Change color of paths

Is it possible to change the default color that the paths are shown in? I do not mean the actual stroke color but the color of the path tool path itself. I'm working on an image that has similar color to the path and that makes the path very hard to see.

Change the color of the layer. Double click the layer in the Layer Panel and change the color to a contrasting one.

  • Applescript to change color of path items with specific swatch from swatch group, multiple times

    I am attempting to take a path item that is on its own layer and change its color multiple times, saving it each time.
    I was able to do it with javascript however can't get it to work in applescript.
    Javascript:
    (Items are already selected that I intend to change.)
    var iL = app.activeDocument.pathItems.length;
    var colorSwatches = app.activeDocument.swatchGroups.getByName('newColors');
    var allColors = colorSwatches.getAllSwatches();
    var colorNames = Array();
    for (var i = 0; i < allColors.length; i++){
        colorNames.push(allColors[i].name);
    for (x = 0; x<colorNames.length; x++)
            var currentColor = allColors[x].name;
            for (i=0; i<iL; i++)
                var myItem = app.activeDocument.pathItems[i];
                if(myItem.selected)
                    myItem.fillColor = app.activeDocument.swatches.getByName(currentColor).color;
    (I then go on to save each one)
    When trying to cross over into applescript I have the following so far:
                   set iL to count every path item of document 1
                   set colorSwatches to swatchgroup "newColors" of current document
                   set allColors to get all swatches colorSwatches
                   set swatchCount to count every item in allColors
                   repeat with i from 1 to swatchCount
                        set currentSwatch to item i of allColors
                        repeat with x from 1 to iL
                            set myItem to path item i of document 1
                   here is where I have no idea what I am doing... I can't figure out how to test if an item is selected
                            if myItem's has selected artwork is equal to true then
                                set fill color of myItem to {swatch:currentSwatch}
                            end if
                        end repeat
                   end repeat
    Or better yet is there a way I can select every path item of a layer and change its color that way?
    Something like the following:
              set fill color of every path item of layer "art" of document 1 to {swatch:currentSwatch}
    Thanks for any input!

    I'm throwing it into a Applescript OBJc project I am working with. I currently have it in a javascript file within the actual project however this is the slowest part of my project and I'm going to attempt to speed it up some.
    Let's say I'm changing the color of a path item 35 times... this starts to eat a ton of time up.
    My applescript save illustrator file as jpeg is much faster than the javascript one for some reason...
    It's also something I have needed to do numerous times in the past and never got around to asking.

  • Can I change color of all objects at ones ?

    Hello guys
    I understand that's very fundamental question, and I promise I search the forum prior to posting, but perhaps it's my bad english and wrong phrasing, that leads to poor results. So if that has been discuss, please kindly don't waste your time, just link me to the post and I will read away.
    I have very complex file, with hundreds of paths, shapes, text, outlined text,  etc... It's a brochure with graphs, scematich drawings and text.
    Last moment, the client like the reverse the colors from (current) Black on white, to all White on dark gray background.
    Problem is, I can't seem to find easy way to just change the colors, without selecting one by one, every single object. When I selest all and choose white, it start filling paths with solid fill... Editing it wastes allot of my time and I have many pages to do.
    Is there any way to simple change color of everything at once, just from black to white ? Or do I have to go object by object manually ?
    Thank you very much, for all the help so far, and I'm sincerly sorry to waste your time if that has been covered previously.
    Good day
    ciao ciao
    Monika

    Thank you both for such prompt follow up. I know it's just typing and it's easy but I sincerly mean it. Thank you.
    The INVERT work on some images.
    The "SAME" seem to work funny way. When I select STROKE COLOR, it does nothing, but when I select WIGHT then it does and in fact I'm able to change lots of strokes at once with ease. Even tho I'm left with few small bits here and there which I need to change manually, it is certainly far better than doing one by one.
    Thanks a lot for the help, it's what I was looking for.
    By the way   I not once used the SAME menu. Feel so lame, given I use AI (not daily but often) for few years now... Shame.
    Thank you and you guys have a great day
    xoxo

  • Changing colors of shadow/highlight

    How can I achieve this effect? I assume it has to do with the shadows and highlights...anyone have any tutorials on how to do this?

    Highlights and Shadows are not the right tool for this it is better done with curves or levels as far as the two colors in AI this is easy just a color filled rectangle path for the background and the grayscale on top and select the grayscale image then a color, don't like that color then change the color and then again and again.
    Not so simple in Photoshop so in this case they might want to do this in AI then bring the AI file as a smart object into Photoshop  that way all the user has to do is click on the smart object change the color in AI save and back to Photoshop with the update.
    So here they have the best of both. But keep in I would in this case the grayscale colored file without the background color filled path which I would do on a separate layer in Photoshop so the colors can be control separately for the back ground and colored image.

  • How do I stop iCal from changing the server path of CalDAV accounts?

    I'm using Davical as a calendar server for our family. Some may wonder why I use Davical and not iCloud. I do for one reason...there is no way to disable getting other users' alarms on the iPhone. I want to be able to view my wife's calendar but not get her alarms and have her be able to view my calendar and not get my alarms.
    So, now onto the issue with server path setting changing in iCal. We each have our own calendar set up within our own accounts on our Davical server. We each have read access to the other's calendar. Within iCal account settings I have her account set up on my Mac with my username/password (jason/****) and, under server settings, the server path points to her calendar /caldav.php/juiper/). After a few days, sometimes just a few hours, suddenly I will have duplicate events throughout my calandar in iCal. Going to preferences I will see that the server path for her calendar will have been changed to the location of my calendar (/caldav.php/jason/). I'll correct the server path, restart iCal and then the calander will be correct for a while unitl the server path is automatically and incorrectly changed again and I must manually correct it again.
    Thanks!

    My coworkers and I use DavMail to share access to a shared Exchange calendar, authenticating with our own ADS credentials. We also see the behavior where iCal will reset the CalDav calendar path to the username (our own) that is authenticating to the CalDav service. In Lion this wasn't a deal breaker for us. While very annoying, the work around was simple. Update the path via preferences, and restart iCal. However in Mountain Lion, the issue has become a lot more difficult to fix. It's no longer a matter of updating the path via preferences and restarting.
    In Mountain Lion the solution to change the CalDav path back to the original path requires you to edit the file ~/Library/Calendars/<somehash>.caldav/Info.plist
    Contained within this file is a value "CalendarHomePath", simply update the string to your desired path, clear out the 'Calendar Cache' file for good measure, then restart iCal.

  • Images Change Colors between monitors while the UI stays the same

    Hey! Im having an issue where photoshop changes the colors when I move the window between my monitors, seen here: http://sta.sh/04y5s60vf3j This isnt due to the monitors themselves being different, it actually changes after a few seconds of moving it inbetween the monitors. The left one has been callibrated with a spyder 3 elite which I no longer have access to. I applied the file with windows color management instead of the spyder utility. The second one is new, and it is not callibrated by anything, but instead was done by hand with the built in brightness/contrast/custom RGB settings. Both of them are very close to eachother, enough so for my tastes. but when photoshop changes what the image looks like, it's causing problems. Interestingly enough, when I disable callibration for the monitor on the left, the image does not change colors between monitors, but instead always appears as it does on the right. but then they don't match up and the whole screen looked washed out because it's uncallibrated, so that doesnt do me any good. Another interesting thing to point out, is when this image is saved as a .JPG, and viewed with firefox the image appears exactly like the monitor on the LEFT (which is my main monitor) despite the left monitor being the one that is force changed. does anyone have any suggestions? It also appears that windows photoviewer is behaving the same way, though firefox does not. Meaning when I open an image in all 3 on the left monitor, they look the same, but when opened on the right monitor, windows photo viewer and photoshop both display the image as brighter and redder than firefox does. This is frustrating, because it seems photoshop is changing the image with my callibration on my left monitor to match what it looks like on the web, which it does. but it doesn't do this for the right monitor, or when the left is uncallibrated. Another issue I can see with this is even if the UI is the same shade of gray, the images are different between the monitors because of this change. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Alright! So I reread through all this, poked at some things on the internet, and I'm going to attempt to summarize what would be a good solution for all this (And it seems, it still won't be perfect, but to get myself into the best environment I can for not messing with images for an hour trying to make them look nice before I post them to the web. I painted something yesterday on the cintiq, popped it over to my laptop screen and it just looked washed out and terrible.)
    1. Get a X-rite EODIS3 i1 Display Pro, Callibrate laptop and cintiq. I do have the money to drop on something like this, especially if it's a time saver.
         Things I'm not sure about:
              a. There was a ton of complaints about the software not working when I checked reviews, but also a ton that said everything was great. most of them were mac users though.
              b. I'm not sure if problems would still be posed, even while calibrated, by me having a wide gamut monitor.
              c. I'm a terrible excuse for a human being and I think the colors showing up brighter on the wide gamut screen is pretty (I should just make my images this bright on a normal screen and there won't be any issues. >.>)
    2. Set Firefox to color manage (easy enough)
    3. Change my photoshop working space to sRGB (since they'll have been calibrated at this point)
    3. Accept the fact that most of the people who look at my work will be doing so on a monitor that is almost certainly uncalibrated, and I can't control what they will see on my screen, but I CAN control if the colors are -actually- what I want them to be on any properly calibrated device. which is probably the best way to go anyways.
    4. Make paintings, have fun.
    Now, you two have been going on about all sorts of interesting things in here, and it seems that calibration issue run much much deeper than I ever thought. Do either of you have recommendations for how I should tweak this list of things to do or other things I can/ should do? I'm not currently a working professional, but if I have anything to say about it, I will be within a few years (I'm going to school for illustration and studying concept design on my own time) so it'd be useful for me to get into good habits now.

  • Can anyone tell me why a picture would change color when I try to download/upload it?  It is the exact same picture- chosen the same way and when it goes to any other program it changes the color (I've tried canvas on demand and mpixpro.  I've also tried

    Can anyone tell me why this picture changes color when I try to download/upload it?  It is the exact same picture I have taken from the same location.  The image on the left is via preview and the image on the right is what is shows like when I try to download it.  I have emailed it to myself and it shows fine on the computer and in CS4, but when I look at the download via my phone or on another computer it shows the wonky color on the right.  I have checked the color space shows RGB/8 bit.  Any ideas why or how to fix it?  It isn't with any one specific session.... and I've tried it on both my desktop and my laptop- saved image to an external hard drive and to drop box.  I've tried sending the image to canvas on demand, my email, mpxipro, POST editing- all the same result.  Please HELP!!  What am I doing wrong?

    Most of the time you see something like that. The image in question has a color profile other then sRGB. Some image viewers/displayers are color managed and others are not.  So the image do not look the same in all of the applications you use. So colors seem to change.
    Try converting it to sRGB color and see if then looks the same all around. Also I think PC and Mac displays are set to different gamma something like 1.8 and 2.2
    Though I'm colorblind I even see color variations.

  • How to change color of selected label from list of labels?

    My Problem is that I have a list of labels. RowHeaderRenderer is a row header renderer for Jtable which is rendering list items and (labels).getListTableHeader() is a method to get the list. When we click on the label this code is executed:
    getListTableHeader().addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter()
    public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e)
    if (e.getClickCount() >= 1)
    int index = getListTableHeader().locationToIndex(e.getPoint());

    AcknowledgeEvent ackEvent = new AcknowledgeEvent(
    this, (ae_AlertEventInfo)theAlerts.values().toArray()[index]);
    fireAcknowledgeEvent(ackEvent);
    ((HeaderListModel)listModel).setElementAt(ACK, index);
    catch(Exception ex) {;}
    Upon mouse click color of the label should be changed. For some period of time ie. Upto completion of fireAcknowledgeEvent(ackEvent);
    This statement is calling this method:
    public void handleAcknowledgeEvent(final AcknowledgeEvent event)

    I tried but when i am clicking a particular label, the color of all labels in the List is being changed. So can you please assist me in changing color of only the label that is selected and the color must disappear after completion of Upto completion of fireAcknowledgeEvent(ackEvent);

    im a bit confused with the post so hopefully this will help you, if not then let me know.
    I think the problem is that in your renderer your saying
    setBackground(header.getBackground());which is setting the backgound of the renderer rather than the selected item, please see an example below, I created a very simple program where it adds JLabels to a list and the renderer changes the colour of the selected item, please note the isSelected boolean.
    Object "value" is the currentObject its rendering, obviously you may need to test if its a JLabel before casting it but for this example I kept it simple.
    populating the list
    public void populateList(){
            DefaultListModel model = new DefaultListModel();
            for (int i=0;i<10;i++){
                JLabel newLabel = new JLabel(String.valueOf(i));
                newLabel.setOpaque(true);
                model.addElement(newLabel);           
            this.jListExample.setModel(model);
            this.jListExample.setCellRenderer(new RowHeaderRenderer());
        }the renderer
    class RowHeaderRenderer extends JLabel implements ListCellRenderer
        JTable theTable = null;
        public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList list, Object value,
                                                      int index, boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus){

  • Changing color without modifying existing items.. problem!

    Hello,
    I'm reletively new to flash, and am trying to modify a template and am running into a problem and I don't seem to know why Flash is acting so strange.
    I am going into a movie clip to edit the color of an item, and when I do so with a tint, it overrides any additional effects such as light, and text. The color appears almost as if it were just slapped on top of everything.
    When I edit the color in advanced mode, it is really a hit-or-miss to get the correct color, and will only modify when changing the offset RGB.
    And also when doing this, the text gradually changes color, for example: there are 4 items in total that I want to edit the color of. Each item is a different colored box with text on the front (for a main Navigation of the website). --- The first item, the text will stay white. Gradually through the second and third items it starts to change, and by the fourth / last item, the text is completely blue.
    Is it possible for a portion of text to be connected somehow to an object within the animation in a movieclip? If so, is it possible to go inside and edit this? -the shape, animation, and text?
    Is there an easier way to change the color of an item inside a movie clip? I can supply additional information if needed.. files etc.
    Am I doing something wrong / completely missing something?
    Thank you very much in advance for any help and/or advice!
    New Flasher,
    Lisa

    go one level deeper than the movieclip so you're editing the shape.

  • My macbook pro is freezing after my screen changes color

    My screen has been freezing a lot for some reason. I will be working on anything on the computer then all of a sudden the screen will become distorted and start to change colors then do a hard freeze. I have to hold down the power button and do a hard reset. Any suggestions on what this could be?

  • How can I change the folder path to my library

    I just changed the file path to my locally stored music from C:\MyStuff\...\iPod Nano Music\... to C:\OneDrive\...\iPod Nano Music\...
    Is there a way I can edit the path that Apple has locally stored to redirect iTunes to the new, correct location instead of (as I've had to do previously) deleting all the music files in iTunes and then adding each music folder back?
    In Advanced Preferences the 'iTunes media folder location' shows as C:\Users\Mark\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media with an edit button. However this is not the location of all my music files (as indicated above).

    If you want to move your media to a new path what you should do is edit the media folder preference in iTunes and then consolidate to that new path. Moving the media first by hand and then trying to fix iTunes is generally the wrong approach.
    Your options are to move everything back where it came from, then consolidate to the new path, then delete the originals that iTunes leaves behind. Alternatively you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect the relocated media to iTunes. See this post for an explanation of how it works.
    See also Make a split library portable for reasons why splitting the media folder to a new path may be undesirable.

  • How to create a radio button that changes colors

    I'm using Acrobat X and ID CS5 on Mac OS X.
    A couple of years ago someone on the forums explained to me how to create a button that changes color with each click. You can view a sample PDF at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52882455/colorcycle.pdf. They gave me the document JS and showed me how to set the properties of the button. I've integrated the button into a particular series of PDF forms and it's worked out very well.
    Now I would like to do the same thing, but using a circle instead of a square. Can anyone tell me the best way to do this? Can I somehow set a radio button to cycle through colors in the same way? I design my forms initially in ID CS5 and then activate and format the fields in Acrobat X. I've tried using circles instead of squares in my ID document, but when I export to an interactive PDF, they're converted to squares.
    Any ideas?

    I understand how to make buttons cycle through colors-- the problem I'm having is that I'm trying to figure out how to make a circular button cycle through colors. When I export my ID document to PDF, my round button maintains it's original appearance, but when I click on it to cycle through the colors, it behaves like a square (see new PDF at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52882455/colorcycle2.pdf).
    If I use a radio button, I can get it to cycle through colors, but I don't want it to have a black dot in the middle. Is there a way to format the radio button to not show the black dot when clicked?
