Can't change the style/colour of my welcome screen background...

I'm not happy with the backdrop that appears on my display when my MBA starts up, before I log in to my user account. So I'm not referring to the wallpaper that you'd see on the desktop if all your applications were minimised or closed, but the background when you first switch the notebook on (visible when the theme tune is played, and the apple symbol shown). The MBA I purchased in September had a lovely background that was a subtle cross hatch of dark and medium grey. The newer model, purchased this June (after I destroyed the first one through water damage) has a boring, solid light grey background instead. I haven't been able to work out how to alter this in system preferences. Does anybody know a way, or do I have no choice?
Thanks.

That startup image cannot be modified or altered. If you try to do this with third party softwrare, your Mac may not boot.
It's part of the startup sequence.

In Pages when I go to FIND how can I change the highlight colour of the found word? At the moment it is a very pale grey and not easily seen.

Well, it might depend on the nationality of your keyboard, but on my US keyboard, the tilde ("squiggle") is above the TAB key; on a Mac, ⌘-TAB cycles through the active applications and ⌘-tilde cycles through the windows in the front application.
When you do a Find, Pages selects an instance of your search text (the next one after the current selection, I think, but I didn't check that). It doesn't make the document window the front window, though. If you click in the window to bring it to the front, it moves the selection (or insertion point) to wherever you click unless you click on or above the ruler. Try clicking at the top of the document window after you do a find; say somewhere near the document name. Now you should see the highlighted selection (your search text). If you click back on the Find window, the selection will go grey again, unless you hold ⌘ down while clicking.

How can I change the style of a row in tableview?

Hi,
How can I change the style of a row in tableview, for example ,I have 10 items in table view, and I'd like to change row 1,4,10 background-color:red; font-family:Arial ,Font-Weight:BOLD.
Any suggestion?

Yes, I knew how can I change the style using cell factory. there is a lot of work to do if it has so many columns in table view. we need to implement every cell factory, Do we have a simple way to change the whole row style , just like fabsav said, I 'd like to set the special row like this line:
tableview.getItems().get(i).setStyle("myRowstyle"); And I found a bug if I implement my functionality with cell factory way, I can't change the cell style after rendering cell.
protected void updateItem(Object object, boolean empty) {
super.updateItem(object, empty);
}updateItem() was only triggered while cell is being rendering, there is no way if I'd like to change the cell style after rendering event.
Hi fabsav, How can I apply a CSS class to a specific row? Can you please provide a short example?

Can I change the highlight colour from grey?

Can I change the highlight colour when searching for words in a Pages? I find the grey is hard to see. Thanks, Mike

Mike,
As Fruhulda noted, this is a System behavior (and a source of irritation and questions since the beginning of—OS X—time). It's part of the System's way of showing which is the active window, and extends to other System set colours as well. The most noticeable (if that's the proper term for these inconspicuous non-colours) is the greying of the thumbs in the scroll bars.
Do Provide Feedback. But make it OS X feedback instead of (or as well as) Pages Feedback.

How can I change the grey colour of all window headings they're too hard to see?

how can I change the grey colour of all window headings they're too hard to see?

Hi Chris,
The only way that I know of to change the colour of the window headings, these,
is in the System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing > Display and change the White on Black settings, using grey scale in there to helps, but it also opens a hole lot of other issues as it reverses all colours throughout the system. You can switch it back and forth as shown on this setup screen.
Other than that, maybe changing the screen resolution so that all items are larger or zooming the screen when you require it by holding the Control button and scrolling the mouse or two finger scroll on the trackpad.
There may be, of course, a third party app that changes the colours by searching google.
Hope this helps

Hi,
Stroke styles are disabled in HTML5 Canvas document type as the target platform doesn't support those. Please check your document tab if it reads '<yourfilename> (Canvas)' then you have created a HTML5 Canvas document.
If you have created HTML5 document by mistake, then you can copy paste your layers into AS3 document then you can change the stroke style to your desired option.
Thanks!

Hi there
Well, this is a yes and no answer.
Yes, you could change an icon, But no, RoboHelp won't make it easy. What you will end up doing is massaging the JavaScript code for the WebHelp output. This particular change isn't really for the faint of heart. Oh, and you would likely have to change it each time you generate your WebHelp output.
I would encourage you (and others) to consider submitting a Wish Form to ask Adobe to put this on their radar for a future version.

Can I change the Black colour of my ipod touch 4g with new white one?

Can I change the Black colour of my ipod touch 4g with new white one?

You can't get a new color iPod for free. Unless you paint it (which I highly reccomend NOT doing), you must buy a new white iPod touch. You can't trade your iPod touch in for a white one.

Can you change the pasteboard colour in the new Indesign Creative Cloud?

My work has just upgraded to creative cloud for all adobe programs, which is great, except for one thing...
The new pasteboard colour is really dark, and feels backwards when I swap between viewing the pasteboard and the preview display.
Is there a way for editing the colour of the pasteboard? I found that I can change the preview colour in preferences but can't see anywhere where I can adjust the pasteboard colour.
Thanks for answering my question!

I was wondering the same thing, as it seemed like my pasteboard just disappeared. I'm working on some documents that only have a very small amount of pasteboard around the document, and it was driving me crazy. I'm used to having unlimited space to work in. But it wasn't letting me do anything outside the document.
Changing the theme colors and/or unchecking match theme color doesn't work to get the pasteboard area back. It only changes the color during preview.
I finally found the place to fix this. It's under Guides and Pasteboard, at the bottom: Pasteboard Options. You can set pasteboard margins there.
Kind of a dumb thing to have to do, but there it is. I now have my pasteboard back. :-)
Hope that helps.

Using digital editions in my Nook. Can I change the reading to white print on black background?

How can you change the style of a flash tabnavigator with css

I'd like to change the colors of a tabnavigator in flash
form.
I found an example how to change the layout for a panel but
it doesn't inherate it to my tabnavigator.
Here a simple example for a panel that works:
quote:
<cfsavecontent variable="contentPanelStyle">
panelBorderStyle:'roundCorners';
backgroundColor:#EFF7DF;
headerColors:#CBEC84, #B0D660;
</cfsavecontent>
<cfform name="myform" width="420" format="Flash"
timeout="100" >

<cfformgroup type="panel" label="With styles"
style="#contentPanelStyle#" width="400">
<cfinput type="text" name="someinput" label="your name"
/>
</cfformgroup>
</cfform>
Actually, I just want to colorize my tabnavigator items
(don't want even a panel around it). How can I do this, as example
with the same colors like the panel?

Found 1 solution for the active Tab
quote:
<cfform name="myform" width="420" format="Flash"
timeout="100" >
<cfformgroup type="tabnavigator"
style="themeColor:##CC0000;">
<cfformgroup type="page" label="Tab 1">
<cfinput type="text" name="someinpu1t" label="your name"
/>
</cfformgroup>
<cfformgroup type="page" label="Tab 2">
<cfinput type="text" name="someinput2" label="your name"
/>
</cfformgroup>
</cfformgroup>
</cfform>
But still, how do I controll the colors of the inactive Tab
and the highlight Tab (rollover mouse)?

How can I change the style of a google map in Adobe Muse?

I have seen some nice changes of google maps out there.
This tool helps you to customize your maps.
http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/styledmaps/wizard/index.html
When I want to integrate a google map I copy in something like this:
<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="https://maps.google.de/?ie=UTF8&ll=50.111772,5.50415&spn=1.657435,3.177795&t=m&z=9&output= embed"></iframe><br /><small><a href="https://maps.google.de/?ie=UTF8&ll=50.111772,5.50415&spn=1.657435,3.177795&t=m&z=9&source= embed" style="color:#0000FF;text-align:left">Größere Kartenansicht</a></small>
the style code i made looks like:
[ { "stylers": [ { "invert_lightness": true }, { "hue": "#00b2ff" }, { "lightness": 5 } ] },{ "featureType": "road", "elementType": "labels", "stylers": [ { "visibility": "off" } ] },{ "featureType": "poi", "elementType": "geometry", "stylers": [ { "visibility": "off" } ] },{ "featureType": "poi", "elementType": "labels", "stylers": [ { "visibility": "off" } ] },{ "featureType": "transit", "stylers": [ { "visibility": "off" } ] } ]
Where should I copy the style code?
I have no idea... :-/
Please help!

The style code is JavaScript that goes into the respective script section. It says so on the Google Maps API page.
