Can't set a background

I can only set my background to one of the provided pictures. Whenever I try to use one from my camera role, settings says the picture should be there but the background is just black.

Did you try a reset ?

[SOLVED]urxvt can't set the background after using slim as DM

Yesterday, I changed lxdm to slim,and then everything went well,except urxvt.Though I think this should have nothing to do with the urxvt's problem.
urxvt only has a white background while my setting is 0000/0000/0000/cccc,even I attempted to comment all options relating to colors,but it doesn't work.until I remove the .Xresources file, urxvt has a black background.
I also attempted to start from startx and other ways, but it didn't work.I have a transparent black interface before,and now it is dazzling white.how could i can resume it.
My DE is kde4.

To add to what sonoran posted above, you need to have xrdb load the settings in your ~/.Xresources. When you use a DE, there are quite a few things that it might do for you depending on the existence (or absence) of a give configuration file.
I have no idea what things are specific to each DE, but I know that the Slim login manager is extremely simple and lightweight and does very little (if anything) automagically for you. A good example of automagic coming from some of the display manager part of things is the locale settings. In particular, they implement their own ways of handling setting your keyboard layout and language. So going if you were to go from GDM to Slim, you would suddenly have the stuff in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d honored, whereas in GDM, you would either have to use gconf or use setxkbmap at some point.

In Pages, how can I set a background for the whole document?

I tend to regard Pages as more of a page layout program than a simple word processor, so I use it for stuff containing graphics as well as text. Now I want to put a kind of frame around every page in the document, and I want this frame to be effectively a background for everything else, with it being my responsibility for the remainder of the material to stay in the frame. I can't see any feature that allows this apart from Headers and Footers, and as far as I can see, these are not supposed to occupy the whole page, just the top and bottom.
Can anyone give a good technique for configuring a background in this way?
TIA

This forum has helped me to partially answer my own question, in that I see now that I want to create a template with a section master that contains my graphic. But when I tried to do this, the menus for making a graphic (in my case a grouped item) part of a section master just didn't work. I am trying to follow the Help page "Using Master Objects (Repeated Background Images), but so far I can't get the menus to undim.
Can anyone help?

Can not set Conky background to be transparent in KDE

It is really weird, the same .conkyrc works normally in Gnome, but it does not in KDE, there is always a black background, any fix available? thanks for reply.

Here's a small script for a slideshow type functionality with feh (requires a .wallpaper directory in your home folder. You can change it to where ever you store your wallpaper images)
while true;
do
feh --bg-scale "$(find ~/.wallpaper -name *.jpg | shuf -n 1)"
sleep 15m
done &
If it doesn't work in .xinitrc, try putting it in the KDE autostart file. That may work better.
Additionally check this thread.

How can i set a background of JTextPane ?

I want to set background of JTextPane or JTextComponent with an image.
Help me with source or method to do .
Thanks

Couldn't you just extend JTextPane and overide its paintComponent() method.
paintComponent()
super();
//make an image of what you want and draw it in the component
}

How can I set my background so it repeats and the background is then square next to square?

Setting image background transparent

I want to know how can I set the background of an existing images to transparent. I am a web desginer and currently i want's to change background color of one of my site http://twxdroid.com but here the problem arises that some of my used images background won't match up site background, so someone plz tell me how to change existing image background transparent. I heard about using magic wand selection tool or quick selection tool to make transparent but still can't figure out how to use them.

• if the Layer is a Background Layer change it to a regular one by double-clicking it
• make a Selection with whatever Selection Tool is appropriate
• if you selected the background use Select > Inverse to invert the Selection
• Layer > Layer Mask > From Transparency
• if further corrections are needed paint on the Layer Mask – black to hide, white to show the Layer’s content
• save the layered file as psd, psb or tif
• File > Save for Web … to save a copy a format that fits your needs (png-24 for example)

Can I invoke a SubVI in an event? and how do I set the background color of a pipe to #0000ff?

When I click an image or a glass pipe(which belongs to Industry/Chesmitry category in palette), I want a SubVI to be invoked.
The purpose is to fetch an OPC-UA data from a web service and to write to it via the service.
We are building an HMI solution which displays an interactive water plant diagram.
When users click pipes and motors in the diagram, clicked devices should be turned on and off and change their animations or colors accordingly.
OPC-UA is for communication with devices.
I couldn't even set the background color of a pipe to "#0000ff", but setting it to "Red" or "Blue" was possible, and I don't know how to invoke SubVIs in event scripts.
The documentations in NI.com are confusing and lack depth.
Even silverlight references are confusing.
How do I do all of these?

Hi iCat,
Can you provide some more information about your current implementation so that we can help to answer your questions. Some questions I have for you are:
Are you creating this project in the NI LabVIEW Web UI Builder or in LabVIEW?
How are you publishing your webservice? Is this also in LabVIEW?
How is your webservice interacting with an OPC-UA server?
How is the certification set up with OPC-UA so that you can communicate between the server and the client?

Datagrid: Can I set a tranparency level for column background color?

Hi all,
I have a datagrid with background colors set using triggers. This works. I would like to set a column background color but I don't want to make the color solid because it will block the row color. Is there a way to set the column background color transparency
to 50% (or less) so that I can still see (or blend) with the row background color? I can set the "background" property of the column to a value of "transparent" but this makes no sense without a color.
Thanks
<DataGrid.RowStyle>
<Style TargetType="DataGridRow">
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding col_oPutorCall}" Value="call">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Cornsilk"/>
</DataTrigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding col_oPutorCall}" Value="put">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="BlanchedAlmond"/>
</DataTrigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding col_rowColor}" Value="false">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="LightGreen"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</DataGrid.RowStyle>
<DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding col_oBid, StringFormat=F2}" FontFamily="Arial" FontWeight="Bold" FontSize="12" Header="oB" >
<DataGridTextColumn.CellStyle>
<Style TargetType="DataGridCell">
<Setter Property="Background" Value= "Transparent" />
<Setter Property="Background" Value= "AliceBlue" />
</Style>
</DataGridTextColumn.CellStyle>
</DataGridTextColumn>

Background is a brush.
You can define a brush with an opacity in a resourcedictionary merged in app.xaml or in your window.resources ( etc ).
<Grid.Resources>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="TransparentIshBrush" Color="Red" Opacity=".3" />
</Grid.Resources>
I should think you can then do:
<DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding col_oBid, StringFormat=F2}" FontFamily="Arial" FontWeight="Bold" FontSize="12" Header="oB" >
<DataGridTextColumn.CellStyle>
<Style TargetType="DataGridCell">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource TransparentIshBrush}" />
</Style>
</DataGridTextColumn.CellStyle>
</DataGridTextColumn>
The problem with your former piece of code is that setting an opacity on a datagridcell gets everything in it. You would have to do
<Setter Property="(BackGround.Opacity)"
And I'm rather doubtful that would work anyhow.

Can I write a new email + set the background 2 anything apart from white?

This has been driving me mad all day (and last night!) and i am sure I am being really stupid!
I want to write a new email to a group and I want the background to be a different colour other that white - I can see how i can change the colour of the font but not the background of the actual email.
Please help as this is seriously doing my head in!!!
Thanks

Hi!
Ok, it took me some time to find it out, but here is how it works:
* Compose the message and make sure it's composed in Rich Text.
* Click the Fonts button in the toolbar
* Pick the 4th icon from the left (Document color)
Here comes the buggy part:
* Set the background color (it doesn't reflect in the message)
* Save the message as Draft and close it
* Re-open the message
--> colored background
Not the most intuitive solution…but it works.

How can I change the background of a running webpage on my own. Example Facebook I want to change its backround color from white to black just in my view not for all

How can I change the background of a running webpage on my own. Example Facebook I want to change its background color from white to black just in my view, not for all. Cause I really hate some site with white background because as I read for an hour it aches my eyes but not on those with darker background color.

You can use the NoSquint extension to set font sizes (text/page zoom) and text colors on web pages.
