Change something's color

I am trying to figure out if I can change the color of something without having to leaving LR3 and editing in Elements or another app I have. In Scott's killer tips he talks about use the brush and selecting the color you want from the photo you are working on, and then painting with it. However, when I do that and then try to paint something, it paints over the original color which results in a blend of the two colors. An example of what I would like to do is change a red flower into a blue one. Is there a relatively easy way to do that?
Jim

Hi Jim.
The trick is to allso set the "Saturation slider" to -100. That will make sure to get rid of the original color and only let the new color you selected get visible. You can allso set the slider something in between and get a controlled blend.

I am new to this I am trying to do something very simple. I need to change the background color to

I need to change the background color of a photo to white and then shrink the head of a photo for a passport and make the picture output a 2x2.
Can someone help. Thx

Here are the requirements for US passport. Scroll down for the passport tool to make the picture utilizing one on your disk.
http://travel.state.gov/passport/pptphotoreq/pptphotoreq_5333.html
If you decide to make it in Elements and print it, you should have a resolution of 240-300 px/in for a good output. I suggest that you print the 2 photos on good quality paper, probably both on 4x6 stock, and trim with scissors to specification.
Open your picture and go to Image>resize>picture size, and check the resolution. If it is less than 240 px/in, enter 240 in the field and see if the dimensions remain adequate. If not, you may have to resize.
Use one of the selection tool, e.g. lasso tool, or selection brush tool, to select head and shoulders
Go to Edit>copy to put the selection on the clipboard
Open a new, blank file (File>new>blank file) 2.25 x2.25", resolution the same value as your picture, background white
Go to Edit>paste. The picture will be on its own layer
Access the move tool to position it, and to resize with the corner handles of the bounding box, if necessary
Please report back with your progress.

Change the font color of a text field in a table by key-combination

I want to change the font color of a text field in a table (single cell only) on pressing a key combination. Does anybody know how to do this.
I have a lot of data in a table. During an evaluation of the data in a meeting I want to change the color of the text depending on the result of the meeting. (for example: High risk = CTRL+R makes the text red).
I know how to change the color using a button, but I do not want to add a button after each cell. For this reason I would like to do it on a key combination that alway refers to the active cell.
Many thanks for your help in advance.
Marcel

Hi,
I don't think you can use the ctrl key like that as those shortcuts will be intercepted by Reader (ctrl-R toggles the ruler display on / off). You also might have trouble updating the color while you still have focus on it. You can use the shift key in a similar way, so if you only have lower case characters in the text fields then you can do something like;
if (xfa.event.shift)
    switch (xfa.event.change)
        case "R":
            this.fontColor = "255,0,0";
            break;
        case "O":
            this.fontColor = "255,102,0";
            break;
        case "G":
            this.fontColor = "0,255,0";
            break;
    xfa.event.change = ""; // ignore character
If you need uppercase characters maybe you can have one button to set "review mode" and test that on the if (xfa.event.shift) line. But again it wont take effect until you have tabbed out of the field.

[SOLVED] Bash changes consolle's colors by itself

Hi archers,
I've wrote a little script which ask for the result of a given random moltiplication because I was exercising with $RANDOM and something strange's happend.
No matter where I am (Tty, Tmux, Urxvt, Xterm...) Bash changes consolle's colors by itself if I do ^c to stop the script, instead of write a reply.
i.e.'s:
correct behaviour
$ 8 * 9 = ?
$ 72
$ ls
file in red file in yellow file in grey...
Wrong behaviour
$ 8 *9 = ?
$ ^c
$ ls
file in blue file in green file in white...
What the heck?
Bash version is 4.2.39(2)-release.
The script is the following:
while :
do
min="3"
max="7"
fat1="$(($RANDOM%$max+$min))"
fat2="$(($RANDOM%$max+$min))"
prod="$(($fat1*$fat2))"
echo "$fat1 * $fat2 = ?"
read res
while [ "$res" != "$prod" ]
do
echo "$prod"
echo "Insert the correct result."

done
return 0

How can I change the 'selected' color of one JToggleButton only.

Hi,
This seems like a simple / trivial question, but I just can't figure it out. Is there a way that I can create a JToggleButton and change the selected color of only that JToggleButton.
I'm trying to create a simple sidebar like component for navigation within my app. A group of JToggleButton[s] added to a ButtonGroup (with the proper layout / sizing) works great, but the default JToggleButton colors don't suit my needs. I know that I can change the colors using the UIManager / UIDefaults, but I don't want to change the defaults for every JToggleButton in my app. I only want to change the defaults for a few select JToggleButton[s].
For example, I can do this:
UIManager.put("ToggleButton.select", UIManager.getColor("Table.selectionBackground"));
UIManager.put("ToggleButton.background", UIManager.getColor("Table.background"));but I'd rather do something like this:
JToggleButton jtb = new JToggleButton("Toggle Button Text");
jtb.setSelectedColor(UIManager.getColor("Table.selectionBackground"));
jtb.setBackground(UIManager.getColor("Table.background"));The only thing is, I can't find any method that is the equivilant of 'setSelectedColor(Color)' for JToggleButton.
I know I could do it by adding some listeners to the JToggleButton[s], but that seems a little complicated for something like changing a color.
I'd also seen a solution in the forums where someone had extended the ButtonUI of the pluggable look and feel they were using. I'm not interested in modifying the look and feel I'm using. As far as I'm concerned, that would defeat the purpose of having a pluggable look and feel as I would have to duplicate my efforts for every look and feel I want to use.
Any help would be appreciated,
Ryan

How to change the background color of a sequence?

I'm using Premiere Pro CS5 on Win7 x64. I've imported a JPEG that's a different size than my 1920 x 1080 frame. The background of this JPEG is white, but the background of the sequence is black (by default), so the borders of the JPEG make it stand out. I want the JPEG to blend into the sequence background by making the sequence background white. How can I change the sequence background color? Thanks.

Jim and Ann are correct. I can see where someone used to After Effects might ask that question though because in AE you can change the background color of the composition. Same with Photoshop.
However, I think it would confuse things if changing the background color were to be allowed in Premiere Pro. Black tells me something. I suppose white could tell me the same thing, but at this time it is not possible in Premiere Pro.

Change the background color of a title bar

I'd like to know if it's possible to change the background color of a swing application title bar.
Thanks in advance.

In Windows I think you can change the overall look of the desktop - Standard Windows comes with a bluish scheme, but you can change that, say to something like greenish. On NT you do it using right click on desktop > Properties > Apperance > Scheme etc etc.
So I think Frame title colour is very much a OS specified thing.

Change the background color of a table created by ADDT (Login)

I am trying to change the background color of a table in the login form created by the developer's toolbox. I then go and select the table and change the background color. But it has no effect. The only insight I have is when I delete this "" from the Action in the form, then the table's background color changes. As far as I can tell this line of code is only return the url of the page.
I am not understanding something.
Does anyone have any insight?
Thanks!

the table is linked using a CSS rule..
the CSS rules comes from something called Skins..
see mxkollection2.css.
KT_XXX are the class ID's for table names.
if u change this rule it will effect all the tables which use that rule in ur whole website.
u can try switching skins from ADDT control panel.
KT_tngtable is the tables css rule name defined in skins /Skinname/tng.css
hope this helps u ..

Change the background color of a cell in JTable

Hi all,
How can I change the background color of individual cell in JTable. I need to construct my own TableCellRenderer or not? I'm now using the DefaultTableCellRenderer now.
Thx

You could create your own renderer or you could try something like:
table = new JTable(model)
     public TableCellRenderer getCellRenderer(int row, int column)
          DefaultTableCellRenderer tcr =
           (DefaultTableCellRenderer)super.getCellRenderer(row, column);
          if (row == 1 && column == 1)
               tcr.setBackground(Color.green);
          else
               tcr.setBackground(Color.red);
          return tcr;
};

Is there a way to change to different colors on the bottom behind the apps?

I want to know if there is a way to change the background color behind the apps at the bottom of the screen and in the folder with multiple apps in it.

The color in both of these areas is a fogged version of the background wallpaper image behind the area. If you want something different choose a different wallpaper.

How to change the font color in a strict type def programatically

Could someone suggest a way to change the font color of a string indicator in a strict type def cluster programmatically? The cluster contains a label that is color-coded to match the function of the data channel represented by that cluster. The function of each channel is not predetermined, so the font color needs to be changed programmatically. To represent all channels, I have arranged a large cluster that contains 100 instances of the control. This makes it essential that the control be strictly type defined in order to change the layout of the clusters uniformly.
Can anyone suggest either a method by which I can let the control remain a strict type def and change the font color, or a method by which I can programmatically change the control from a strict type def to a type def? Currently, I am saving the control as a strict type def every time I make a change and then saving it again as a type def when I am ready to run the program. This works fine, but just seems inelegant. This color-coding is used throughout the program in various indicators, so a neat solution would be greatly appreciated.

As mentioned in my Nugget on Type definitions you can create strict type-defs that contain type-defs.
If you make your data definition a type and put that definition in a strict type-def (one of each flavor) you can use the appropraite strict type where each is required.
Yes the data structure will have another level of nesting so if you are "too far gone" you may not like this idea.
Otherwise you can write a VI that opens the typed-def and do a "save as..." and use it everytime you edit the type-def.
I hope something helps!

Change the Apple color

So lets say I changed my apple logo's color and didnt break anything during the proccess. Will this still void my warranty? I already had a problem with my macbook before i did it which is the battery not showing up or charging while the system is booted. I kinda want my macbook fixed so i can use it on battery power but since i changed the logo color will that screw me over? i didnt even open the bottom case just the top bezel.

The top case is not a user-installable part. So, yes, if you take apart the screen, any damage you do will NOT be covered by your original warranty or an AppleCare Protection Plan. If you have a hard drive failure later (for example), it will be up to the technician who repairs your hard drive to determine if opening the top case affected your hard drive. If they determine that your unauthorized hardware change did have something to do with the hard drive failure, then you'll be responsible for paying for a repair.

How do I change the default color (gray) that 'Edit - Find' uses?

When I search for a key word in a PDF file viewed in Safari web page using Edit -> Find

What version of Pages & what version of OS X are you using?
A problem with an early Software Update for Snow Leopard caused a lot of problems. The problem is not whether or not your system is the current version but how it got there. You must use the combo updater, not the one from Software Update unless it specifically states it is the combo. Software Update will only offer the combo if your system is two or more versions behind.
If you're not running the latest versions of the iWork apps & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. If you installed from the downloaded trial or the retail box, they must be in the iWork '09 (or '08 if that's what you're using) folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
