Change to Color problems

Here's my issue:
I have a guy wearing a bright green shirt in a scene. I can change the color of the shirt to a variety of colors except black. White doesn't work either. I've tried a bunch of different things and looked all over for an answer, but I'm coming up short. Anyone have a suggestion? Thank you!
I'm using CS 5.5 on a Mac, btw.

What Mylenium said,
I would think the best solution would be to mask out the shirt, then use tint, Black and White, or one fo the Hue/Saturation/curves etc type effect. If I am not mistaken (and I very well might be) I dont think that Black and White are seen as "Colours" as such - that is probably why it is not a choice.

Item: Display as Text - change background-color - problem in IE

Hi,
I have six display items, where I want to change the background-color, when moving the mouse over it.
I'm using javascript to do this, it's looking like this:
Call in Label: HTML Table CellAttributes: onmouseover="tab_mouseover('TAB1')" onmouseout = "tab_mouseout('TAB1')"
Javasacript:
function tab_mouseover(pThis)
var el = html_GetElement('P229_' + pThis +'_label').parentNode.parentNode;
el.setAttribute('style', 'background-color: rgb(160,200,240)');
function tab_mouseout(pThis)
var el = html_GetElement('P229_' + pThis +'_label').parentNode.parentNode;
el.removeAttribute('style');
It works properly fine in Firefox 2.0, but in IE 6 and 7 nothing happens, no error no background change.As far I could find, this functions should work in both browsers.
Has anybody any idea what's the problem with this in IE?
Thanks for help

Hi,
I think that the problem could have been because getAttribute and setAttribute use case-sensitive attribute names by default. You could also have tried doing:
el.setAttribute('style', 'background-color: rgb(160,200,240)', 0);
- the extra parameter of 0 tells the browser to ignore the case of the attribute name.
The method could have been failing because there was a STYLE attribute as well and this was taking precendence.
But, on the whole, I prefer to use Andy's method unless I'm creating a complete object from scratch in javascript.

For the sake of clarity and to save people time, Todd is asking about the behaviour of the Patch tool when using it to repair the area next to the young lad's head. Todd gets a blurred dark tone pretty much regardless of the options he uses.
IMO that's what I would expect to happen because of the close proximity of the other image elements i.e. the lad's neck and the strong lines of his shirt. I would not choose to use the Patch tool in this situation. Content Aware Fill makes a better stab at it.

I udate my os to 10.6.7 and since then my Pages have color problems. The text is not visible (white on white background) it does'nt help to change the text color nor background color. I just download the recent trail version of Iworks and install it. The first document I opened it was ok. When I open the second one the problem appear again and stayed. Pls help

This behavior was described many times.
In every occurrence,the operating system was an uncompleted one resulting of the use of Software Update to update the operating system to 10.6.2, 10.6.3, 10.6.4, 10.6.5, 10.6.6, 10.6.7.
In such cases, the solace was to apply a combo updater.
As you are using 10.6.7, download and apply the combo 10.6.7 :

After that, run Software Update which will urge you to apply :

Problem in changing scene color

I want to change the theme of the application window. I have used RadialGradient in scene creation. Now i want to change the theme by changing scene color.

Hi,
If you want to change the color of your radial gradient dynamically, you can depend on the -fx-base color.,
Suppose, you have the style class to apply for gradient as
.sceneGradient{
 -fx-base: red;
 -fx-background-color:radial-gradient(center 10% 10%, radius 100%, derive(-fx-base,90%) 10%, derive(-fx-base,-10%) 90%);
}In the above class, the base color is red. I can change the theme by changing the base color dynamically.
So please check the below SSCCE (Short, Self Contained, Correct Example) code
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.geometry.Insets;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class RadialGradientForScene extends Application {
 Stage stage;
 Scene scene;
 StackPane root;
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 Application.launch(args);
 @Override
 public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {
 this.stage = stage;
 this.stage.setWidth(600);
 this.stage.setHeight(600);
 root = new StackPane();
 root.getStyleClass().add("sceneGradient");
 this.scene = new Scene(root, Color.LINEN);
 scene.getStylesheets().add("styles/template.css");
 stage.setTitle("Radial Gradient Scene");
 stage.setScene(this.scene);
 stage.show();
 VBox vb = new VBox();
 vb.setSpacing(15);
 vb.setPadding(new Insets(15));
 vb.getChildren().addAll(getButton("Red", Color.RED),
 getButton("Blue", Color.BLUE),
 getButton("Green", Color.GREEN),
 getButton("Yellow", Color.YELLOW),
 getButton("Black", Color.BLACK) );
 root.getChildren().add(vb);
 private Button getButton(String title, final Color color){
 Button btn = new Button(title);
 btn.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
 @Override
 public void handle(ActionEvent paramT) {
 //On click of button, i am changing the base color accordingly
 root.setStyle("-fx-base:"+rgbToHex(color)+";");
 return btn;
 public String rgbToHex(Color color) {
 int i = (int)Math.round((double)color.getRed() * 255D);
 int j = (int)Math.round((double)color.getGreen() * 255D);
 int k = (int)Math.round((double)color.getBlue() * 255D);
 return "#"+toHex(i)+toHex(j)+toHex(k) ;
 private String toHex(int code){
 String str ="0123456789ABCDEF";
 return str.charAt(code/16)+""+str.charAt(code%16);
}I hope this can help you to answer you question.
Happy Coding :)

My Excel with PowerPivots acts weird, it hangs when i try to change font color

Hi
I am facing a weird issue using PowerPivot in my workbook, there is a worksheet named Charts in my workbook and all the charts i am using resides in that worksheet. Whenever i try to change the font color in that sheet, my excel's color palette goes blur
and then everything just freezes and turns black. This problem is happening only with Charts worksheet, when i try to change the color in other sheets, it works just, the problem is only with Charts sheet. File
size is 16 MB, there are just 10 pivot tables with some calculations and some calculated fields. There are no add-ins other than PowerPivot.
Thanks,

Hi,
In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
Do you receive any error message?
Which Excel version are you using? Excel 2013 or other?
Which workbook format are you using? XLS or XLSX?
Are you performing any specific task?
According to your description, this issue seems only occur with the special worksheet "Charts".
Firstly, I recommend we copy all of the content to a new/blank Excel file to test.
If it works fine, this issue might be caused by the "Charts" workbook itself. We'd better check the "Charts" workbook. Or re-build the file with a new workbook.
If it still makes Excel hang with a new file, this issue might due to the content. Please check the content first.
Secondly, we could follow below KB to troubleshoot this issue:
https://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2758592/en-us?wa=wsignin1.0
Thirdly, if the issue still exists, we may try to collect the Event log and App crash dump file to do advanced troubleshooting.

I am unable to change the color of text in an email I replay to or compose. I am on 31.6.0 release of Thunderbird.

When I receive, reply or compose email. I no longer am able to see or change the color of text. I select to change the text from black to Red (or any other color) and the text just stays black, The color seletor box will show the last select color, but never actually changes the text color in an email. Also in received email, when the sender has indicated their replies to me are in another color, All the text only appears as black. I never had this problem in the past, not sure what has happened. I did restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled and this did not change the problem.

How to change text color in CS4

Hey everyone. I know I'm not fluent in Dreamweaver, but had DW8 before upgrading to CS4 and I'm pretty handy with it. In version 8, if I wanted to change a text color, I simply highlighted the text and picked a color. No worries.
However in CS4, I seem to be only have that ability in my CSS properties, (not HTML properties). Then when I try to change the color, it gives me a dialogue box asking questions such as "new CSS", "for this page only", etc. and I don't understand what I'm supposed to do.
Can someone tell me in a user-friendly way (step-by-step), how to simply change a text color on a page? I went to the help topics and it said to use the 'color-picker', but that takes me back to my original problem.
I'm either doing something terribly wrong, or ADOBE has made a simple task into brain surgery!
Thanks in advance for assistance!
Mark

Beginning with CS3, DW became more compliant with W3C web standards which call for content (HTML) being separate from style (CSS). Thus you now have two properties boxes: one for HTML content and another for CSS styles.
Create a few CSS classes using the CSS style panel.
CSS:
.red {color: red}
.blue {color: blue}
.green {color: green}
Highlight a word or sentence on your page and apply the appropriate class to your HTML.
HTML:
 this is red text
 this is blue text with GREEN WORDS in the middle

I need to change the color of the font in my Bookmark Toolbar. Unable to read all bookmarks.

No longer have a question about editing the Bookmarks Toolbar. I may be dense, but I have not discovered how I may change the text (font) color when using View, Bookmarks, Custom. I see the capability to choose to use text and image, but not to change the color of the text. The ability to "bold" the text would probably be sufficient. I will revisit the Getting Started page and select other background colors to try and alleviate the problem. Persona or thema colors conflict with black text (for my older eyes - I have a vision problem.).

You can make such a change with code in userChrome.css
Add code to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css userChrome.css] below the @namespace line. 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration#How_to_edit_configuration_files
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#personal-bookmarks .toolbarbutton-text {
color: black !important;
background-color: -moz-dialog !important;
font-size: 11pt !important;
font-weight: bold;
</nowiki></pre>
You can adjust the values or leave out things that you do not want to change.

Display color problem - asking for a color solution

So I have this serious problem with my Macbook Pro.
Some months ago I suddenly saw green colors in black area's and pink line colors in white areas.
Text on white background was extremely frustrating to read, since it was surrounded with small pink lines and flickering.
Note this was only near max white and max black areas of the screen.
I found out that it was due to a hardware failure, since slightly bending the laptop (!!) would remove the problem
Attaching an external monitor doesn't show the defect, and booting in Windows 7 (bootcamp) still shows the same screen problem.
Searching the web, it appears that it was a NVidia related heat problem, known to my model, but the offer to get it fixed for free by apple (since it was a known issue) had already run out december 2012 (!!). I think my laptop is about 3-4 years old, and the battery pretty much died on me the first year, probably due to heavy usage and the graphic card getting too hot. There are small sweat/corosion marks of where my hand are placed when typing, on the aluminium, due to how hot my laptop got. It sometimes got so hot I couldn't touch the aluminium on the top left corner near the 1-2-Q-W keys.
Fixing my Macbook is too expensive. Just getting someone to look at it to diagnose it (without repairing it), costs a lot in my country, and we have no official apple store, only authorized resellers. I know it's probably the motherboard, because I tried to unscrew the backlid and gently touch certain area's on the motherboard with a pen, while the computer was still running, to find out where the short circuit was. I only started this kind of trying to "self service" it, because I knew how expensive replacing the motherboard would be (if that was even the issue?).
I have multiple times tried to place something up against the sensitive area's on the motherboard, and then screw back the backlid, to put some pressure on it, which at first worked brilliantly and removed the color issue for some weeks, before it started reappearing. I think the heat from the laptop slowly makes the motherboard adapt, and the problem returns. Extremely frustrating indeed.
I hope I can one day afford a Macbook Air, but until then, I don't want to throw more money after my poor macbook (which I pronbably can't sell anyway, like previous mac's I've owned, the day get a new. It's too worn out + battery got only 5min on a full charge).
I think it's wisest to rather save the money for a Macbook Air, and try to survive until then. Therefor I was hoping someone could help me with a temporary solution.
In Windows 7, using the Nvidia Control Panel to apply color management, I was able to adjust the individual color output values, and thereby remove the the screen issue! Maybe the colors are not as good anymore, but it sure beats not getting a headache after 10minutes trying to read an article.
I tried the same thing on the mac, using Preferences>Displays>Color>Calibrate, but this guide is much harder to use to get a decent result (since only the last 2 options really makes a difference, but changes the colors completely, which I can't change by going back to the first color settings since then it just undos the last step I just did. I'm currently writing this with a very blue pale screen.
I also tried to use ColorSync Utility, expecting to enter values manually, but contrary to the articles I read about using ColorSync, I cannot edit the values in the color profile I created (I can only change the ASCII text input fields). Trying to save the profile gives me the error 'The Document "screenbug.icc" could not be saved.'
I tried to look for alternative color calibration software, but most of them required hardware, or expensive full version to unlock the settings I needed (like SuperCal).
I hope some tech savy users out there that can help me, or at least make my life with my macbook less of a pain.
All help is much appreciated!!
PS: I've been a loyal Mac user since always. Few things I've learned is:
1) Don't buy the first version of new hardware. Wait about a month for reviews, to check for issues. I had a problem with an expensive MacPro that had to be replaced, but luckily for free since it was Apple's mistake. Sometimes Apple products also get minor internal changes/fixes without announcements, to help solve reported issues from early buyers.
3) Take care of you Mac, especially so because you can often sell your used Mac's for quite a value the day you want to upgrade. I've sold about 3 Mac's in my lifetime, for quite a gain, though I don't expect this macbook to do as well, if at all. But it's normally something to be cautious about.
3) Don't order custom configurations from the Apple Store, if you can live without it (+ it's usually crazy overprices). I payed extra to get the NVidia GeForce 9600M, and was happy with it for the first couple of years, but is now causing me all the problems I have today + made my Macbook worthless.
Stick with what the default configuration if possible, as other configurations might not have been tested carefully.

Who exactly is your comment "I am asking you to fix this problem soon" directed at?
Remember that you are posting on a user to user forum so nobody can really help you. If you want to give feedback to Apple, then contact them directly at http://www.apple.com/feedback.
Also, if you have an iPhone 3G and iOS 4.2.1 is the latest software that you can install on your phone, then there is absolutely nothing that anyone can do to fix the problem if you want to install Skype that requires iOS 4.3 - what do you think anyone can magically do?
iPhone 3G is a very old phone now and if you want to install Skype on your phone, then you need to go out and buy a new iPhone - either a 4s or a 5. Nothing more to it. Buy a new phone.

How to change the color in "blocks" effect

Hi,
I've got a problem with Motion.
I use a "behaviour" effect on my text that is called "blocks".
When I set parameters to default, I see a blue effect with some red blocks in backgroud.
I want to turn this effect into a green effect.
The problem is that when I change the color into green, there is still a strange orange color on some blocks.
I've added all the color parameters (face, shadow...)that I thought it could be due to but nothing changes. I still have this strange color on some blocks.
The strangest thing is that it sometimes becomes ok when I make the changes but when I save and re-open my file in FCP or Motion, it isn't ok.
Has anyone already used this effect and seen that problem?
Thanks for your help...

Hello,
Here is the problematic:
1° How can i change the color of the text on a button in Roll Over or Click state (Cs5.5)
- I've many button in a doc im creating
- the color of the buttons is white with black stoke & black text
- in roll over state i want them to inverse the color coding (the text white & bottom black)
- currently the text becomes invisible as black on black cant be seen (ive stroked it white but that looks ugly)
- i would just like to know if there is a function made for this?
My other questions:
2° Ive a presentation on which Ive created buttons which tigger pop-up animations
- i have 5 buttons which trigger animations
- the viewer can chose to Click on any of the buttons randomly
- the problem is once the animation is open how can it be close... either:
a) by it self after "40" seconds
b) when ther viewer clicks another button
3° Ive created buttons linking pages..
- "go to page xxx"
- when i do a preview and click on the buttons the links dont take me to the right pages
- is that normal? (maybe in preview its suppose to be like that)
4° I would like to intergrate YouTube videos in the presentation so they play inside the docment.. when i tried.. it said the 'link isnt a flash video'
- what should i do?
5° Once i export it into Swf. how how can i visualize it? or put it online?
Thank you for your time.

You should setup Object Styles - these can also include Paragarph Styles that can be triggered when the Style is selected.

Does it work properly when you export it to the finished file?
4° I would like to intergrate YouTube videos in the presentation so they play inside the docment.. when i tried.. it said the 'link isnt a flash video'- what should i do?
InDesign won't link directly to youtube videos. I think your best bet would be to use Downloader to download the video and embed them directly in Indesign.
5° Once i export it into Swf. how how can i visualize it? or put it online?
Thank you for your time.
You can look up how to embed a SWF file into your HTML - but it depends what you mean by "online" there's a dozen ways to get a file "online".

I have two graphics workers on osx 8. They are both complaining that their files are changing label colors on it own. Any idea what could cause this?

and there were and have been problems with any two nvidia cards which was the main part of my question.
To provie details try pasting all but serial number from system profile. Sorry but Mac Pro tells me nothing, not model, year, or what graphic card it came with or updated with.
