and that is what you can preview at the end of each Wizard section. You need Adobe's PDF reader to view them.

    You are missing one or more photos - youprobably have a page background that requires a photo which is behind a page with photos on it - all pages must either have a photo or be a color - if you have a gray background it requires a photo - look through the book carefully and be sure to look at the background on any full page photos - you will find one or more missing photos

  • How to set background color in a scene?

    I'm new to JavaFX and just started my first FX program.  I created an FX project in NetBeans 7.3 and the project runs properly.   All of the samples in the JavaFX samples download run as well.  But when I try to do something as simple as setting the background color on my first scene to black, I can't get it to work.  I find examples and documentation that tell me that what I am doing should work but it does not. 
            Scene scene = new Scene(root, 300, 250, Color.BLACK);
            scene.setFill(Color.BLACK);
            primaryStage.initStyle(StageStyle.UNDECORATED);
            primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World!");
            primaryStage.setScene(scene);
    The two bold lines are marked as errors.  Unfortunately, I can't find a way to copy the error popup text in the IDE so I'll summarize.  Both lines are giving errors that say that I gave a Color but a Paint was expected.
    Is there something I am missing? Can it be this hard to set a background color in JavaFX?
    Thanks.

    Hi. Check your imports. You probably have
    import java.awt.Color;
    instead of
    import javafx.scene.paint.Color;

  • Master slide background color

    When I select the master slide on the far left (the slightly bigger one), and I deselect "project background" and change the "stage:" to a different color, nothing happens.  I am trying to use the solid color (paint can) and I put in my choice of Hex color (005983).  When I try the same thing on the individual master slides to the right, I also get nothing.  I even changed the Edit>Preferences>Defaults>Background color to the same color.  And I get nothing.
    I can (and have) put other things (logo, color bar) on the Master slide, and it propigates to the right on the other slides.  What am I missing? 

    There are objects on the main master slide, they are not merged into the background. Yes, you can set the stage color for a normal slide as well:
    What do you really want to achieve with selecting a blue color for the main master slide? It will not show up because you have objects on that slide that cover the stage color.
    I know, documentation is not very helpful. I have been writing a lot about Captivate to provide some clues, but not about master slides. It is a lot of work to write out documentation and I'm offering everything for free. Same with answers here, where Rod and Rick are also spending many hours trying to provide answers.
    Depending on the theme you started with, there can be a project background. You used the white theme. That background will always show up on the main master slide, even when you uncheck Project background. If you want not to see that Project background on a normal slide, but a full blue color, you have to unselect Use Master Slide Background, then unselect Project Background (is dimmed as long as you use Master Slide Background) and then you can use a stage color. Those settings I show in the screenshot.

  • Section Header Text Background Color

    Hi have a catalog that has a running section header that will be placed over a black graphic the width of the page header.  I would like to have a white background box appear the length of the header section text, but not be the full length of the text box defined on the master pages for the header.  I would like to do this in an automated fashion rather than manual placing the graphic around the header text on each page.  It won't work to place a white box under the text as it is part of the background already being a master page item, or am I missing something.  In brief can I have a background color that dynamically adjusts to the length of a text string?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    If that text has a character style (or if it doesn't give it one) make the character style include an underline, then make that underline really thick and give it a baseline shift.  The same technique is commonly used for highlighting.  There's a few other options you can play around with in the underline options too.

  • Help with Background Color

    Posting this for a second time -
    If I change the background color of my document, I can't see
    it, nor can I see the different fill colors of any symbols I add to
    Scene 1. The colors show fine when I run the movie. It is using the
    outline color to display all the objects on the work area whether I
    am in outline mode or not. I don't know what I did, but I could not
    find a menu item to turn it off.
    Thanks for your help.

    On the timeline, you should have 3 icons next to the layer
    name. If it's active, you'll see the 'pencil', otherwise you'll
    see: A dot or X, a dot of X, and then a square with a color.
    Each layer should have the square with a color. If the square
    has a black border with a fill, you are looking at the fills for
    that layer. Otherwise, if the border is a color, and the center
    matches the panel bg color, then you're looking at the outlines,
    but just for that layer.
    You may want to go through your timelines and make sure all
    of your layers are set to fill mode. Could be that you missed one
    somewhere.

  • Pages 5 can't change background color in fullscreen

    There's no option to change background color when in fullscreen mode anymore.
    Did I miss something or did apple just...get rid of it?????why???

    Hi, Mark,
    Under the Format menu select Advanced and the click on Make Master Objects Selectable. Now click on the red area. You'll notice little faint x's at the corners. In the Arrange menu click on Unlock. Now you can edit the color. (In this case a gradient.) When you finish, go back and Lock it again and deselect Make Master Object Selectable.

  • Background color does not show in a design mode preview

    Hi,
    I installed Macromedia studio 8 a couple of days ago, and
    started using Dreamweaver 8 with a "Missing Manual" book. I'm on
    first chapter and following tutorial. It says to change a
    background color to blue, and I did that. But this change was not
    reflected in a design mode preview. I checked the code and it's
    there. I viewed in an IE6, and it was there. My coworker installed
    an evaluation version on his pc and it worked fine. I guess it's my
    pc that has problem. I had IE7 and VS2005 on the pc when I
    installed Macromedia 8. Due to help crash, I uninstalled IE7. It
    did not solve the problem, so I uninstalled VS2005 and related
    programs, and it did not solve the problem. I uninstalled and
    reinstalled Dreamweaver 8 a couple of times, and it did not help.
    Does anyone out there who have similar experiences, please share it
    with me? I post this here before redo my pc. Thanks.

  • How do I send an email with a background color?

    I use google's gmail and they don't have the capability to use stationary or background colors.
    So I am trying a trial version of Outlook. Altough this is working I really don't want to have to buy Microsoft Office.
    Am I missing the boat somewhere? Does Lion have any email capabilities like this?

    Hope information from this thread helps.

  • JFrame background color

    I have a JFrame and I'm setting the background color in the constructor:
    frame.setBackground(Color.green);
    The frame opens up, and the background color flashes green for an instant, then it goes back to grey. What am I missing? Do I have to set the background color in the paint() method?
    TIA,
    Rich

    I found a post from back in April about setting the background color of the contentPane instead, and that works.

  • Why are photos hiding behind background color on pages?

    I am building a large book with over 350 photos as a gift for my 93 year-old father. I've done a number of books in iPhoto and am fairly experienced with the software. After the last system upgrade, this book seemed to be missing over half the photos. Upon closer inspection, I could tell the photos were there but with a colored background in front of them. I have moved and changed photos. Some stick and show; some don't.
    When I view the book on All Pages, I can see all the photos are there, albeit very small. However, when I click on a page to work on it, or enlarge the All Pages any, photos start to move behind the background colors and I cannot tell what photo is there. After much work on this last night, I can see all the pages had all the photos showing (in thumbnail view). At last, I thought. Made a PDF version to preview it, but the PDF has colored background in front of half the photos.
    I have spent hundreds of hours on this book and wanted to get it to my dad for Christmas (which will be late now) or before he dies . . . I have never encountered this issue on my other equally large books. Did the operating system upgrade cause this to happen?
    Please can someone help me? LaVell

    I found the black pages to show fingerprints.
