Background images

I'm trying to add an image to the background but it won't let me do it from the media panel... I have to select it from a regular file browser which makes it a bit hard to get something from my iphoto library... I can work around this by dragging a dropping the picture to the desktop and then selecting it... but this does not "feel" like it's suppose o be done.
Is this a bug? A lapse?

Hey remybianca,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
I am able to reproduce the issue, currently there is no workaround as it will automatically zoom when seeing a background image on the BlackBerry 10 smartphone.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

How to specify relative path for background image in xsl

Hi,
I am generating a PDF from Apcahe FOP. I have an xsl for that, in the xsl fo:block I am displaying a background image. When the image path is absolute like..C:\image\logo.png it works fine. But I want to have the image in my WebContent\images folder and my xsl file is in WebContent\xsls folder. So when I try giving the relative path as ../images/logo.png, the image is not displayed.
Can anyone tell how to do this???
Thanks,
Sanjeev.

I have a fo:block like this :
<fo:block border-style="solid" border-width="0.2pt" text-align="left"
                         background-image="url('http://localhost:8080/Project/images/table_header_center.png')"
                         font-size="8pt" font-weight="bold" color="white" padding-top="1pt"
                         padding-bottom="1pt">
                         <xsl:value-of select="tr/td/span" />
                    </fo:block>In the above code you can see that the the background-image="url('http://localhost:8080/Project/images/table_header_center.png')"
has been given as absolute. The images folder is in my WebContent directory. I want this path to be relative to the context of my application , something like background-image="url('../images/table_header_center.png')".
Thanks.

In linux, saving a background image (set as Desktop)feature doesnt download my image to wallpaper folder..or even to standard "Save download" feature. Can I tell firefox where (what folder) to save my "Set as Desktop" picture?

When I find a suitable picture to use as wallpaper" I often right click and use the menu item "Set as Desktop Background". The file ""example.jpg" is saved in directory\folder "/home/user" rather than for example "/home/user/my wallpaper" or in the directory
"/home/user/Downloads". The latter as being set under the "Downloads" section on the "General" tab in the "Preferences" dialog box.
Is there a configuration file where I can change the default location to save my "Set as Desktop Background" images. Or better still can the menu be customized to launch the application that allows me to set my desktop wallpapers?
I am using the "PCLinuxOS" Linux OS but I have encountered this issue in many if not all the Linux distributions I have sampled.

Don't use "Set as Desktop". Use ''' "Save Image As..." ''' instead, and file it with your other "wallpaper" images so the operating system has access to those images.
IIRC, Firefox saves a "desktop image" to the Profile folder, and it will only save one image, at that. Change the image and the previous one is gone.

Washed out background image on Treo Pro

Hi:
When I set my background image on my today screen (check the box in settings, browse to image - use 320x320 resolution) I get a "washed out" version of the image regardless of its original color, tone or intensity. Images from the preinstalled themes are fine - vibrant and clear - but the user set images are very light (almost like a 50 percent transparency in Photoshop for example). I have tried both .jpg format and .png. Backlight settings do not cure this either.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

This question was solved.

Hi Again:
Upon further investigation, I have discovered that the options for setting background and transparency levels is found through the pictures and videos explorer not the file explorer.
As suggested I have set the transparency to 0 and the image (Crab Nebula through the Hubble space telescope) is as bright and vibrant as it should be.
Thanks again for the direction - it's much appreciated.

Anchored graphic as background image?

I am working with text flowing continuously through a master text frame unto multiple pages and I am trying to anchor a full-page background image (with bleed) onto specific pages. Is this possible?
I want the background image to stay with the relevant heading on each page. However, when I use "Object/Anchored Object/Insert" to do this with "custom" as the anchor option I end up with a frame on the same layer as my text. This is okay, but when I place an image in the frame, it covers the text I have entered in the text frame. I can see the dotted line indicating the anchor connection, but not the text it is anchored to. I can't change the order of objects within the layer because the "Arrange" options are greyed out. Changing the text wrap options does not help.

Thanks Bob! Really good to know. I will stop hitting my head against a brick wall!
Adding backgrounds to master pages doesn't really cut it since I still can't have them flow dynamically with the continually evolving text in this project. (I suspect I might be able to flow backgrounds with text in Word, if it came to it, but of course I chose InDesign to give me more control, particularly over the non-text elements of the layout).

Problem with Background image and JFrame

Hi there!
I've the following problem:
I created a JFrame with an integrated JPanel. In this JFrame I display a background image. Therefore I've used my own contentPane:
public class MContentPane extends JComponent{
private Image backgroundImage = null;
public MContentPane() {
super();
* Returns the background image
* @return Background image
public Image getBackgroundImage() {
return backgroundImage;
* Sets the background image
* @param backgroundImage Background image
public void setBackgroundImage(Image backgroundImage) {
this.backgroundImage = backgroundImage;
* Overrides the painting to display a background image
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
if (isOpaque()) {
g.setColor(getBackground());
g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
if (backgroundImage != null) {
g.drawImage(backgroundImage,0,0,this);
super.paintComponent(g);
Now the background image displays correct. But as soon as I click on some combobox that is placed within the integrated JPanel I see fractals of the opened combobox on the background. When I minimize
the Frame they disappear. Sometimes though I get also some fractals when resizing the JFrame.
It seems there is some problem with the redrawing of the background e.g. it doesn't get redrawn as often as it should be!?
Could anyone give me some hint, on how to achieve a clear background after clicking some combobox?
Thx in advance

I still prefer using a border to draw a background image:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import javax.swing.border.*;
public class CentredBackgroundBorder implements Border {
    private final BufferedImage image;
    public CentredBackgroundBorder(BufferedImage image) {
        this.image = image;
    public void paintBorder(Component c, Graphics g, int x, int y, int width, int height) {
        int x0 = x + (width-image.getWidth())/2;
        int y0 = y + (height-image.getHeight())/2;
        g. drawImage(image, x0, y0, null);
    public Insets getBorderInsets(Component c) {
        return new Insets(0,0,0,0);
    public boolean isBorderOpaque() {
        return true;
}And here is a demo where I load the background image asynchronously, so that I can launch the GUI before the image is done loading. Warning: you may find the image disturbing...
import java.awt.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.imageio.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.border.*;
public class BackgroundBorderExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
        JFrame f = new JFrame("BackgroundBorderExample");
        f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        JTextArea area = new JTextArea(24,80);
        area.setForeground(Color.WHITE);
        area.setOpaque(false);
        area.read(new FileReader(new File("BackgroundBorderExample.java")), null);
        final JScrollPane sp = new JScrollPane(area);
        sp.setBackground(Color.BLACK);
        sp.getViewport().setOpaque(false);
        f.getContentPane().add(sp);
        f.setSize(600,400);
        f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        f.setVisible(true);
        String url = "http://today.java.net/jag/bio/JagHeadshot.jpg";
        final Border bkgrnd = new CentredBackgroundBorder(ImageIO.read(new URL(url)));
        Runnable r = new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                sp.setViewportBorder(bkgrnd);
                sp.repaint();
        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(r);

How to set a background image to fill the entire screen on any device in a spark mobile application

Hi,
I started developing a mobile application with Flex.
I'm trying to set a background image to fill the whole screen. I've been stucked at this point for days now. I tried everything and no solution seems to work for me.
I'm using a TabbedViewNavigatorApplication and i need to set some background images on views.
I need my image to fill the entire screen on any device. i don't need to mantain image aspect ratio, just need it to be fullscreen. This seemed to work when setting a custom skin on the TabbedViewNavigatorApplication, however this blocked all my views for some reason and all components contained in view became invisible.
Can you please tell me how can i achieve this?
Kind regards,
Dan

Basically you need a larger image which can accommodate any device. The trick is to show only what each device can display, so therefore some clipping will occur based on device. Have something centered and towards margins have a gradient or just plane colors that way the stuff in the middle will be visible on every device while nobody will care if you are clipping from the color fill.

Background image path changes in Template

I have a template I've created, but whenever I attempt to
create a new page from that template the path to the background
image changes automatically causing it to disappear.
The template displays this path:
body {
background-image: url(../img/bg.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: center;
background-color: #E8F1FA;
While the page created from the template shows this path:
body {
background-image: url(file:///B|/Web
Development/website/img/bg.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: center;
background-color: #E8F1FA;
What is causing this? Thanks in advance.

can anyone help me get a leg up on this? Sorry to be such a noob. This is not my trade and i have more respect for you all now than ever before! sorry again,

You might want to reconsider the use of absolutely positioned div's for layout purposes...
it often leads to big difficulties.http://www.apptools.com/examples/pagelayout101.php
Regarding your loading gif, try defining a container for the picture
and position your loading gif as a centered non-repeating background for container
and insert your image in the container.

Animated gif layered above background image

I have a static background image which is displayed in a JPanel. I need to display animated gifs at certain positions on the base image. For every new frame of the animation, the paint method is called whcih attempts to load the entire base image + all the new animated images which is extremely slow!. It also means the animated gif keeps on getting loaded, and seldom gets beyond the first frame.
Im sure many people have had to do something like this. Is the solution to draw the gifs on the glasspane (or use layered panes), and to have a seperate paint method? or is their a simple approach like setting a special clip area.

thanks for the help...
The size of the background image is approx 400*400 pixels (gif or jpg), and the icons are 25*25, and have between 1 and 6 frames.
Here comes the code... I havent finished with the mediatracker stuff, but youll get the idea Im sure.
public void paint(Graphics g) {
    MediaTracker tracker = new MediaTracker(this);
    tracker.addImage(image,0);
    try {tracker.waitForID(0);}
    catch (InterruptedException e){}
    g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, this); //draw background image (approx 400*400 pixels)
    int ICON_ID = -1;
    Image img;
    //draw all the icons...
    //all icons have between 1 and 6 frames. 25*25 pixels.
    for (int i = 0; i < icon_IDs.size(); i++) {
      try {
        ICON_ID = new Integer(icon_IDs.elementAt(i).toString()).intValue();
        Point p = dm.getIconPosition(ICON_ID);
        if (isAlarm(ICON_ID)) {        //ITS AN ALARM - use animated gif
          img = getAlarmImage(ICON_ID);
        else                          //NORMAL ICON - no animation
          img = DataDefinition.getImageIcon(dm.getIconType(ICON_ID)).getImage();
        tracker.addImage(img,0);
        try {tracker.waitForID(0);}
        catch (InterruptedException e){}
        int width = DataDefinition.getSize(dm.getIconType(ICON_ID)).width;
        int height = DataDefinition.getSize(dm.getIconType(ICON_ID)).height;
        g.setClip(p.x, p.y, p.x+width, p.y+height);
        g.drawImage(img, p.x, p.y, p.x+width, p.y+height, 0,0,img.getWidth(this),img.getHeight(this),this);
      catch (SQLException sqle) {
        System.out.println("Could not find position of icon : " + ICON_ID);

Animated GIF as a background image on a C5-00?

Is there any way to get animated GIFs runnig as a background image on a C5-00? At the moment, it just shows a still picture....

Yes, Captivate 7. I'm re-working an old Dreamweaver HTML CBT program to bring it up to today's standards using Captivate. I previously had small cartoon hands pointing to the right or left to click to go to the next or previous slide.The pointing hands are static, but on rollover I had an animated gif of the pointing hand moving in the direction it pointed. I'm certain I can figure out a workaround, just wanted to see if there was a built-in way to have an animation be the 'over' state.

Firefox 4.0: Improper handling of Animated Gif background-image

FF 4.0 is giving erratic and incorrect displays of an animated gif on a project I am working on. I have prepared a very small sample that demonstrates the problem.
The problem occurs when an animated gif is used as the background-image for a div (it may also be true when used as a background-image for the body, but I have not tested that).
When a page is first loaded, the animated gif displays properly.
I would expect that the animation be displayed as animated either:
# On each page load
# On a page load with new session or when the image is removed from cache prior to loading the page. Otherwise the last frame of the image would show
The sample page is designed to test this.
IE: Behaved as in #1, i.e. the image was animated on each and every page load. (IE 8: 8.0.6001....)
Google Chrome: Behaved as in #2, i.e. the image is animated only when there is a new session or when the image is no longer in cache. (Version 10.0.648.204)
FF 3.6.8: Slightly strange, but acceptable.
* The image is animated on new session and on any reload button.
* The last frame is displayed if the location is reentered in the URL bar.
* The last frame is displayed if the back/forward navigation buttons are used.
* SOMETIMES the image is animated and sometimes the last frame is displayed when the change page button is pressed (i.e. Javascript change page).
FF 4.0: Just plain NOT acceptable
* Correctly animates the image on page load for new session
* Correctly animates the image on reload button following clearing the image from cache.
* INCORRECTLY shows the FIRST gif frame if the reload button is pressed.
* INCORRECTLY shows the FIRST gif frame if the URL is reentered from the URL bar.
* INCORRECTLY shows the FIRST gif frame if the page change button is pressed (i.e. Javascript change page).
* INCORRECTLY shows the FIRST gif frame if theURL is reentered from the URL bar after clearing the image from cache.
* INCORRECTLY shows the FIRST gif frame if the page change button is pressed (i.e. Javascript change page) after clearing the item from cache.
All of these tests were run with Windows XP-Pro (all service packs and updates applied).
I can find no clear specification as to what ''should'' happen with pages using animated gifs that are already loaded.
* I can conceive of rationales for always displaying with animation.
* I can also conceive of rationales for sometimes displaying the last frame, especially if the same page is being reloaded since many sites reload the same page in response to user form submissions.
# '''I can see no rationale for displaying the first frame of the gif and would suggest that this is a bug. '''

Can be this bug:
* [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641198 Bug 641198] – Rollover animated gif show only one frame.
You can try these nightly test builds to see if they behave better:
Fx5.0 ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla-aurora
Fx6.0 ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla-central
Create a new profile exclusively for each Firefox version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch each Firefox version with its own profile.

Problems to add a background-image to the widget Spry MenuBar!

With DreamweaverCS4 version 10.0 Build 4117, (italian language) I have tried to add a Spry MenuBar to the one website page.
But the problem is that I haven't understood where add my property "background-image": url(../immagini/Menu_Button_01.gif).
In the Application Page of Dreamweaver I have this screenshot:
But in the Preview Window of InternetExplorer 7 I have this strange behavior:
The "Menu_Button_01.gif" are a rounded square button made with PhotoshopCS4 and have a transparent background.
In the IE7 MenuBar doesn't appears as expected, without the transparent background!
1) How can I do to show my "Menu_Button_01.gif" image as transparent background in the MenuBar?
2) What is the correct CSS Style Rule to apply the "background-image" property?
(Example: "ul.MenuBarHorizontal li"? Or "ul.MenuBarHorizontal a"? )
3) Should I also apply the property: "background-color:transparent"? Where? What is the specific CSS Style Rule?
I have uploaded my little local WebSite to Rapidshare (100KB):
http://rapidshare.com/files/370735082/Test_Spry.zip.html
Please download it to inspect my problem.
Please response me!
Horsepower0171.

For a starter, you should not put your background style rules in the following. The accompanying descriptions will tell you this.
/* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are a fixed width */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    font-size: 100%;
    position: relative;
    text-align: left;
    cursor: pointer;
    width: 116px;
    float: left;
    background-image: url(../immagini/Menu_Button_01.gif);
    background-color: transparent;
/* Submenus should appear below their parent (top: 0) with a higher z-index, but they are initially off the left side of the screen (-1000em) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    font-size: 100%;
    z-index: 1020;
    cursor: default;
    width: 116px;
    position: absolute;
    left: -1000em;
    background-image: url(../immagini/Menu_Button_01.gif);
    background-color: transparent;
Then when you apply style rules to
/* Menu items are a light gray block with padding and no text decoration */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a
    display: block;
    cursor: pointer;
    padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
    color: #333;
    text-decoration: none;
    background-image: url(../immagini/Menu_Button_01.gif);
    background-color: transparent;
this will be overridden by the following rules. They replace your image with an arrow image.
/* Menu items that have a submenu have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenu and are set to use a background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
    background-image: url(SpryMenuBarDown.gif);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: 95% 50%;
/* Menu items that have a submenu have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenu and are set to use a background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
    background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRight.gif);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: 95% 50%;
/* Menu items that are open with submenus have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenuHover and are set to use a "hover" background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
    background-image: url(SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: 95% 50%;
/* Menu items that are open with submenus have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenuHover and are set to use a "hover" background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
    background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: 95% 50%;
There are one of two solutions
If you do not want and arrow, simply set background to none in the above four instances.
If you do want an arrow, include a down arrow image in a second Menu_Button_01.gif image called Menu_Button_01_DownArrow.gif or similar as well as a third one for your right arrow image.
I hope this helps.

Spry Menu Bar using CSS background image without losing submenu ( V) indicators

Spry menu bar sets the down and side submenu indicators using
a positioned background image. I have a requirement to use a
specific background image yet must retain the > and v submenu
indicators. Without having to generate full width custom background
images for each of the menu item types to include the side and down
menu indicators, is there anyway to use a generic background image
and show the indicators using just CSS?

Don't use reserved words in JS
var event = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("events.xml", "catalog/event", {sortOnLoad: "date", sortOrderOnLoad: "descending"});
event is such a reserved word. If you change this to event1 then all is well.
I hope this helps.

Background image on Interactive report column

Hi,
I have had a request from a customer with regards to displaying a background image behind a column on an interactive report.
The interactive report is used to show notes added for an individual in the application.
They want to display a note image behind the text to make the note stand out better.
Is it possible to add a background image to the each cell in the interactive report
Thanks
Kevin

Different background image (div) on each page of site complicated by template

Hope I can explain this: Below are specifics
- Using Dreamweaver cs5.5
- Making the pages from a template.
- Each page will have a different backround image; but the image is contained in a div tag (div name is .mainbackground) which runs behind the main core of the site, the image is not in the <body>
- The div .mainbackground is EDITABLE
- I have already made a specific css class to assign to that div on each page so that the image is different on each page.
- On the template page the div .mainbackground has no image class assigned to it (thus no background image)
- Since that div is editable I can then go into each page and assign the desired image class to it - works great. EXCEPT...... & here's my main question:
- In the code all of the other regions are contained IN that above mentioned div of .mainbackground SO that means that:
- if I need to update the structure of the pages I will have to remove the Editable region that controls the background image which would be - removing the .mainbackround editable region. Then go back to my template, make changes and save everything - thus all the changes will carry through to my other pages. This is good and bad because I would get all the structural changes but I would also loose all of the text specific to those pages.
-Then when I'm finished I would have to go back and first add an editable region back to the .mainbackground class and then re-apply the background classes back to the .mainbackground to fix the images on the pages again...
The site is very small site so I can deal with it but am I going about this all wrong?
Is there some template feature I'm not getting? I would like to keep using the template feature, and i do want a different pic on each page.....
I have attached a picture showing one page so you can see the background image - which will be different on each page.

If your Template has embedded CSS within the <head> tags, and the <head> has an editable region defined, you should be able to change styles in child pages.
TEMPLATE CODE:
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.mainbackground { }
</style>
</head>


CHILD PAGE CODE:
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.mainbackground {
background-image:url(page2-BG.jpg)
</style>
</head>
Give it a try.
