DW cs4 - something changed - font code colors

Hello
[history ] I have been using DW CS 4 for 16 months.
[Question ] Sometime in last two months the font code colors changed and are mostly blue. I would like the code to have the variety of colors that it once had which made reading code possible.   When I've checked my code preferences I don't see anything which has changed.
About the same time I have been getting an error message (maybe a red herring to code color issue)
"this page contains some SWF that may not work properly in the most recent versions of Internet Explorer.
Dreamweaver cannot convert them to the new SWF markups. Please delete each of them and insert again."
However pages from same site that don't have SWF error are not having homogenous code color.
Elsewhere when I searched the error code someone suggested looking at extensions. The only extension I remember specifically adding to dreamweaver in last few months is
Adobe :   HTML5 hinting for CS3 & CS4
Thanks,
Casey

@ Nancy Thanks. Generally yes.   Transitional xhtml 1.0.
However ---
DW cs4 code color still is off.
It seems that a possible cause was not the swf issue (as I first asked about) but something with ASP coding.
I say this because when I remove the asp comment at the start of a product page (examples below) .   Yet I don't know asp or DW library well enough to conclusively say this is it or just a hack. I'd prefer best practice option.
'default to order tab or not
or
I edit it to a string
'default to order tab or not'
then rest of page is colored perfectly.
three examples (bigger below) --- as it is DW CS4 not rendering code colors correctly... then #2 removing 'default to order tab or not   then #3
Original --
Modified option 1 -- removed asp comment (which I'd prefer to keep)
modified option 2 ( asp commented closed with ' but this may not be best practice.... will check coding forum for that... for now I'm seeing if DW is messing up something it should be.... )

How do I change font and colors back to default?

I have changed the font and color of the text through the tools button and the options button and the content tab. I find nothing telling me how to change the font and colors back to default font and colors. Can you advise me? I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium OS. Thanks.

Hi Brenda19605,
You can use this article to set the fonts and colors: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-fonts-and-colors-websites-use?esab=a&s=font&r=0&as=s
The default settings for the font are in this article:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Some%20text%20shows%20up%20bold%20after%20upgrade
Unfortunately for the default colors has no good reference. But for text it is black (most lower left) color, background is white (most upper left color). Unvisited links is blue (column 8, row 5) and visited link is purple (column 9, row 5).
Let me know if you need anymore help!

How to change font size & color of text inside note and callout annotation using code ?

Hi,
I want to set different font size & color for the text inside note and callout annotations. And for this, I am setting properties using the DS attribute while creating annotations (see below code).
//"font: Helvetica,sans-serif 12.0pt;font-stretch:Normal; text-align:left; color:#rrggbb";
sprintf(buf,
"%s %2.1f%s%s%s%s;" , "font: Helvetica,sans-serif", float(g_fontSize),"pt; font-stretch:Normal; text-align:left; color:#", str[0], str[1], str[2]);CosDictPutKeyString (cosAnnot,
"DS",CosNewString (cosDoc, false, buf, strlen(buf)));PDAnnotNotifyDidChange(pdAnnot, ASAtomFromString(
"DS"), 0);
But this doesn't work when I just wrire text after creating annotation.
And suprisingly it works fine when I click first outside of the annotaion and then double click to write text inside annoatation.
Is this bug of Adobe ? if not then please let me know the fix.
Regards,
Arvind

Hi
Is there any way(eg. preference) by which we can change default color & font size for annotation?

Easiest way to change font size/color with CSS?

I've never used CSS before; I need to know how to change the font size and color using CSS, since it seems to be the only way to do it now. Sometimes I just need to change the font just for a few words, or a line here and there. Not necessarily page-wide, you understand. Is there a step-by-step process showing the simplest way to accomplish this? I'm not a web developer or professional designer, nor do I want to be. I just use DW to build simple web sites for personal use. I don't build using HTML - I solely use DM's GUI functions. And I'm also trying to teach my nine year-old how to start out page-building. I certainly hope that something as simple as changing font size doesn't require one to buy a book to learn HTML, which seems to be what a lot of people are telling me. Thanks for any assistance.

Easiest is not always the best way. You must learn the fundamentals.
CSS
/**this styles all paragraphs in your site**/
p {
font-size: 18px;
color: #000;
/**This is a class. Classes are re-usable**/
.red {
color:red;
font-weight:bold;
HTML:
This is a normal paragraph
This is a red paragraph
This is a normal paragraph with some red text here but not here.
If you're going to teach your 9yr old how to build web pages, start with the links below.
There's no point in teaching your child bad habits that will have to be unlearned later.

SQL Server Management Studio has stopped working when changing fonts and colors

I installed sql server management studio 2012 about 3 months ago to test drive and from time to time I'll attempt to change my background color of the TSql editor "In the fonts and colors option under tools"; however, the entire studio crashes
and restarts.
This has been ongoing since I first installed it 3 or 4 months ago, and have waited on posting to a fourm for help, assuming I am not the only one this is happening to I've waited for an update that might fix the issue.
I've got to start on some heavy scripting and that god awful white background kills my eyes. I've got to have a black background or my work day is cut off by about 3 hours becuase of strain.
What can I provide to someone that would help me with this?
Thank you,

Photoshop CS4 randomly changing font...

I'm baffled by this one. I created a new text layer and chose MT Resolution Classic Tight as the font. I entered one word, entered a space and the continued typing. However, everything after that space was in Minion Pro. I had to select all of the text and change it back to MT Resolution. This is happening no matter what font I choose. I could start with something like Arial, enter a space after the first word I type, and then the rest of the entered text is in some other random font. There seems to be no logic to it. I've been using PS for years, and CS4 for at least a year, and this problem has never come up before.
I can't even begin to imagine what is going wrong. Help?

How many fonts do you have installed?
Do a search for and delete all instances of adobefnt*.lst (that extension is .LST).
And if a broken or corrupted font is causing problems there is no alternative in the long run to tracking it down and deleting it.

I have lost the ability to change fonts,use color and size and when I try to write anyone,I cannot see my mailing list and there is no send button.

A few months ago my ability to use different fonts, colors and sizes suddenly disappeared. These choices were always available when looking at my email and I used them regularly . No one I asked ever heard of such a thing happening. I left it alone until I found someone to help. Then, a few days ago, when I clicked "write" , two things happened. First, I could not forward, reply or even see my collected email addresses. Second, there was no longer a place that said "send". My email page filled the entire screen and when I scaled it down, there was still no way to see my list or to send. I am a novice when it comes to fixes and terms but, I have asked people who have some experience with PC's they were stumped. I contacted Fairpoint and they said it must be a Thunderbird problem. Most of the people I asked said they didn't know Thunderbird. One suggested that I reinstall T.bird but, said I also might lose everything on my PC. I would appreciate any help you can give. Thanks, Jim

When you click Write and open the new message editor, press Alt to show the Menu Bar, then enable all the toolbars under View/Toolbars. Plus, press F9 to show the Contacts sidebar.

If your report is in ALV, then system automatically places these buttons in toolbar. so make your report as ALV (ie using fm REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY or using Object oriented CL_GUI*)

Change fonts in sylpheed when composing? [split]

Perhaps someone can set me straight on this - I too got tired of the load time required for Thunderbird and tried out Sylpheed. It is really fast, and has a decent feature set. One thing kills it though. When composing emails, there is no support for changing font sizing, color, etc. You get to select one font (and not even a color - seems to default to black) from the main configurations, and that is what is used - you can't highlight, bold, underline, change color etc. Whats worse, that seems to be just a display font. When Sylpheed sends the mail out, it is plain text. Essentially, there is no support for Rich Text for HTML. That is a bit limiting these days.
Oddly, this makes it worse than something old like Outlook Express from way back in the Win95 days!

split from "which mail client do you use?".

Code Color Scheme

Is there an easy way to change the code color scheme to a
black background in Dreamweaver MX 2004?
I would like to code in a color scheme much like gVim with
the darkblue color scheme.

AFAIK, there is no template available. If having it on a
black
background is what you want, you'll need to make the changes
manually.
If you think that the ability to choose colour schemes would
be a useful
addition to Dreamweaver, file an enhancement request directly

How to change font/ font color etc in a graphic object using JCombobox?

Hello
My program im writing recently is a small tiny application which can change fonts, font sizes, font colors and background color of the graphics object containing some strings. Im planning to use Jcomboboxes for all those 4 ideas in implementing those functions. Somehow it doesnt work! Any help would be grateful.
So currently what ive done so far is that: Im using two classes to implement the whole program. One class is the main class which contains the GUI with its components (Jcomboboxes etc..) and the other class is a class extending JPanel which does all the drawing. Therefore it contains a graphics object in that class which draws the string. However what i want it to do is using jcombobox which should contain alit of all fonts available/ font sizes/ colors etc. When i scroll through the lists and click the one item i want - the graphics object properties (font sizes/ color etc) should change as a result.
What ive gt so far is implemented the jcomboboxes in place. Problem is i cant get the font to change once selecting an item form it.
Another problem is that to set the color of font - i need to use it with a graphics object in the paintcomponent method. In this case i dnt want to create several diff paint.. method with different property settings (font/ size/ color)
Below is my code; perhaps you'll understand more looking at code.
public class main...
Color[] Colors = {Color.BLUE, Color.RED, Color.GREEN};
        ColorList = new JComboBox(Colors);
ColorList.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ev) {
                 JComboBox cb = (JComboBox)ev.getSource();
                Color colorType = (Color)cb.getSelectedItem();
                drawingBoard.setBackground(colorType);
          });;1) providing the GUI is correctly implemented with components
2) Combobox stores the colors in an array
3) ActionListener should do following job: (but cant get it right - that is where my problem is)
- once selected the item (color/ font size etc... as i would have similar methods for each) i want, it should pass the item into the drawingboard class (JPanel) and then this class should do the job.
public class DrawingBoard extends JPanel {
       private String message;
       public DrawingBoard() {
              setBackground(Color.white);
              Font font = new Font("Serif", Font.PLAIN, fontSize);
              setFont(font);
              message = "";
       public void setMessage(String m) {
            message = m;
            repaint();
       public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
              super.paintComponent(g);
              //setBackground(Color.RED);
              Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
              g2.setRenderingHint
              g2.drawString(message, 50, 50);
       public void settingFont(String font) {
            //not sure how to implement this?                          //Jcombobox should pass an item to this
                               //it should match against all known fonts in system then set that font to the graphics
      private void settingFontSize(Graphics g, int f) {
                     //same probelm with above..
      public void setBackgroundColor(Color c) {
           setBackground(c);
           repaint(); // still not sure if this done corretly.
      public void setFontColor(Color c) {
                //not sure how to do this part aswell.
               //i know a method " g.setColor(c)" exist but i need to use a graphics object - and to do that i need to pass it in (then it will cause some confusion in the main class (previous code)
       My problems have been highlighted in the comments of code above.
Any help will be much appreciated thanks!!!

It is the completely correct code
I hope that's what you need
Just put DrawingBoard into JFrame and run
Good luck!
public class DrawingBoard extends JPanel implements ActionListener{

          cbFont.setActionCommand("font");
          JComboBox cbSize = new JComboBox(new Integer[]{new Integer(14), new Integer(13)});
          cbSize.setActionCommand("size");
