Change colour around preview panel

Captivate v5.5
I know how to change the border colours of a slide via the skin editor but wonder if it is possible to change the colour of the preview panel border in which the slide is viewed (see below) ?
Noel

The border around the preview panel is also seen when I publish projects as .exe files.
I would prefer this border to be in my company's colour and that is why I wanted to change it.

Black and white PDFs printing in changing colours from preview

I am often printing black and white PDFs from preview with my HP PSC 1510 All in one printer and scanner. After updating to OS 10.6, my PDFs have been coming out in colour. They usually start in black, then change in the middle of a line of music or text to purple, red, blue and green. The longer the document, the more different colours I get. This is not occuring when printing black and white documents from NeoOffice, only when printing black and white PDFs from Preview. As this is what most of my printing consists of, this is extremely annoying.
I am high on black ink, as I recently changed catridge and I have also made certain that the printer driver knows this by using the printers and faxes preferance panel and selcting the" levels of material" button to update this, and it seems to understand that I am high on black and low on colour, but still the problem occurs with every PDF i print. (If this button is called something else, but similar, that is because I am using a norwegian system and don't actully know what it is called in the english OSX.)
There is no "print in black and white" button in the printer dialog either, so I can't fool the printer to print in black and white what it perceives as colour in my black and white PDFs either.

Be sure you have applied both the 10.6.2 update and the absolute latest drivers for HP from Apple:

Changing preview panel transparency background in Adobe Bridge CC

Can the background color showing transparency in the Adobe Bridge CC preview panel be changed from the default black to white?

Thank you GCRayaPC - I tried again after your positive response but realized I copied the wrong file into the Extensions folder. Doh!
Glad I wasn't more nasty when I posted (already red-faced).

Preview panel loses Color Management after Minimize Bridge CS5

Whenever I minimize the Bridge CS5 application window to the Windows taskbar, upon restoring or maximizing the Bridge application window the image(s) currently showing in the Preview panel no longer appear color managed (they look exactly as they would appear from a non-color-managed app.) In order to see them as color managed again, I have to either de/re-select their thumbnails or double click the Preview panel twice (once to minimize it, and once again to restore it.) Otherwise resizing the Preview panel has no impact on the color. The thumbnails in the Content panel are fine. This did NOT occur in CS4 or earlier versions of Bridge - otherwise the same environment.
I have a wide-gamut monitor, which causes many non-color-managed images to look super saturated, especially reds & greens, so it is probably much easier to notice this behavior in this environment than from a typical-gamut monitor.
Windows 7, x64, ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphics card, Bridge v4.0.3.9
Anyone else notice this annoyance?

Thanks Curt,
I doubt this is a video issue as no other versions of Bridge behave this way on this system. I have the same preference settings in Bridge CS5 as for Bridge CS4 - which works fine. Nor does Photoshop exhibit this behavior post-minimizing, & Photoshop behaves perfectly for all the OpenGL Drawing settings (which I have set to Advanced in PS.) Bridge just seems to poorly manage the Preview panel color post-minimizing the application window, but otherwise everything displays fine during operation. I'd be surprised if it was just me but if it is, it's an easy enough annoyance to work around. I'd imagine that this isn't too observable on a normal-gamut monitor.
I tried your suggestion of "use software rendering", just in case, but it made no difference. Appreciate the idea though...
One more observation:
While thumbnails are being generated for the first time on large images, they also have the non-color-managed appearance until they complete their generating, at which time they take the managed appearance - but I just consider that a processing-timing final step & it hasn't changed behavior from previous versions of Bridge.

Is there a way to format multiple images at once? Change colour mode or resolution?

Is there a way to format multiple images at once? Change colour mode or resolution?

It's very easy to make an action.
Go to window > actions
In the actions panel, simply click the 'create a new action' button, it starts recording as soon as you've created it (when you've given it a name).
Now you can apply the changes you want to make to the images on the file you have opened.
After you've done all you need to do. You click the 'stop' button. The action is now ready to use. And you can apply the changes you made on all the other files.
Then you can continue how gener7 explained.
I usually include a save and close command, so that the whole batch doesn't end up opened after running the script.
But if you do that you have to create a new file, and save it to your computer before you start recording the action, otherwise the save command will be replaced by each file. And you'll end up with one edited file in the end. At least for as far as I know!

Why do I see in the preview panel black edge on sides of imported jpegs into premiere CS5

We sized a jpeg in photoshop to 720 x 524 to import into premiere project frame size 720 x 480. Proportions all look good, but there is a black edge on each side of the jpeg in the preview panel. Will this show up when viewed on a tv screen once we create the dvd? On my preview tv screen, it looks like it will not show up, but I do not want to do this whole project that includes 50 jpegs and then have a problem? any good answers or things I should change.
Thank you

> I would have thought 540 myself to get a square pixel equivalent of 4:3 aspect ratio using 720 horizontal lines.
720x540 was the square-pixel equivalent before the correction that considers the difference between clean aperture and production aperture. In CS4 and later, it's 720x534.
There's a table of the square-pixel equivalents here. There are also presets in Photoshop that match this.

Hyperlinks don't change colour

I'm a real newbie with iweb, don't really understand the tech stuff. However, I made a site based on a template with some custom made texts which I made hyperlinks to the other pages. Thing is, when the mouse goes over them they don't change colour. When I made a previous experiment, on a diff template, they worked fine. The hyperlinks on the template change colour fine but not my custom ones.
Also, all the links work on the design page but when I preview in Safari, one doesn't!

Tod ~ Yes, you would have to upgrade to iWeb 2 in iLife '08. Then in Inspector's Link tab, you'll have a Format tab via which you can specify the colors of your hyperlinks. This video tutorial shows that Format tab, although its use is not demonstrated:

Bottom edge of border of lower third changes colour on render

Hi,
Adobe Pr Pro CS3 system
I am not at my machine so please forgive if I haven't got the exact terminology correct, but the essence of my query does not change.
I am doing some "lower thirds" (banners) in the titler for a DVD of a music concert. Basically I'm creating a rectanglar box filled with near-opacity black and adding text on top of this. The black rectanglar box has its left and right edges outside the screen area so are not relevant. However, I have added a coloured edge to the top of bottom of the "banner" (I think this is an outer stroke with size 3.0) The thing is, it looks fine on screen, but when the video is rendered, the lower edge of the box has changed colour. It was originally a yellow/gold (as the top still is) but the bottom is now a pinkier shade.
Any thoughts. I will try to add a screen cap shortly in case it helps.
Thanks in advance.
Daniel

The footage with lower third was rendered to a new AVI within Premiere and imported. The colour change then appears on whatever system is used to view it (even the new render on the timeline shows it), on screen, preview monitor, subsequent DVD burned from Encore, etc.
Thanks

AE 2014.2 crash when switching preview panel with Matrox

I newly bought a pc with Matrox M9138 card, and using it for professional use. All works fine, except for Adobe After Effects CC 2014.2: it simply crashes when switching between the Preview-panel and Render-Cue panel.
When I look in AE preferences under Video-preview > Mercury transmit doesn't even show that there is a Matrox-card. The only option there is Adobe DV. So, I guess AE doesn't find and even makes use of my Matrox card.
Technical info:
Windows Version: 8.1
Processor: Intel Core i7-4790 CPU, 3.6 GHz
RAM: 16GB
Type: 64bits
Matrox M9138 LP PCIex16
Driver version 2.4.3.2 (4.4.3.2) for Win 8-64bit
Adobe CC After effects 2014.2
After Efects error: "Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <816><ae.blitpipe><2> Making New Context"
First I installed the Matrox driver, and then Adobe CC, but After effects crashed when switching between preview-panel and render-cue-panel (No Matrox recognition in AE preferences > Mercury transmit)
Now I did it in other order:
- I removed Adobe CC (AE included) and all parts
- Did extra checkup removal with Adobe CC cleaner
- Removed the Matrox driver
- Restarted PC
- Reinstalled Adobe CC with AE
- Reinstalled Matrox Driver
- Restarted PC
- matrox fully installed and working perfectly (no errors in Display Adapters info).
But still, After effects crashed (Still no Matrox recognition in AE preferences > Mercury transmit)
I contacted Matrox technical support, and as I suspected, they say they haven't had this problem before and all works fine.
Typical...
Does someone has an idea what the problem would be?
Help or info would be very appreciated.

Solution:
My graphics card did not supported the "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (Open CL)". You can change it into "Mercury Playback Engine Software Only" in your Project Settings.
But this is in the wrong place in my opinion. Why not in "Edit/Preferences"? I could've changed it by myself but I did not find the menu.
Thanks Michaela from the Adobe Support Chat!

3d Text not changing colour in Photoshop CS6 Extended-Any Thoughts?

Hi,
I'm trying 3d text for the 1st time in Photoshop Cs6 Extended and thought I'd post my query on here as I've always found people to be really friendly and helpful.
The problem is every time I create new text and and change the colour it's always showing up as black. Nothing I do seems to alter this. Someone suggested a memory problem but I really don't know
Any solutions would be greatly appreciated

Did a complete reinstall and that seemed to allow me to change colours.Interestingly when I did the offered upgrade it reverted back to the way it was.Although I can't seem to see the widget(with grid) that allows me to easily move the text around.Is that in CS6? There is an example at 57 seconds here:

Lightroom changes colour in my RAW files captured with NIKON D300

Dear All! Lightroom changes colour in my RAW files captured with NIKON D300. Some of the images are completely ruined. I am sure Adobe must be aware of this problem. What could be done? Is there a solution? Many thanks for your help. Regards, Stanislav

You want "something different" but this "something different" is quite hard to define.
I want a result which reflects the result on the camera. Have the feeling the display
of the D800 is not the greatest, at least (not only the color issue which is often discussed)
but also the exposure. Often I think I would need to compensate it, but then afterwards
on the computer the non corrected version looks most of the time better.
I think its interesting to see how allergic people react when the word jpeg comes up.
This is also just a rendered result, just by the camera. There are many options in my cam.
I like the vivid setting with some modifications. And that gives me a result I like.
And if I like the result, why shall I spend way more time to replicate it?
I do not talk about that I would want the jpeg, I only say that what I get color wise out of the
box is how I would like to look at it. I still want the capability to fix for example exposure in image,
but I want the base the version I got from the jpeg view (or how the Nikon raw software could do).
On Lightroom I did not manage to have a profile that looked as appealing to me.
It also consumes way more time in my workflow to fix all pictures manually and results might differ.
To work on an image you need a starting point, I do not say the jpeg look is always perfect and
what I want all the time, but most of the time it is.
You say yourself you use profiles. So why should there not be a profile which automatically adjusts to the camera settings.
Its so frustrating to see a look which you like (the preview image when the pic is first accessed) and
then Lightroom switches to its own rendering which is flat and which I do not like.
For me its clearly something Adobe and/or Nikon should fix, like the mentioned "auto correct to preview look",
Nikon profiles/settings/raw-details in Lightroom or for example a Nikon import module.

Background colour around my website page in CSS

I want to set up a background colour around my website page. I can do this for each page individually in Page Properties but am looking for a way to do this through CSS so I can change all pages in the future. I thought I had succeeded by creating a new CSS property and applying it to the area to the side of my page, however, when I uploaded it, it was red instead of grey. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Add some css for the body tag in your stylesheet...
body {
background-color:#000000;
This would make the <body> of each page black.
If you have already tried this, we would need to see your code to figure out why it isn't working, specifically, what in your page css or stylesheet.css is overwriting it.
Could you post a link to one of your pages?

Menu text items to change colour

Hello.
I'm trying to use highlights on a dvd menu to get text to change colour between normal and selected mode.
When layer transparency is set to < 100% the colours are mixed. When transparency is set to 100%. the 'underlying' normal mode image can still be seen underneath
Furthermore, what Encore actually builds is different from what is displayed in the project preview.
Confused. Thanks for any help.

First, the Encore Preview is but a rough emulation, and a test RW DVD, or doing a DVD VIDEO_TS folder for viewing in a DVD software player, will always be the best way to see what you are actually getting.
Now, what I think you are describing is the inherent limitation of Sub-picture Highlights: they are always on top of all graphics in a Button on a Menu, and are limited to 2-bit (either ON, or OFF, with zero anti-aliasing) color, but can have Transparency (the opposite of Opacity in PS). Because of these limitations, the Sub-picture Highlights will be jagged, over all other elements and limited to one of three possible colors.
You might get a better result, if you employ parts of this ARTICLE.
Good luck, and hope that something in that article helps you.

Label Colour in Cocoa Panel (AI CS6 OS X)

Hello all,
Lets say I have a plug-in that displays a floating panel implemented by Cocoa. Naturally I have some labels, buttons and other UI elements on my panel but I noticed that the text colour for labels and buttons is a dark grey colour (or whatever I've set it to in the XIB) and stays the same colour when I change the UI colour in the preferences (which is what I'd expect). Does anyone know of a way to make my panel text colour behave in the same way as the built-in Illustrator panels? i.e. when the UI colour is changed from light to dark, the text changes colour to suit?
I've fiddled with my label's colour in the XIB (in case there was something special I had to set it to) and I've scoured the SDK for some easy way to do it but to no avail. The only way I can think to achieve it is to pick up the preferences changed notifier, get the new UI brightness value and change my own text colour accordingly but it seemed a bit hackish.
It's trivial I know but it's the little things!
Thanks!

Hello,
I think the AIUITheme.h suite is what you are looking for.
First, add a notifier
error = sAINotifier->AddNotifier(message->d.self, "MyPlugIn", kAIUIBrightnessChangedNotifier, &InterfaceBrightnessChanged);
and in the notify function
ASErr MyPlugIn::Notify( AINotifierMessage *message )
          {if(message->notifier==InterfaceBrightnessChanged)
                    {//Current UI background color.
                    error=sAIUITheme->GetUIThemeColor(kAIUIThemeSelectorPanel, kAIUIComponentColorBackground, UIBackgroundColor);
//Current UI text color.
                    error=sAIUITheme->GetUIThemeColor(kAIUIThemeSelectorPanel, kAIUIComponentColorText, UITextColor);
//Current UI text edit background color.
                    error=sAIUITheme->GetUIThemeColor(kAIUIThemeSelectorPanel, kAIUIComponentColorEditTextBackground, UITextEditBackgroundColor);
//Current UI text edit color.
                    error=sAIUITheme->GetUIThemeColor(kAIUIThemeSelectorPanel, kAIUIComponentColorEditText, UITextEditColor);
                    [MyLabelOutlet setTextColor:[NSColor colorWithCalibratedRed:UITextColor.red green:UITextColor.green blue:UITextColor.blue alpha:UITextColor.alpha]];
Now, when you change the interface brightness, the color of the lane MyLabelOutlet defined in the xib file will change with the brightness of the interface.
JLG.

*HELP* TXT wont change colour

I am needing help with dreamweaver, when i highlight part of
text to change it's colour it wont change.
I find i can only change it to one colour by changing it in
the HTML but i want to change via the properies panel and have txt
different colours etc.
I have turned off the CSS syles but it is still not working.
What is the setting on my page that wont let me change it
manually???
THANKS!

> I have turned off the CSS syles but it is still not

Well, color would be something you set with CSS. So, you'll
want to turn
that on.
It sounds like you might not be familiar with HTML and CSS.
It's going to be
a challenge using Dreamweaver if you don't understand the
basics of those,
unfortunately.
For specific help, give us a specific example of the kind of
text you want
to color and we can give you some code to use.
