it was purely oracle forms technique.Yes !!!
you can.
follow the instruction.
In 10g
Set to Editable
Edit -> Preferences -> change colour mode property to Editable -> Exit form builder
Add Custom Colour
Re-open the form
Open a canvas
From Edit Menu-> Layout Options -> Colour Palette
Select a colour to edit by clicking on an undefined colour i.e. a white square on the bottom far left of the palette
In the current colour dialog it will say something like custom5 change it to a more meaningful name you can call it the rgb value
Then click on rename -> then Edit -> change the rbg value to the colour you want to add-> click OK
Export the custom colour palette
From the canvas -> Edit -> Export -> Colour Palette -> give it a name
Your are done...

Choose accent color for hovered icons when using dark interface in Bridge?

How about add the ability to choose the accent color for hovered icons when using a dark interface in Bridge? Currently, the icon color remains orange and unchangeable. Personally, I would prefer a blue accent color to match my system. Any chance of making this possible in CS6?

Oh, I should add that I'm looking for solutions somewhat up-to-date and/or are related to or designed for 10.6 Snow Leonard. I did a search for answers before asking the question, and the (mostly unsatisfactory) answers I found were all from several years ago and applied to earlier versions of OSX (10.3, 10.4, etc.), and therefore no longer were relevant or usable.

Choosing font color for titles in fcpx without using the color Picker

I am working with a lot of titles. I would like to use a consistent color in all of my titles. I know how to select text color with the color picker in the inspector. I find this very cumbersome. Is there some way to numerically specify the color (e.g. R= 45, G=55, B=120) or to have a preset palette I can choose from? I found that by double clicking on the color swatch in the inspector that I can bring up a colors window. I can store custom colors there, however I can find now way then to apply that custom color back onto the font. There must be some way of doing this that I am missing. Thanks for your help.

You can create an entire "Style" in one title and save that style as a preset.
Create the look of your Title for the first instance. In the inspector > Text pane, click on the label at the top (usually shows: "Normal" until you set a specific style) -- from that dropdown menu, select Save All Basic and Style Attributes.
You can then: Select ALL of the titles you want to apply those attributes to (shift click or drag a marquee through them all) and use the dropdown menu to apply the style you saved in one fell swoop.

Choose background color for titles

Is there a way to choose the background color when adding titles before or inbetween movie clips? Or is black the only option?

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
Titles backgrounds default to black when there is no background present, you can place the title over any colour background to achieve what you want. I suspect though this isn't what you were asking and what you really wanted to know was can you change the default colour when there is no background. I don't think you can.

How can I get Colorful Tabs to use separate colors for 2 different gmail accounts?

Running Firefox 29.0.1 on iMac OSX 10.9.3. I have multiple Google accounts: 2 gmail accounts and 1 Google Calendar. The Add-on Colorful Tabs will allow me to choose a color for one gmail account , but it also uses that same color for the other gmail account. How can I get different colors on 2 different gmail accounts?
Also, Colorful Tabs is also doing the same thing for my homepage (google.com) and my google calendar. How can I get different colors on these 2?

I personally use "Fabtabs" for my mozilla FireFox.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fabtabs/
This add-on doesn't have any issues like that when I use it.

Background Colors for Titles

Is there a setting within iMovie that will provide for a different color background than black for titles?
Thanks!

Placing a title over a color background
1 In the timeline viewer, select the video clip to the right of where you want to add a title or text
and drag the clip to the right to create a gap.
2 Click the clip viewer button and locate the new color clip (it will be black).
3 Select the color clip and choose File > Show Info.
4 Click the Color box (shown below) and choose a color for the clip.
5 Click Select and close the Color box.
6 Follow the instructions above for creating a title, but don’t choose the Over Black checkbox. A
color clip is technically a video clip.

[JS] User Interface to Choose Layer Color (Get List of UIColors)

I know how to set layer color with UIColors so I am not somewhat familiar with how it works. I want to create a dialog (which I know how to do) that has a menu that lets a user choose their layer color. So I want to get a list of all the UIColors and present that as a menu to the user. I cannot figure out how to get this list of colors. I know how to access them individually, but I'd think it would act similar to an array. I can't figure out the code to access the list to use it in a menu. Is this possible and if so how?
P.S. I am supporting InDesign CS2 and CS3.
Thanks in advance.
Dan

Thanks for all the help everyone. We finally have the answer. Here's the following code that I'll be using. While Kasyan's works, I went ahead and made the menu a little nicer to read (like InDesign's actual menu is). My first array is for the dialog's menu, the second array contains the proper code I need later for setting the menu color. Again, thanks for all the input. Doing this in just CS3 was so much easier, but I also need to support CS2, so this works just fine (in both CS2 and CS3).

How to set canvas extension color for arbitrary image rotation?

I'm using Photoshop CS4 v 11.0 with Windows XP. When adjusting canvas size there's a menu for chosing the canvas extension color. Where is the menu for chosing canvas extension color for arbitrary image rotation?

This will be the background colour selected in your toolbox.

Randomly choose color for shape

I am working on a project for fun in which I need to have 144 squares choose a random color out of a pool (array) of predetermined colors and I need these shapes to do so every 1 second in the project. I was thinking the only way would be to write an after effects script, but I also thought it'll be cool if I could per object place a script which I do not know if it's possible.
The only thing I am familiar with in after effects is creating time lapse. I have not played with it much more than that, however I am familiar with coding and have written some advanced scripts for Photoshop.
Any help in pointing me into the right direction will be appreciated.
Thanks

So, played around with what you mentioned, and nether of them will do what I needed. I ended up playing with scripting and finally finished getting what I wanted.

    var square = squares.property(i);

    while (fillColor.numKeys!=0) {

Choosing replacement color

In PSE4, I find the Color Replace tool works remarkably well (for changing the colour of someones clothes for example).
The only problem is choosing the precise replacement color I want is not easy just by pushing the 3 sliders around. I would like to be able to specify a particular RGB colour, or use the eyedropper to select a color I like.
Is there any way of doing this?
I have tried doing calculations based on the difference in hues, saturation and lightness of the original and desired replacement colors but this does not seem to work very well.

If you mean the Replace Color dialog box, yes you do not have to use the sliders. After you've selected the color you want to replace, click the replacement color square. This will open the color picker and you can choose a color there by entering the numbers, or you can click in any open image and the color you click will become the replacement.

An applescript to change the background color for all finder windows

I'll start off by telling you what I am trying to achieve, then show you what I've tried.
I have a macbook with several HDD's attached. what I want is for each of those hdd to have a specific finder window background color. so no matter where I am in that hdd the background color will always be the same. so for instance if I set the background color of hdd 2 to blue then as long as I see a blue background I know that I'm within hdd 2.
I've tried setting up an applescript to do this but can only get it to change the open finder window, and none of the subfolders have their backgrounds changed.
here is what I have so far:
tell application "Finder"
tell the icon view options of the front Finder window
set the background color to {52942, 54484, 31097}
end tell
end tell
so how do I get this to apply to all subfolders without opening each one and running the script.
thanks in advance for any and all help with this

According to this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AppleScript/2.1/en/as2039.html
it seems that the various options can only be set while the window is open and in icon view.
Rather than manually opening the window of every single folder on the hard drive, it should be possible to write a script to open every folder in sequence, make sure it is in icon view, change its background, then close its window. I have never been any good at the "actions within actions" procedure needed for folders within folders, so maybe someone else with the necessary knowledge and experience might be able to assist in this regard. Such a script would probably take a few minutes to complete while it ran through "every folder of every folder", but it sure would be quicker to have the process automated than to do it by hand - computers are really good at repetitive tasks (as long as the instructions are accurate, of course!).
On the other hand, you might like to try the following:
open a few windows in icon view, choose Show View Options in the View menu (I'm in System 10.4), click the radio button All Windows, click the Color radio button under Background, then choose your color. It might achieve what you are trying to do.

Problem in Setting Background Color for JButton

Hi,
I am using Background color for JButton (color is selected from the customized JColorChooser created by us) where it contains the option of transparency. If we choose light color, then the background is set to JButton, but when we mouse-over the JButton, other components inside the container (JPanel) is getting displayed inside the button.
Can anyone help to sort out this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Here is the code.
DialogWrapper is JDialog and ColorEditorPane is JPanel.
DialogWrapper dlg = new DialogWrapper();
ColorEditorPane colorPanel = new ColorEditorPane();
colorPanel.setValue( _data.getTransparentColor());
dlg.showWrappedDialog( colorPanel, "color_help", "color_dialog" );
if( dlg.isOK())
Color chosenColor = (Color) colorPanel.getValue().getContent();
_data.setTransparentColor( chosenColor );
_transparentColorDisplay.setBackground( chosenColor );
_transparentColorDisplay.setOpaque( true );
this.repaint();
this.doLayout();
this.validate();
}I've several components like JCheckBox, JRadioButton, JTextField in "this".

How to get similar color for objects in different pictures

how do you get similar color for objects in different pictures
I have a prodject that i'm working on and i need to edit several images at once (preferabley) so that they are the same color. They are wooden cupboards and i need all the wood looking the same colour. In light room you can edit a group of images at the same time hence the colours are the same . Is this possible in Elements ? If so how do i do this ?
I have tried duplicating layers and it just replaces the whole image, it seems to work using levels layers but not the other layers ... I have 30 more images to do and would ideally not like to adjust all the images manually ? I dont mind doing minor tweaks. Essentially all the images where taken with the same camera and lighting and lens's ...
Screen shot is where I'm at at the moment...
I have posted this question else where but was told to repost - this is a link to my previous post as to where we got to
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4720576#4720576

You could try using the raw converter. Open one file and edit it (File>Open, pick the image and choose Camera Raw as the format before you click Open). Then open the next image and click the little four-lined square on the upper right side of the ACR window and choose Previous Conversion from the flyout menu.
