Change screen background color without any defer

I would like to change the screen background color using the Framed color box.  I can do this using property node. The problem is I cannot update the screen simultaneously as that in VI edit mode. I hope the screen background color can update as the mouse moving on the framed color box.   Does anyone know a solution? Thanks.

Here is an OK cheat.  Dont use a background, make the color box larger than the screen and move to the back most element.  Looks the same but isnt perfect.

  • How to change screen background color in iTunes

    I just uploaded the latest version of i-tunes, and now my screen that lists my playlists is black and I can only see the names of playlists when I cursor over them. Also, the library song list screen is now purple, used to be blue. Any way I can change?

  • Mavericks changed my background color without warning?

    I set the background on my desktops (external thunderbolt monitor) to solid black and I can't remember if I clicked the back button first, but I then closed out of system preferences...
    I used the machine for several hours, then shut it down.  I came back today and the backgrounds are both white... 
    Anyone else having this happen?  What could have possibly caused this?  I shut the computer down (it did not crash, or exhibit the infamous Mavericks random shutdown bug), so I'm having trouble figuring out the best way to diagnose this.
    Please help!

    Check the default color settings:

  • I have trouble reading in Black and White. changing the background color for all

    I have trouble reading in Black and White. On my PC I can change the background  color (and I am not just talking about for a word or pages document) but for eveything so anything that was a white background I can put in what ever color I like but it still prints in Black and white.. I can't see how to do this on the Macbook air. on my PC I do this in display. Sort of putting colored film over the screen I dont know what to do. Can anyone help?

    Hello Floridamacbookpro,
    You may be interested in the 'invert colors' Accessibility feature. This can be invoked by pressing the Control, Option, Command, and 8 keys on your keyboard. This only affects your display, and does not have any affect on printed items.
    Mac OS X displays inverted image colors (white on black, reverse type)

  • How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.

    How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.
    As an example, html widget has white background on iPad, and black on mac. The same goes for interactive widget.
    The MathType text inserted is inserted as a image, and will have the same color when in fullscreen as when not. So I need the textcolor to be the same in both views. Anyone know how to fix this?

    We're still not communicating. This is why I wanted an example .iba.
    Here's a re-creation of my own, going off what you described. You said "all html widgets and all gallery widgets" have this problem. So I inserted a blank HTML widget and a blank Gallery widget, and typed into both. Inserted a MathType equation into both. I don't see any difference when I preview it on my Mac compared to the preview on the iPad. I want to help, but I can't help if I can't duplicate the issue.
    I've attached the screen shots and the .iba file [link to .iba file].
    Feel free to email me directly at bobm at dessci dot com. If you're uncomfortable giving some information here, tell me anything you want in email. I work for the "MathType company", Design Science.

  • Change sidebar background color

    First, themes do NOT solve this problem.
    I want to change the background color of the bookmark- and history sidebar. Changing themes does NOT change that background color - at least none of the 100 or so that I tried.
    I asked Google, but nothing seemed to match, which is strange, I'd think LOTS of people would ask this (I'm usually LAST asking for any GUI changes, I always use what is there without changing a thing, but this light gray background is a bad fit for most websites right next to it).

    This code in '''userChrome.css''' will do that. Change the color code to what you want. <br />
    <pre><nowiki> #bookmarks-view, #historyTree {
    background-color: #DDDDDD !important;
    } </nowiki></pre>
    http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colors.asp
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css
    This add-on makes it quite easy to work with the 3 "user" files. <br />

  • In Pages 09' how do I change the background colors on the templates?

    I have been trying to change the background on one of the templates from red to green for a while.  I can't figure it out and i can't find answers online any where that are helpful at all.  I just need to changes the background color to what I want it to be and not what the programs sets them too.  Any ideas?  I'm totally stumped!
    Thanks for the help!

    Hi Burke,
    Here's the result, using Peggy's suggestion:
    Process:
    Click on the thin strip of red to the left of the title ("THE THOMPSONS") to select the background.
    You'll see the small x in each corner, indicating the object is locked.
    Go Arrange > Unlock (or press option-command-L) to unlock the object.
    Click on the Fill Color well in the format bar, and choose a new colour from the palette.
    Go Arrange > Lock (or press command-L to re-lock the object.
    Save the result.

  • How to change the background color of a cell based on other cell background

    Hi,
    Sorry if this is a basic question - I am new to XML. I want to create a table column, with no data in it. I then want to change the background color of the column based on the background color of other columns. I.E.
    - If there are 3 or less cells in this row that are not green, color this cell green.
    - If there are 4 or less cells in this row that are not green, and 3 or less are not red, color this cell yellow.
    - If there are 4 or less cells in this row that are not green, and 3 or more are red, color this cell red.
    If there are 5 or more cells in this row that are not green, color this cell red.
    Many thanks for any assistance.

    Okay - I have this resolved.
    1. Create two variables (Yellow and Red):
    <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'Yellow', 0)?>
    <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'Red', 0)
    2. For each cell, set the background based on their individual traffic light criteria, and update the associated color variable by 1. By default the backgrd color is set to Yellow so I only have to check for the lower and upper bounds:
    <?choose:?>
    <?when:number(CHECKED_IN)<=1?>
    <?attribute@incontext:background-color;'Lime'?>
    <?end when?>
    <?when:number(CHECKED_IN)>3?>
    <?attribute@incontext:background-color;'Red'?>
    <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'Red', xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'Red') +1)?>
    <?end when?>
    <?otherwise?>
    <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'Yellow', xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'Yellow') +1 )?>
    <?end otherwise?>
    <?end choose
    3. I now want a cell that is Red if any of the cells in the row is red. Its yellow of there are 3 or more yellow cells in the row, and no reds. Otherwise its green. First, create an empty cell and make the default color green. Then add:
    <?if: number(xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'Red')) > 0?>
    <?attribute@incontext:background-color;'Red'?>
    <?end if?>
    <?if: number(xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'Yellow')) >= 3 and number(xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'Red')) = 0?>
    <?attribute@incontext:background-color;'Yellow'?>
    <?end if?>
    4. Finally, reset the variables for the next row:
    <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'Yellow', 0)?>
    <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'Red', 0)

  • Why can't I change the background color of my UIView in IB?

    I have a rootController which controls several other ***ViewController's and I have been doing the usual thing by changing the background color in IB.  However, for one controller, I cannot change it's background color from the default no matter what I do.
    To be clear, each new controller created has been done in the same manner using the UIViewController subclass with nib file.
    I have cleaned the project and deleted the app from my iPhone countless times and still no change.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    @ KT
    I'm replying to myself because I cannot see your post ??????
    From my email- KT said:
    "Typically, when a same-only different controller acts up like this, the first thing to do is to rewire - sounds like you've gone down that path tho.
    Can you duplicate one of the cooperative controllers, add it to the mix and see if things change there?"
    I've tried all of that several times.  I have no idea.  Maybe some sleep will help it and me.
    Thanks for your comments and suggestions.
    Edit
    As soon as I posted this - your post appeared.  Again??????
