Cant change color on visited sites without changing background /foreground colors that hide options on the sitec

I want to change the color of visited sites, but am forced to set background and foreground colors which don't properly
show all of the colors for controls etc on many websites.
I have to uncheck the button to Allow pages to choose their own colors....
Google is a good example after doing a search, then change visited sites color, uncheck the allow pages button and then you can't see the search button and most of the options in the top right corner in google.
I am a little color blind, so can't differentiate blue and purple for links on visited sites...
thx

I think the problem is that many sites use background colors to create buttons, so you lose that when you override the page's colors.
Maybe you could use an add-on to fine-tune colors instead of Firefox's all-or-nothing setting. I found a couple extensions that say they can change page colors, but I haven't tried them myself:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/color-that-site/ Color That Site!]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/colorific-1/ Colorific]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/toggledocumentcolors-198916/ ToggleDocumentColors_]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/color-toggle/ Color toggle]
For a truly custom approach to link colors, there are two general purpose ways to apply your own style rules to specific sites: the Stylish extension and a userContent.css files. You would need to set a preferred text ''and'' background color for visited and unvisited links so that you are guaranteed to be able to read the text.
Hope one of these fits the bill!

  • How do I change color on visited sites without causing websites to not view properly?

    I go to Content/Colors, change color of visited sites, uncheck "allow pages to choose own colors instead of my selections above".
    The visited sites change colors, but the websites that I go to do not view properly. They do not have names or headings or shopping carts or search boxes and are very hard to maneuver through.

    You can use code in userContent.css or use the Stylish extension to override the page colors.
    I use code like this:
    <pre><nowiki>a:visited {color:#e08!important;background-color:#eee}
    a:visited * {color:#e08!important;outline:1px dotted red!important;outline-offset:-1px}
    a:visited img {background-color:transparent}
    </nowiki></pre>

  • Change color after visiting site google

    When I visit a site in a google search and return to the search list the heading changes from blue to purple.  Is there anyway change to a different color? It is very difficult to distinguish between the 2 colors.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How can I change the color in a search window for visited sites? I'm partially color blind and the default colors are very difficult to tell from one another.

    When I'm looking at a search engine results page, I would like the colors of visited results to be a color that is much more different than they are now. Like blue v.s. black or blue v.s. yellow.

    You can use the NoSquint extension to set font size (text/page zoom) and text color on web pages, including the visit color.

  • Can you change the color of an image without changing it in photoshop first?

    I have created a link for Indesign using Photoshop. It is basically a plain black graphic that is placed over an aerial to highlight the represented water. It is possible to change the color of this graphic without actually going back into photoshop?

    Another option is to make a path around the image, so that you have a vector shape with full control over fill and transparency.
    You can do the path in Ps, save as clipping path, bring into InD, position, convert clipping path to frame, select and delete content, fill, fade...
    It may be easier to do the path in InD, but perhaps accurate positioning over the area you're after would be an issue.

  • How to change color of iCal event, without changing the calendar.

    I have my work Exchange calendar imported to iCal.  When I want to change the color of an event in iCal, it actually changes the event to a differnet 'calendar' and therefore no longer shows up on my work calendar.  This wouldn't be a problem, excpet my secretary can no longer see the event on my work calendar that shows up on her PC.  So how can I change the color of 1 event, say to 'Important' or 'Must Attend', without changing the calendar?

    Welcome to the discussions, spet.
    Right click (Control-click) the calendar you want to change in the left pane and select Get Info. There is a colour selection button to the right of the calendar name..

  • How to change field labels in CRM without changing original data structure

    Hello, I wish I could change the label of the input-type fields that are visibile in the CRM Account search page.
    The only way I have found so far is: go to the structure CRMT_BSP_SEAREQ_ACCOUNT
    and change the short description of the component.
    This is, anyway, very invasive, as I have to modify a SAP structure and I am asked an activation key.
    I have gone through the PCUI but cannot find a way to change the labels, anybody has a hint?
    At least, I would like to give the labels the same length so that the page is better organized, now all columns have different widths...

    Sorry, I had not seen this previous answer

  • I can't change the color of this vectorimage without changing the vectorimage

    Hello,
    I have a strange problem. I designed this logo but it is impossible to change the color http://www.acmeurope.com/logocolor.ai . The strokes change then completely. And when undoing, the original form is lost.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Best regards,
    Dirk

    Hi Dirk--no idea either. Deleting the copy below the artboard didn't do it for me. Strange. But I wouldn't have built it this way either, not understanding how it was built in the first place.
    I redrew it with round butt caps on another layer. It is stable.
    Take care, Mike

  • Flash CS4 - Can I change the colors of the background or text that shows up in the Layers section?

    I am stuggling here!  I am colorblind.  I need to change either the color of the background or the color of the text on the layers section on the Timeline.  I simply cannot read/see what is currently showing.  It is a very light blue background with white text and white dots for seeing, locking, or setting the outline color.  I need to either change the text color and dots to black so I can see them, or try to change the background color to a dark blue so I can read the white text.  Changing the text color would really be my preference.  How do I do this?   Please help.  Adobe hasn't been very concerned about colorblindness when developing these products.  I can barely make out all the light grey/grey/dark grey/grey stuff.  Now this! 

    For Windows you can adjust your Theme (or download a new one and use that). This will alter the color of each layer, for example if you use Classic then it will use a very dark blue for layers that will provide higher contrast. I've downloaded other custom themes in the past that use a very dark grey for example.
    (By the way, for Mac users go to Appearance in System Prefs and choose a different Highlight color - you can choose a default or custom one. That color is used for the layer color).

  • How do i change font size for iMac without change the screen resolution?

If I change the resolution (1920 x1080)  the font size increased, but the definition o apparence is to low. I wants to keep the higthes resolution and obtain larger font.
    Thank you.
    Tengo un computador iMac de 27 pulgadas que además tiene una resolución de pantalla de 2560 x 1140, por lo tanto el tamaño de font o letra en la barra de menús de cualquier ventana o aplicación se ve muy pequeña. Si se cambia la resolución a una inferior el tamaño aumenta; pero se ve borroso. Quisiera mantener la máxima resolución y tener un tamaño de font mayor.

    You can't really change it overall, but you for some Apps, like Safari>Preferences>Appearance, Mail>Preferences>Fonts & Colors.

  • How to change newly registered user name, without changing entire apple id, in iCloud?

    Recently created new user name.  Need to change it.  I do not want to change my entire apple id account information.  The only information I can find in communities, has to do with the previous Mobile Me stuff and not the new iCloud stuff.  Again, I don't want to change my long standing account id with Apple.  There must be some sane way to do this!  I've been searching now, for over 2 hours.  Help! 

    Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How do I change DPI in Photoshop CC without changing the pixel dimension of the file?

    I used to be able to do this in Photoshop CS6 by simply clicking the check boxes in the "image size" dialog box:
    scale styles
    constrain proportions
    resample image
    (all boxes UNCHECKED)
    Then input the dpi (usually converting a 300dpi print file to 72dpi for web). And the pixel dimension will stay the same.
    In CC the only option I see is "scale styles" which does not apply to the pixel dimension of the file.
    Please help. I would hate to have to do this function in CS6 all the time.
    CS6:
    CC:

    Just uncheck the [ ] Resample checkbox, then change your Resolution.
    Change the units from Percent to Pixels if you want to see pixel dimensions.
    Once you've successfully run it through (after OK), note that it will remember your units settings the next time you use it.
