Change color of font in part of email message

I can't figure out how to change the font color of just a certain part of my email.  This should seem easy and it looks like you only highlight the text and click on colors.  But that doesn't work.  When I clicked on help it said go to preferences.  This only changes the color of the font of specific text like quoted text.  I want to just change the font color of a certain sentance or a few words.  Surely you have to be able to do this right?
Thanks,
Frustrated PC to Mac user.

It sounds like you doing it correctly. I just created a test message, selected a couple of words and then clicked Format - Color and chose my color. The only text that changed color was what was selected. If that doesn't do it for you then I'd recommend using your AppleCare telephone support, you have 90 days of free support so take advantage of it!

  • Is there a way to change font size in incoming email messages?

    In the Mail preferences I see options for changing fonts and sizes for composing email, but is there a way to control incoming font sizes?
    Some emails for some reason show up in very tiny fonts when they come into my Mail program
    thanks

    Hello Nick,
    Thank you for the question.  You can update the font settings in the Preferences for Mail.  By going to Mail>Preferences>Fonts & Colors, you can update the Message list font and the Message font for easier viewing.  The Messages font will only change to the font you select if the sender does not have specific formatting for the text in their email:
    Option
    Description
    Message list font
    The font and font size for viewing the list of messages (in classic layout only). Click Select to use a different font.
    Message font
    The font and font size for writing and viewing messages. Click Select to use a different font.
    If the sender used a specific font for a message, that font is used when viewing the message.

  • Change color and font in two button dialog box

    The two button dialog is boring.

    DIALOGBOX.vi ‏16 KB

    Hi trout00;
    I think it will be better if you create your own dialog window. Create a vi with all the features you want the dialog window to perform. Edit the connectors of the vi so they return what you want to retrieve (Right-click the upper right icon in the fron panel of the vi and select "Show Connectors"). Then, edit the configuration of your vi so it behave like a dialog box (Right-click the upper right icon again and select "VI Setup..."). Finally, add your vi to your main application vi.

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 -How do change color of font?

    At me all color of font is red when trying to select: Comments->Comment&Markup Tools->Text Box Tool. and all color of font was red.

    I had the same question.  I spent a lot of time until I found the way.  Unfortunately, the help function of the program is not that good.  In fact, it is confusing.
    Anyhow follow these steps.
    1.  Pick the text box function.
    2.  Place the cursor where you want and write.
    3.  Go to the "View" dropdown menu.
    4.  Select "Toolsbars" in the dropdown menu.
    5.  Select the "Property Bar"
    6.  You will see the toolbar for changing the color and sizes of linew and font.
    7.  Select the text box you want to change.
    8.  Double click to select the text inside the text box.
    9.  Use the toolbar function to change the color, font and size.
    The problem with the help documentation is that when they talk about "text"  they are refering to the original text of the document and all the solutions that I found did not work because of this.

  • Font size when printing email messages

    Having chosen a larger font for viewing email messages, is there a way to avoid printing email messages in the larger font, but rather print in the default font?

    HI RRW21,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.   I understand that when trying to print an email from your iPad to your Deskjet 3512 that the email prints with a large-sized font.
    The size of the font is controlled by the email program and its font settings.  Apple’s AirPrint feature and HP’s ePrint app don’t have the ability to modify the font.  To modify the font please ask the email sender to modify it in any future emails or forward the email to yourself and modify the font before pressing Send.  I have included Apple’s About AirPrint and the HP ePrint Mobile App FAQ documents for your reference.

  • How to change color of font in JTextArea without changing existing text ?

    Is there some way to keep the existing text in one color / size and change the color / size
    of the yet "unwritten" part of text ?
    Edited by: pimpcane on Dec 11, 2007 9:53 AM

    The very first paragraph of the API documentation says
    "A JTextArea is a multi-line area that displays plain text. It is intended to be a lightweight component that provides source compatibility with the java.awt.TextArea class where it can reasonably do so. You can find information and examples of using all the text components in Using Text Components, a section in The Java Tutorial."
    In other words, if it isn't obvious from that, no. The actual link to the tutorial doesn't show up here but if you go to the API documentation you'll find it there.

  • How to do change color and font

    Site

    Best to do so in the source document if it is available. If not, in Acrobat Pro XI for PC you can use the Edit Text and Images tool. The font and color appear in the Tools pane under Format. I seem to recall this worked differently in version X.
    Hope this helps.

  • Change color effect only of part of an image, such as only the left side?

    I have an image that is basically a bunch of blue dots.  On a keyframe, I want to change the left side of the image to red dots.  How can I do this?

    Here's another way:
    Apply the effect to an adjustment layer, and create a mask on the adjustment layer to define the area that the effect should affect.
    Since you're new to After Effects, I strongly recommend that you begin here and work your way through the basic learning resources first.

  • Rule name as part of email message

    Hi,

    You can look at the rwservlet.properties file in the $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf directory on your application server. The entry will look something like:
    SERVER=rep_mysrv
    You can look in your tnsnames.ora file in the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin folder on your application server. The entry will look something like:
    REP_MYSRV.DOMAIN.COM = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = mysrv)(PORT = 1950))
    where REP_MYSRV is the name or your reports server.
    You can also look in Enterprise Manager - App Server Control:
    http://mysrv.domain.com:1810
    You have to login. Once logged in, you should see the name of your reports server.

  • Changing color scheme on Transitions and Themes

    I would like to use the Newscast theme to create an iMovie; however, I CANNOT use the red color scheme for my audience.  How do I change the color scheme for the transitions?
    thanks in advance for any advise!

    …  How do I change the color scheme for the transitions?
    short answer: you can't.
    long answer: most animations and 'moving' elements within iM are realized with a technology called QUARTZ. those animations are 'hardwired' in iM. You'd need a Developer-tool, tons of expertise and have to ignore the EULA you signed on installation/usage of iMovie, changing these parts of iLife.
    I tried to change colors and fonts in some preset Titles - technically possible, but not within 'normal' usage
    Make a enhancement suggestion, allowing iM to use plug-ins, add-ons, 'Jam Packs' in future versions of iMovie:

  • How do I change the "From" name connected to my email in iCloud email?

    How do I change the "From" name connected to my email messages in iCloud?

    Hi,
    Both modems are on a same network or 2 different networks ? If on TWO networks, the printer can see 2 networks and on the setup menu you have to select the new network, enter security code (if any) then pick it as default.
    Now your machines on the same network might see 2 logical printers, one offline and one online, the online is the one connected to the new modem.

  • Nokia N86 Email Messaging Full of Bugs When Next U...

    I just bought a New Nokia N86 and I am very sad for this phone!
    I use a lot the mails, both for office (exhange) than private (gmail)
    I noticed the following bugs:
    1) No HTML option only after I can read in HTML but it keep a lot of time to download also a little immage
    2) No possibility to write in html, i cannot include picture inside a message, i cannot change colors or fonts or bolds or insert any emoticons
    3) The memory of the phone is full (out of memory) after one days, because that stupid program download the messages in "C" (not E not memory card) but never cancell from memory, also i said to update for 3 days. so i think I have to rester the phone every day!
    4) The phone is slow, very slow, very very slow, also it freeze when I open the gmail with nokia messaging of the mobile phone
    But the nokia tester after you do a new release try to instal all programs on the phone a some other new and some mail account?
    Your tester try to read and write mails?
    The N86 of your testers crash after 2 days or is perfect?
    If is perfect that's mean you use a different phone from the one sold in shops. Or your tester sleep all day instead to test the phone!
    I'm so stupid to buy NOkia phones! (I bought my 10th nokia phone and every year the phones become slower and full of bugs.
    instead to improve the programs (like e-mail) the program are more and more slower and useless
    I think that all Nokia managers use a Blackberry for office mails, and iPhone for private e-mails and music and video

    After doing exactly the same settings suddenly the stupid thing works! Only difference was that I didn't accept the certificate and exited out of mail before the dumb thing tried to connect without having the full and correct settings in place. This really isn't easy to use! It is really very poor to have an email setup that trashes the username and password settings and switches on security when a user has expressely selected 'none' so it *will never work* when a user tries to connect for the first time.
    I also think that depending on exactly how you start the email settings wizard will depend exactly on what result you get. I didn't use the 'add mailbox' icon in the previous times - I used the menu  option. I'd recommend setting up via that icon rather than the menu as it seems to be a tiny bit better at making sure the settings can actually work.
    But the wretched thing still doesn't seem to be able to send mail however!

  • Edits to To Dos associated with email messages don't persist

    Here are the steps to replicate this problem within Apple Mail (the latest version - 4.3 on OS X 10.6.4):
    1) Select some text in an email message, and click the to do button in the toolbar to turn it into a to do. This to do now appears in the list of to dos visible when you click 'To Do' under 'Reminders' in Mail's left hand sidebar.
    2) Return to the email message, and edit the to do visible at its top. The to do text has changed when you view it via the email message, but if you again look at the list of to dos via Mail's left hand sidebar it has not - only the original to do text is visible. And if you then return to the email message, the do has returned to its original text.
    Any help/pointers for investigation much appreciated

    Sorry no help just noting that I have excately the same problem. However I am still on Leopard with Mail V3.6. I suspect one of the recent "security" updates screwed the way how Todo notes are shared with Mail and Ical...
    I can also edit the Todo message with Ical and the changed text appears instantly in Mail. Just editing within a mail-message with the little yellow box above is not working. However I can change priority and due-dates but not the text....
    weird stuff.... anyone has an idea? Thanks. Emilia

  • Can hardly read tiny font on my Juno email page and can't find how to change font size or color, which is light blue.

    That's it in a nutshell. I never had this problem with IE, but when I changed to Firefox suddenly there's all my emails listed in tiny blue font. Can't find anything on the Address Bar to change it.
    When I open the emails, they're fine--but the page listing them is awful. And light blue font on white background makes reading it more painful on the eyes.

    My wife had the same problem. Click on the tools icon in your web browser and go to the "zoom" feature. You can adjust the font size there.
