Changing background.

Is there a way to change the background without going into system preferences? I believe in windows you can right click and set an image as the desktop....is something similar possible on the mac?
am I overlooking the obvious?
-justin

If you right click on the desktop itself, you can choose Change Desktop Background, but that just brings you to the Desktop part of System Preferences. You're only hope of duplicating the Windows method may be with some third party software, but at least this hint will reduce your time to get to the Desktop preferences.

  • How to change background color in mail messages?

    Capacity to change background colours seems to have been removed.  Has anyone found where to do this please???

    It's still available in Lion's version of Mail.
    Open a New Message window in Mail. Then select Show Fonts from the Format menu.
    In the Fonts screen, click the button for Document Color; a clor selection window will open. In that, choose the color you want for background.
    Note - if you do this before entering any text in the New Message, you can save it as a Stationery item, which means you can select it from the Stationery menu in the future, saving many steps.

  • How to change background color in AutoComplete window ?

    Is it possible to change background color in AutoComplete window ?

    Bob, A.Ankit, you're both chasing a ghost here.
    The screenshot shows an autocomplete enabled textbox with its dropdown list of autocomplete values to choose from. There is no property defining its backcolor. Not in the textbox nor in any class, neither any other baseclass nor _combobox of _base.vcx
    The only way to chnage that color is not recommended, via changing windows theme colors. That would effect any window and control.
    If you need another color even turning off themes won't help as VFP doesn't offer any property controlling that color, so you really would need to implement the autocomplete feature yourself, if you want the specify this backcolor.

  • How to change background color in online editor

    How to change background color in online editor

    Jeff,
    if you try to change all the plsql keywords to the same background color (that is not either white or black or blue) via the options panel in SQL Developer (Code Editor > PLSQL syntax colors), you will get the new background color in the worksheet only for the areas with plsql text, while the areas without any text will have the same background color as the base color scheme you started with. This means that there is no way to change the "general background" color via the options panel, but you have to use the same background color of one of the predefined color schemes.
    This seems to me a bug, but probably it's not considered high priority, so it will not be fixed for the time being.
    I would like to stress the fact that being able to change the color scheme of the development environment that you use every day about 8 hours a day can make quite a difference on your eyes at the end of the day.
    Thanks,
    Paolo

    Did I miss something or did apple just...get rid of it?????why???

    Hi, Mark,
    Under the Format menu select Advanced and the click on Make Master Objects Selectable. Now click on the red area. You'll notice little faint x's at the corners. In the Arrange menu click on Unlock. Now you can edit the color. (In this case a gradient.) When you finish, go back and Lock it again and deselect Make Master Object Selectable.

  • Change background color in enter-query mode

  • Change background color of textbox based on non-visible value

    Hello,
    I have a 10g master - detail form. I was wondering how can I change background color of text box (NAME) based on non-visivle item (MODIFIED_BY) value.
    So far, I have created two visual attributes and have put following code on "WHEN_NEW_BLOCK_INSTANCE" trigger
    if( :main.MODIFIED_BY = 'COCO') then
         SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('main.NAME',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'VA_BLUE');
    else
         SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('main.NAME',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'VA_RED');
    end if;
         But, it always goes to "ELSE" part and make RED color for all records. Could you please help me with this?
    Thanks.

    Got it.
    Post Query trigger on block
         if (:main.MODIFIED_BY ='COCO') then
              set_item_instance_property('main.NAME',current_record,visual_attribute,'VA_BLUE');
         else
              set_item_instance_property('main.NAME',current_record,visual_attribute,'VA_RED');
