DataGrid Text Selection Color

In styling my application, I've used CSS to set the text
color for selected rows in a datagrid using the following:
DataGrid {
textSelectedColor: #ffffff;
When I compile and run the application, clicking on a data
row sets the color of the text to white, but if I click on another
row, the previously selected row stays white, and the newly
selected rows remains black. Is this a bug in the system, or am I
missing something?

Hmmm. I may have marked this as the answer too soon. I added
a creation complete item to my dataGrid so it looks like this:
<mx:DataGrid
creationComplete="setStyle('textSelectedColor',0xffffff)" >
and it compiles just fine, but seems to have no effect on the
behaviour. :-\

you can use setTextFormat() to assign several textformat
instances to selected parts of any textfield.

Changing Selection Color in Word 2013

When working with Word 2013, when I want to select a word or sentence, anything really, I often have trouble seeing exactly what I am selecting. I think this is because the page is, of course white, but the selection is only a very light grey.
To be clear, I am not talking about highlighting, that is a different feature. When I select text in the box I am writing in now, for example, the text is highlighted in blue and the text turns white. In Word, however, the text remains black and
the highlight is a light grey. Even in changing my brightness settings, it remains almost impossible to see. Is there a way to change the color of the selection?

Hi,

How to change the caret/selection color of text input controls?

Hello JavaFX Community,
i'm new to JavaFX. I'm using it since i saw the huge steps forward with version 2.0.
I have the task to migrate a software from Swing to JavaFX. As a part of our corporate design, we used a special color for the caret and text selection. I couldn't find any information about changing the caret color in JavaFX 2, so i'd like to ask you and i'd be very thankful for an advise.
There is a cross-post at StackOverflow:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10057989/how-to-change-the-caret-color-in-javafx-2-0
Thanks and best regards.

This might be possible, but it is not trivial. You cannot do it with a standard API at this time, you will have to look into creating a skin that allows for these properties to be controlled.
For example, the color of the caret is currently controlled in the TextFieldSkin (look for the "caretPath" property). Just forcing a color change in a subclassed skin is not so hard. Something like this:
public class MyTextFieldSkin extends TextFieldSkin {
public MyTextFieldSkin() {
this.caretPath.fillProperty().unbind();
this.caretPath.fillProperty().set(Color.RED);
}However, it gets trickier if this color must be dynamic and if you want other things to be changed as well. It is a place to start though.
Many of the skins methods and properties are 'protected' though, so atleast in Skin subclasses you have a lot of options to introduce new features and behaviour.

KdeGraphics-Okular - How to change the color of Text Selection tool

Hello All

The highlight color is determined by the system-wide color scheme that you're using. There's no way to change it only for okular.

Selection Color of a text box

As one of the project requirements, I have to provide a
functionality in my application to be able to change the selection
color of the text box. Having no provision in Flash, I searched on
the net and found one good example of doing that with
flash.geom.ColorTransform and TextFormat classes. It works fine
with windows. However, it doesn't work on Mac OSX. I am using Flash
8 with AS 2.0 for development.
I am seeking some support from all the brilliant developers
here. Can somebody help me with a solution to this problem?

Create 4 radio buttons, all called the same name, but with export values of cent.grn, cent.amb, cent.red, cent.blk.
Then use this as the custom calculation script for the text field:
var v = this.getField("myRadioButtons").value; //Replace myRadioButtons with the name of your radio button group
if (v=="cent.grn"){
this.getField("tf.assmnt.stat").fillColor = color.green;
else if (v=="cent.amb"){
this.getField("tf.assmnt.stat").fillColor = [ "RGB", 1,.5,0 ];
else if (v=="cent.red"){
this.getField("tf.assmnt.stat").fillColor = color.red;
else if (v=="cent.blk"){
this.getField("tf.assmnt.stat").fillColor = color.black;

Pre select datagrid with multiple colors

how to pre select rows in a datagrid with multiple colors based on a condition?
for eg: I have a status column.Based on the value of the status,the rows should be highlighted.

               highlight in green;
          }else
           if(status=='delayed'){
               highlight in red;

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 get the default selection color from JTable

Hi, there,
I have a question for how to get the default selection color from JTable. I am currently implementing the customized table cell renderer, but I do want to set the selection color in the table exactly the same of default table cell renderer. The JTable.getSelectionBackgroup() did not works for me, it returned dark blue which made the text in the table unreadable. Anyone know how to get the window's default selection color?
Thanks,
-Jenny

The windows default selection color is dark blue. Try selecting any text on this page. The difference is that the text gets changed to a white font so you can actually see the text.
If you don't like the default colors that Java uses then use the UIManager to change the defaults. The following program shows all the properties controlled by the UIManager:
http://www.discoverteenergy.com/files/ShowUIDefaults.java
Any of the properties can be changed for the entire application by using:
UIManager.put( "propertyName", value );

[ALV] Text in color and bold

Hello,
I have an ALV Grid and I would like one cell, with text color in red and in bold.
I'm in OOP's with CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.
I've tried like that :

            c_bold(4)           TYPE x       VALUE '00000020',
            c_red(4)            TYPE x       VALUE '00000017'.

fe_layout-info_fname = 'ROW_COLOR'.
fe_layout-stylefname = 'CELLS_STYLES'.
*-OUTTAB
clear we_style.
we_style-fieldname = 'XXXXX'.
we_style-style = c_bold.
we_style-style = c_red.
insert we_style into table we_outtab-cells_styles.
It doesne't work. The bold put the text color in black.
There is a solution ?
Thank you.

Hello Bernard

JTextArea selection color

Hi
I want to be abel to set diffrent colors in a textarea by selecting a
interval of text och and then selecting a color.
How is this done?
I dont mean the selection color, the actual text. The purpose is to have an textarea with lots of news text, and be abel to color mark them for diffrent priority.
Thanks.

hi,
JTextField, JPasswordField, and JTextArea each use a PlainDocument model. PlainDocument allows one font, one color, and is limited to character content. JEditorPane and JTextPane use a StyledDocument model. StyledDocument is much more complex, allowing multiple fonts, colors, embedded images and components, and various sets of hierarchically resolving textual attributes. So either use JEditorPane or JTextPane as per u'r requirement -
