Default Background on "View Options" now white only?

It appears that choosing a color is no longer an option, unless my prefs are corrupted? Can others verify one way or the other, please?

It's awful isn't it !?
There is no official, easy, recommended way to get the dark theme back. The only way I found (and which works for me), is to sideload an old dark themed calendar.
Try looking in the CrackBerry forum how to sideload an app and search there (or via google) for sys.pim.calendar.bar (I found it on mega.co.nz).
Good luck

  • 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.

  • 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.
    Regards,

  • Anyone?... Set View Options Default to 'This window only'

    I came across this discussion (below) that I could not find a solution for. Why does the View Options window always default to 'All Windows'? Usually when you are changing a window setting, you are doing it for that window. Obviously you should not have to change the All Windows settings that often right?
    There has got to be some plist settings (which I could not find) that will automatically set the View Options to 'This Window Only' rather than 'All Windows'.

    Subject: Change Show View Options Default to 'This window only' ??
    Message: I find it very annoying that the finder's default in show view options goes to 'All Windows' rather than 'This Window Only' -- i end up constantly chaning the appearance of folders, much to my chagrin. Is there any way to have the default be on 'This window only" ??
    Thanks!

    Yes, I too find the default maddening and know of no way to change it. AFAIK the behavior is hard coded into the Finder. I would be delighted if that were not the case... You can always send Feedback on the issue:

    Of course, considering the number of Finder problems I doubt anything much will come of it, but you never know.

  • Change the Show View Options' "All windows" default to "This window only"?

    By default, all Show View Options panes are set to "All windows". Is it possible to change the default to "This window only"?
    I regularly change icon sizes for various folders, but never for all windows. So every time that I use the Show View Options pane, it's an annoying "click This window only" process.

    The default is for any window you have not previously opened and set to have All Windows as the default, for List and Icon Views. Once you click This Window Only and make your settings, then every time you open that particular folder it should remain at the This Window setting.
    I find the default of All Windows really really annoying, but I am aware of no way to change this. Send Feedback to Apple:

    It should be a user settable global preference, but it isn't.

  • View Options default settings

    I am fairly new to iTunes/iPod. Recently got 80 GB video iPod that I use with Win XP. I want to change the default settings for View Options. I don't want several of the categories that are selected by default and I want to permanently add other categories. I can't find a way to change the default settings. Every time I open my iPod with iTunes, it displays the same set of categories and I have to change the selected categories manually - annoying. Is there a way to change the selected categories in View Options permanently? Nothing about this in iTunes Help.

  • "Show view option" and "set as default" doesn't work

    Hello,
    I have my own settings in viewing finder items (like most of the users). Unfortunately those setting don't apply to iDisk folders, even after using "set as default" in "Show view option". There is any solution for this?
    Thanks in advance for help.

  • Was using flags in the split view applying flags to images regardless of selection.  Flag would appear under cursor.  Suddenly they now are only visible when and in the large window.  How do I get this capability back.  It is very useful.

    I have been using flags conveniently when using the split view flagfs would appear under the cursor in the filmstrip view.  Now they only are visible when a single image is selected and not in the film strip.  This very convenient feature has suddenly and unexplanedly been lost.  How do I get it back?
    Dick Koos

    How are your metadata settings? For me the flags are still showing. Perhaps you have disabled the flags for the Browser view. Edit your Metadata Presets for the Browser:
    Enable "Show Metadata" for the Browser and Viewer, and then click "Edit" and eanble the flag for all Metadata views.
    For the Browser you need to edit the "Grid View" settings, expanded and Basic:

  • Reset Finder show view options in Snow Leopard 10.6

    Hello, I have been playing around Snow Leopard 10.6 and I am still unable to fully reset my finder view options to one style through all of my system, not just the top folders...
    I have tried tricks that used to work with leopard like holding the option key to enable reset to defaults while in view options, but that trick doesn't seem to work anymore.
    I have upgraded from 10.5 so maybe my upgrade is not ok...
    Thanks for the help.

    OS X saves appearance information in hidden .DS_Store files. Any folder with "personal preferences" set contains such a file. Deleting the file resets the folder to default view (...and deletes any file comment, by the way).
    To show hidden files and delete .DS_Store files manually, paste the following in Terminal, hit Enter, and then restart Finder (alt+rightclick on Finder's Dock icon > "Relaunch"):
    {quote}defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles ON{quote}
    Undo (Restart Finder again):
    {quote}defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles OFF{quote}
    Another way would be this. Terminal, *Use at your own risk*:
    {quote}sudo find /path/to/folder -name ".DS_Store" -depth -exec rm {} \;{quote}
    This command will ask for your password, and then find and delete (and not "move to trash") any file named ".DS_Store" in the given directory (path and subfolders). It will ask only once, and it will delete immediately whatever (filename) you type after -name. For your user folder the command would be:
    {quote}sudo find /Users/yourusername -name ".DS_Store" -depth -exec rm {} \;{quote}

  • Is there a way to change default background colour?

    Hi,
    I am frequently embedding U3D files into adobe acrobat and every time I need to manually change the "default" background colour from grey to white in the Show Advanced Options tab of the insert 3D dialog box.
    Is there a way to permanently set the default background for all inserted 3D files to white instead of the grey default?
    Thanks!

    No.

  • Permanently Set View Options

    Greetings. I'm looking ease a minor frustration that occurs when using ARD 3.3.2. In the app, I have a number of scanners, each representing a specific range of IP addresses. When viewing any one scanner, I like to customize the view options to see only: Computer Name, IP Address, Current User, User Status and Current Application. However, once these preferences are set for each scanner and I quit ARD, the View Options are then reset to Default when relaunching. Is this considered standard operation? The issue persists beyond complete reinstalls of ARD. Thanks.

    I think I have found the fix for this problem. I thought there was only one way to change your Remote Desktop view options by selecting View from the Menu Bar and then selecting View Options. There is another way and your selections stay. In the Remote Desktop window Control Click on the header bar of the columns that has the Name, IP Address, Mac OS Version, ARD Version, etc and in the box that pops up you can put a check mark next to or remove the check mark from columns you don't want listed. I've quit ARD and re-opened it and the list of columns I want to show is staying. It's not defaulting back to the default view setting.

  • How to have "black and white only" be the default print option

    Just installed a new printer and would like to set it up so that the default print option is black and white only. How do I do this?

    Can't find this anywhere. I'm brand new to Macs so I
    might need more detailed instructions.
    I have an HP Photosmart C6100 by the way.
    Not sure which post you are responding to since you replied to yourself
    Every printer is a little different so you may have to do some searching through the settings. I don't have an HP Photosmart C6100 here so I can't say for sure where the setting is for that printer.
    The closest thing I have to that model printer here is an HP OfficeJet 6310
    In that model you choose Paper Type/Quality
    In drop down menu under Color you select Gray Scale
    Then you can still save the preset as I described in my previous post.
    If the C6100 is different than that you may just have to search through option pages and explore the drop down selections.
    Which I could be more specific, but they are all a little different.

  • How can I make folder View Options the default in Snow Leopard?

    Hi everybody! Here I am, learning to Mac!
    When I do a secondary click on an open folder's background and click on +show visualization options+ (actually, +mostrar opciones de visualización+ in spanish), there's an option +set as default+ ( +ajustes por omisión+ ) which, as far as I understood, should change all the rest folder's aspect, as icon's size, font size, background image and so on... but all the rest folder's aspect keep being shown as before, just the folder where I am working changes.
    My questions are: if I am wrong with the use of that "ajustes por omisión", what is it for? And how can I personalize the aspect of all folders on my mac?
    Thanks for your help

    It's "show view options" in English. Also obtained by typing CMD+J
    Those only apply to the top-level folder. Each folder you open uses whatever you've elected to use as the defaults. Select a folder, CMD+J, set the view as you desire, click on Use as Default button. That setting will be used for all windows that you open in the future that have never been opened previously. All other windows that you opened will retain whatever view you previously selected for them.
    If you want to reset everything to one view, close all open Finder windows, launch the Terminal app (/Applications/Utilities/), copy & paste this command into the window that pops up,
    find ./ -name ".DS_Store" -depth -exec rm {} \;
    hit the return key, quit the Terminal app, restart, open a Finder window, CMD+J, set up the view options as desired, click the Use as Defaults button, and close the view options window. Now, every Finder window you open will have this view.

  • "This window only" option missing from Show View Options

    Hi,
    When trying to create a background image for a disk image for distribution, the radio button for "This window only" is missing. I read instructions on the web on how to set the background image, make the file invisible in the Terminal. It will work on the 10.6 system that created it, but will not show on another computer. (Mac OS does not matter)
    I eventually had to do this on an old system with Tiger 10.4 . There when looking at View Options, the radio button is there labeled 'This window only' . I created the disk image and voila' it will keep the background image for any other computer.
    So my question is - Is there a keyboard combination to set this? This option is missing in 10.5 and 10.6 . This is really frustrating.
    TIA

    I'm experiencing the same problem. However, I don't think it's defaulting to an arbitrary colour. Rather, it seems to be defaulting to the exact opposite colour (than whatever colour was selected) in the spectrum.
    For example, if I set the background colour of a folder to red, it instead defaults to green (and vice versa). This is consistent for all opposing colours.
    I hadn't clued into Crayons being different — thanks!

  • View Options defaults to "All Windows"

    I've seen other unresolved posts. Maybe this has been corrected in newer versions of OS X. Is there a plist setting that will configure the "View Options" to default to "This window only", instead of "All Windows"? I don't know how many times I've changed the size of my icons in a folder, only to find that I've changed them everywhere. Any one know a way around this?
    Thanks,
    Alfredo

    What we were referring to is what happens when you create a new folder and bring up View Options: at the top the default that is automatically checked is All Windows. If you unthinkingly set various view options for that folder, without checking the This Window Only, then those options will be applied to all new folders, and all folders that do not already have settings of their own. However, folders that you have at some point selected and checked the This Window option, then set custom view options for it, will be unaffected.
    I suspect the problem that you are running into is that folders you have previously worked with will not be changed. Try this:
    1. Create a new folder, bring up View Options, leave the All Windows checked
    2. Run through List view and Icon view and make some settings
    3. Leave the View options window open and then start opening some folders that you are unlikely to have ever opened before
    4. Those that you haven't worked with should show the All Windows box checked, and display your new settings when you change to the various views
    5. Windows you have set before will have the This Window Only box checked, and display whatever options you previously set for them
    While this can all be confusing, and frustrating, it works for people who use different options in different folders for different purposes. If you could inadvertantly wipe out all the choices you had made for special purposes with one forgetful moment people would be even more distraught than they are now.
    To accomplish what you want leave the settings you want check for All in a new folder. Every time you open a folder that isn't that way, and it has This Window checked, you'll need to change it to your preference. Eventually all the folders you use will be what you want, and all new folders will inherit the All Window settings you have chosen.
