Default Background (canvas) color

For some reason my background is red where it used to be white. Please point me to the control of the background color. the layer properties show a red rectangle.
Would like to change default BG color to white.

Press 'd' to get the default colors.
Or just change the background color from the tool palette or color palette.

I guess that you should have first done this and can even do it even now:
Have the entire project selected first; then open your preferences and choose your white background. This should allow your entire work to have a white background.
That is NOT the way it is supposed to work. The background color preference is global to the application, it does not work on a project by project basis. This preference setting determines what FCP X displays in the Viewer in areas where you have no content (or where the content is transparent) - as in the present case, where the photos do not cover the whole viewer area.
You can easily confirm this. Open some project with a transparent area, and set the background to say, white.
You should see white showing through any transparent area (that's what the OP was expecting, and it should happen!).
Now close this project, open something else. Switch to, say, checkerboard background.
Open the previous project and see the checkerboard (not white!) background.
One workaround for the present problem is to place a custom generator behind the content, and set its color to white. But of course this should not have been necessary.

Three Numbers questions:how do you change the auto default background or fill color from white to another color to use in multiple succeeding operations? what is the formula to express the ratio of two numbers as a percent?

Numbers questioons:
-how do I change the automatic default background fill color so it stays a non white color?
-what is the formula to express the ratio of two numbers as a percentage?
-how do I create a signal formula to be sue against an entire column of data (for example, if I wanted to multiply the each cell in the column by the number 10)?
-I have created a spreadsheet in Numbers with header and rows labelled and it contains formulas as well. I now want to create a new 'blank' of this template with same header and row names and formulas, but without the cell entries from my earlier exerciser so I can use again in the future. How do I do this?

Hi Matt,
For short columns, the easiest method is to select the cell containing the formula, then grab the fill handle (small circle at the botom right of the selected cell) and drag down.
For long columns, use either Jerry's suggestion (copy/paste) or Insert > Fill > Fill Down.
Copy/Paste:
Select the cell containing the formula. Copy
Select from the cell containing teh formula to the end of the column. Paste.
Fill Down:
After entering the formula, and pressing enter...
Click on the column reference tab to select the whole column.
Command click on each cell above the one containing the formula to remove it from the selection.
When cell with the formula is the top cell in the selection, go Insert > Fill > Fill Down.
Pick whichever is easiest.

Barry

Flex 4.5.1 SDK & default-background-color Compiler Argument

Hey guys,
I was scanning the available compiler arguments list (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/using/WS2db454920e96a9e51e63e3d11c0bf69084-7a92.html) for Flex 4.5 SDK and noticed that the -default-background-color argument is gone (I realize it's been gone since 4 just haven't used the SDK much lately). My background shows up as black when I run my app (it's an AS3 app with the new Away3D 4.0 Broomstick library) and there is no Flex code in my app so I was depending on this compiler argument to set my background color to white.
How can I achieve this now that the argument is no longer available? I just simply want to have a white background without physically having to create a white sprite in the back of my scene. Is this possible anymore?
Matt

Simeon,
Thanks for that, I had a brainfart and forgot you can have the properties defined in that manner. I changed it but it still wasn't working which made me realize I had to change the backgroundColor property on the view in Away3D. I realized this after trying the params for the class and then not adding the view (which had a white bg) and then i looked at the docs and bam, there it was. Thanks!

Print outs have thin border when -default-background-color is set

Hey everyone. In my application the print out have this very thin border. The -default-background-color is set to #333333 (dark grey) and this is the problem. When I set the color to #FFFFFF (white), the thin borders go away.
When I set the default-backgroun-color to #FFFFFF, my loading screen is white. I don't want that.
Does anyone know how I can have my loading screen with a #333333, but not have the thin border lines around my print outs? Setting the border properties on the printed component doesn't work. The problem is with the background color.
Thanks for reading.
Tom

Still hacking away at this problem.
I thought I had the fix until I deployed the AIR application. Setting the -default-background-color to white worked fine when running from flex builder, but when I installed the application. The "borders" are still showing.
Has anyone had any experience with this? I'm printing Point of Sale receipts and they look like crap with these lines around them. On top of this, some printers print differently. The HPs print a border around the whole component. The Brother printers just print the left and right. One of my customer's printers just prints the bottom and right borders.

Default background color and Focuslistener disapair on table?

When I imp. TableCellRenderer on my table the default background color and Focuslistener disapair. What can I do to get it back and still keep TableCellRenderer on my table? This is how my TableCellRenderer looks:
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int col) {
        JFormattedTextField beloeb = new JFormattedTextField();
        beloeb.setFormatterFactory(new DefaultFormatterFactory(new NumberFormatter()));
        beloeb.setBorder(null);
        beloeb.setHorizontalAlignment(JTextField.RIGHT);
        if (value != null) {
            if (value instanceof Double) {
                Double val = (Double) value;
                beloeb.setValue(val);
                if (val.doubleValue() < 0) {
                    beloeb.setForeground(Color.RED);
        beloeb.setFont(new Font("Verdana",Font.PLAIN, 11));
        beloeb.setOpaque(true);
        return beloeb;
    }

I'm sorry to say this is a terrible example of a renderer. The point of using a renderer is to reuse the same object over and over. You don't keep creating Objects every time a cell is renderered. In your example your are creating:
a) JFormattedTextField
b) NumberFormatter
c) DefaultFormatterFactory
d) Font.
So you start by extending the DefaultTableCellRenderer. A JLabel is used to display the text. There is no need to use a JFormattedTextField. All you want to do is format the data. So in your constructor for the class you would create a NumberFormatter that can be reused to format your data. Then your code in the renderer would look something like:
if (value instanceof Double)
    Double val = (Double)value;
    setText( formatter.format(val) );
    if (negative)
      setForeground(Color.RED)
    else
        setForeground(table.getForeground());
}Here is a really simple [url http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=419688]example to get you started

Default background color issue

Hi,
I am trying to change themes at run-time using
StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations(). Whenever I switch to a theme,
the default theme's background color shows up for a fraction of a
second. I tried using the "StyleEvent.COMPLETE" event handler but
it doesn't seem to work. Is there a way to remove this? I want the
transition from my current theme to the next theme to be smooth
without the default background color appearing. If anybody can
please provide a solution for this, It would be a great help.
Thanks,
Jai

That's not what he's talking about... He's saying if you load

the default, green Halo theme before switching to the new style...
If I load up my white theme (White.swf -- compiled to swf from css)
and then I want to change to my red theme (Red.swf) like:
StyleManager.unloadStyleDeclarations("White.swf");
StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("Red.swf");
At the * point in the execution, it will flash the green Halo
theme instead of just making a smooth transition from white to
red... It doesn't look so professional...
I have the same problem when switching themes, and it's very
annoying... Guess I'll keep an eye on this thread...

Change default background color in Dynamic pages

Anyone knows how to change the default background color of a
dynamic content page in WEBDB 2.2?.
I want to display some information with a query in a Dynamic
Content Page but the background color is, by default, beige.
I try to force the the background color placing the html tag
<td bgcolor=#FFFFFF> but there is still a beige strip at the
left side of the table.
Thanks

Hi Richard,
For about how to inspect page element, you can use IE Developer Tools:

Setting a default background color

Hi All,
I would like to set a default background color for all the
components that I'm going to draw. What is the best
way to achieve this?
Thanks.
Syed

You can set using UIManager of the Look and Feel.
UIManger.put("Button.background", Color.blue);
will set the color of all the JButtons to blue. Like that you can change for all the components you need.

Flex 4 lacks the default-background-color compiler option?

Hello,
started converting my Flex 3 applications to Flex 4 and noticed that Flex 4 lacks the default-background-color compiler option.
Flex 3 has it: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=compilers_14.html
Flex 4 doesn't: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/using/WS2db454920e96a9e51e63e3d11c0bf69084-7a92.html
This raises a question: how am I supposed to keep my background from flashing from grey to white when the RIA is loaded? Is it possible to use preloader with background set to whatever color I like to see? Any easier solutions?
Best regards,
Jukka

This works for me:
@namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx";
mx|Application{
background-color:#ffffff;
Of course if you have changed the Application element to spark equivalent, you have to change the namespace.
Regards,
Jukka

Is a script available to set a default background for email messages?

I am new to the community, not to Mac though. Currently I am on a new MacBook Air, Lion installed.
I had a couple of minor issues about mail, the first I solved myself using automator, and succeding in sending an attachment file from finder. It went on working also after the upgrade from snow leopard to lion.
I could not find out how to set a specific default background for new email messages (e.g. a color, or a certain template); I do not want to do it everytime for each message. I tried automator, the workflows runs ok, tried to save it as service for mail and for finder but it did not catch; as application it works, but veeeery slow.
When I pull down the mail window, the Services line says "no services available".
Anyone who worked on this?
thanks

Help! How to make background layer colored

Hi. I have been reading the help section but can't find my
answer. Hope someone can help me.
How do you make the background layer of an image COLORED?
Especially, how do you make the background a colored GRADIENT FILL?
For example, on layer #1 I have just an abstract design of shapes.
I want a background layer#2 to be a separate SOLID fill of color,
or a gradient fill.
The only way I have figured out how to remotely do this is if I draw
a rectangle, then stretch it out to edge of "canvas", then fill it w/color
but the edges never line up perfectly. Isn't there a better way? Thank you so much!

Thx for your quick reply.
Really? Wow, well that is good to know then. I used to use
Illustrator yrs. ago and now I am kind of re-learning it. I just remembered-
couldn't one create a layer, then select the "paint bucket" tool, pick a color,
then fill a background that way? Maybe I am thinking of Photoshop....
