Change 'Elegant Brochure' background colour

Hi there,
Making a brochure for our wedding (using the option under brochure of 'Elegant Brochure') to go along with the invites. Is there any way we can change the brown background colour to match our wedding's black, red and white theme colour while keeping the pattern in the original colour scheme? Basically just want to change the brown background to a light red.
Thanks for your help.

Click on the panel. Note the little Xs? That means it’s locked. In the Arrange menu choose unlock. Because the panel is a JPEG instead of a shape, bring up the Adjust Image pane and use the various sliders to produce the color you want. It might be a good idea to Lock them again after you change the color.

Change the desktop background colour of Acrobat 9 Professional?

Is it possible to change the desktop background colour in Acrobat 9? The reason I ask is we are supplied newspaper ads and sometimes they have a black keyline on the border of the PDF.
The dark background on the desktop can make it difficult to see a fine keyline. We were previously using Acrobat 7 Professional which had a white background.

Doesn't work
^ ^
Obviously, I can't, in this particular screenshot show everything.
This is what the fellow is talking about. Naturally if his keyline item is in Black it ain't going to show up In Acrobat previous to 9 all this back Ground was grey.

How do you change the slide background colour in the keynote app?

How do you change the slide background colour in the keynote app?

You can't (not in Keynote for iOS). The background color is a function of the template selected when you create the file initially and cannot be altered. the only workaround I know of is to add a graphic file to the slide and position it behind all other content, but this would need to be repeated on any slide you wish to "recolor".

A problem changing applet's background colour

Hi there,
I'm hoping somebody can help me with what I believe to be a problem I have in changing the background colour of an applet, the source code of which is posted below. If super.paint(g); is commented out, the background of the applet will be changed to whatever colour is specified, however if it is not the background will remain grey. As I understand though, super.paint(g); should be part of the program. What am I doing wrong? Should super.paint(g); in this example be part of the program?
Before posting this I searched the forums and looked at some of the Q's & A's about changing an applet's background colour but am non the wiser.
Thank you for your help.

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Graphics;
public class Calculate extends JApplet
public Calculate()
//Variables used in our calculations.
double sum; // Add the two numbers
double product; // Multiply the two numbers
double quotient; // The first number divided by the second number
double difference; // The first number minus the second number - This may result in a negative value being returned
double userInput1; //Stores the first number as a double after being converted from type string
double userInput2; //Stores the second number as a double after being converted from type string
public void init()
String number1; // The first number to be entered by the user
String number2; // The second number to be entered by the user
number1 = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please enter the first floating point number"); // The user inputs the first number as a string
number2 = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please enter the second floating point number"); // The user inputs the second number as a string
// Convert the user's input from type string to type double
userInput1 = Double.parseDouble( number1 );
userInput2 = Double.parseDouble( number2 );
// Perform the calculations
sum = (userInput1 + userInput2);
product = (userInput1 * userInput2);
difference = (userInput1 - userInput2);
quotient = (userInput1 / userInput2);
public void paint( Graphics g )
//The applets background will be set to the desired colour if super.paint(g) is commented out
//But the background will remain grey if the code is not commented out.
//What am I doing wrong?
//super.paint( g );
setBackground(new Color(50,150,255)); //Light Blue
g.drawRect(10,10,250,100); // Draw a rectangle 250 pixels wide X 100 pixels high to enclose the rest of the program's output
//Dispaly the results of the calculations to the user
g.drawString( "The numbers entered are " + userInput1 + ", " + userInput2, 25, 25);
g.drawString( "The sum is " + sum, 25, 40);
g.drawString( "The product is " + product, 25, 55);
g.drawString( "The difference is " + difference, 25, 70);
g.drawString( "The quotient is " + quotient, 25, 85);

You could try defining
public void update(Graphics g) {
paint(g);
}That's the only difference I see between your code and my applet code. If that isn't it, you could try getContentPane().setBackground(...) but I don't know how that could make much difference (I would think that the content pane is transparent...)
Another possibility is that, if you're using Swing, you probably shouldn't be overriding paint() and should stick to the paintComponent() method or whatever is appropriate.

Cannot change datagrid item background colour dynamically

Hello, I am trying to change the background colour of a data
grid item dynamically.
I am using a component for each item with the item_renderer
function
then in the component this is the line i am having trouble
with
<mx:Canvas width="100%" height="100%" id="item_bg"
backgroundColor="{data.status_colour}">
data.status_colour is definatly set and has a hex value,
#FF99CC for example
i tried
<mx:Canvas width="100%" height="100%" id="item_bg"
creationComplete="item_bg.setStyle("backgroundColour","{data.status_colour}")">
it did put colours on the but they were all in the wrong
place, so a completed item should be green but it is coming up with
red (failed)
any ideas??
thanks

You will need to use a custom calculation script, something like:
// Custom calculation script
(function () {
    // Get the field values, as numbers
    var v1 = +getField("Severity1").value;
    var v2 = +getField("Likelihood1").value;
    // Calculate the product
    var prod = v1 * v2;
    // Set this field's value;
    event.value = prod;
    // Default background color
    var bg = color.white;
    // Define the orange color
    color.orange = ["RGB", 1, .33, 0];
    // Determine background color based on the product
    if (prod >= 1 && prod <=5) {
        bg = color.green;
    } else if (prod > 5 && prod <= 10) {
        bg = color.orange;
    } else if (prod > 10) {
        bg = color.red;
    // Set this field's background color
    event.target.fillColor = bg;

Changing Slide Show Background Colour

Being a newbie to this forum, I am not sure if this has been asked before, if so I apologise in advance.
I have set my site up using the black background as it is a photography related site and the black lends itself well to the photographs.
Is there a way of changing the parameters of the slide show to change the background colour from white to black ?
Any help appreciated.
Anton

I guess you are not publishing to .Mac
Here are some alternative slideshows for non-.Mac publishing (with black backgroudns)

How do I change the message background colour in mail,(2013)?

I'd like to be able to do this.
I send a lot of photos,(for my biz as an art photographer), and they would present FAR better on aa grey or black background than on the harsh and glaring white background.
I haven't figured out how to create a coloured background template for the Stationary plug, or that might be an option.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciate!

You can't do that, but you can change the visual properties of the display by selecting Apple menu > System Preferences > Displays > Color > Calibrate...

ITunes 11 how can the window background colour be changed from white to black in Grid View?

How do I change the window background colour ,in Grid View, from the new, default, white back to the good old, more easy on the eye, black?
Apple did this to us in iPhoto some time ago and had to add a preference for shades of grey other than white. Why didn't Apple learn from this mistake?

It is good to know I am not alone. The first thing I did after downloading iTunes 11 was go into preferences to change the background color. But alas, the option for a dark background is gone. I also was kind of disappointed in the lack of ability to resize the artwork, but not to the extent of some other commenters here.
I will say this though. I love the way the albums expand with custom colored backgrounds based on each album's artwork colors. This looks fantastic. Still it would be nice to accomodate those who prefer to use a dark background for the overall application's theme.
So, Apple, I join with my fellow users in requesting the return of resizable artwork, and the option for at least a dark (or an even further customizable) background color for the overall theme of the application. Thanks!
Godspeed,

Is there a way to change default background colour?

Hi,
I am frequently embedding U3D files into adobe acrobat and every time I need to manually change the "default" background colour from grey to white in the Show Advanced Options tab of the insert 3D dialog box.
Is there a way to permanently set the default background for all inserted 3D files to white instead of the grey default?
Thanks!

No.

How to change background colour?

Hi
I have an image with a statue and different background colours. I want to change the complete background colour around the statue in one colour for example white. I tried several times but it doesnt work. Do you have a suggestion?
Thx
Dom

Hi Dom,
You've asked about a technique that many beginner Photoshop users want to learn. The challenge is that this technique requires learning a few tools and skills before you start. I would recommend the following:
1. Learn about how to make selections. Here is an image with the blue background selected. Here's a video about making basic selections.
2. Learn about layers and masks and how they work. Below is the same image with the blue background hidden. This video teaches the basics about the Layers panel.
3. Create a new background layer to replace the old one. Below is the image with a new solid white background on the layer below the original statue layer.
Once you've learned about selections and layers, try following the technique Russell Brown uses in the video below to create a simple selection of the current background and hide it by using a layer mask. Once the old background color is hidden by the layer mask, the layer beneath is revealed and it replaces the old background.
Good luck with your project! I hope this helps.

Changing Background Colours

I am in the process of writing a package and want the end
user to be able to pick their own background colour (Within reason)
For my sins I used the getfileproperty and setfileproperty
whilst writing the package but they don’t work with a
published package.
I have also tried drawing a box and changing that colour, but
would still prefer to change the package background colour.
How do you change the background colour?

If I remember right there's no way to change this at runtime.
Only solution
I can think of is your box in the background idea, setting
the box to a
layer that will keep it below anything else. Also you need to
attach a
calculation to the display that sets movable:=false

How can I change the background colour when working on a doc in full screen view (pages)?

Recently I have been working on docs without the distraction of having to see my desktop around my page file by using the full screen view in pages. I do find the contrast to an all black screen too harsh though and it makes my eyes more tired than seeing the clutter of my desktop around the page. Is there any way I can change the background colour?
Any help much appreciated!

When you are in Full screen mode move the cursor up to the top to show the Format bar. Then look to the far right. There you'll see Background and a rectangle. Click on the rectangle and change the colour.
For information on Pages download the Pages User Guide from your Pages Help menu.

How do I change the background colour on notes. I need a darker background due to a visual issue. Apple has now discriminated those with visual issues. I am so not happy with many of the new changes because of this.

I am so not happy with the new changes especially when it come to the ability to change background colours, fonts and font sizes/ colours... Does Apple really think that their only audience is the young cool crowd or people who do not have a visual impairment. Think before you make changes to your software and programs. You WILL lose more people to androids if you continue this way.
At least give users the ability to make apps like notes their owned by allowing them to pick the style, theme, background and colour, font size and colour.
A very ****** off Apple user who is now looking at Androids.

Hi Tricia,
I'm sorry but I don't see an ideal way to do this. Is it the yellow label text, e.g: "New" against the white background which is causing the difficulty?
The only way I've found of getting the colors to change in Notes is via Settings>General>Accessibility>Invert Colors but then it looks like something has barfed all over your screen.
I'd be very, very surprised if Apple do not fix this, firstly because I believe "Accessibility" is a legal matter and secondly because they will not want to cause difficulty for their customers. We have to remember that this is a major, major overhaul of iOS, it has essentially been taken back to the drawing board and done from scratch again, it may take a little time, but I'm sure they will fix these issues.
Regards,
Steve

Just uploaded iso7 , . . .hate it! Can you change background colours? How do you add a new item/activity to the schedule? In notes the font has changed, can I change it back and the link colour is now yellow instead of blue, can I change it? Thanks

Another question. How do you bookmark something. It was so easy before, why did they change it? Can I uninstall it?
