Easiest way to change color scheme?

Can anyone give me some tips on the easiest way of changing the background color of ALL of my JComponents? I was hoping that everything was "transparent" by default and changing the background color of the JFrame to white would do the trick but no luck. Before I go through each and every component is there an easier way I should look into first? Thanks in advance!

You can change the properties for the entire application by adding the following at the start of your class:
UIManager.put("Panel.background", Color.WHITE);You will need to change each component separately.

  • The way of changing color in blinking lights

    Hi. Please tell me the way of changing color in blinking lights.
    in the present program, 
    There is a slider and it's property node with blinking and Fillcolor.
    Property node with Fillcolor conected color box with blue.
    so, I run program then slider turn on and off and showing blue and yellow.
    I want to change the yellow to another color!!
    I am look forward to your response!  

    Hi Kazu
    There are two ways:
    1. You can change the blink color in the LV-options (tools >> options >> color), which is a general setting.
    2. You make a little vi that changes the color of the control using a property-node. This way is more flexible, as you can use every color.
    Hope this helps.

  • Changing Color Schemes

    I have a set of animated backgrounds/lower thirds/overlays from Digial Juice that all need to have the color scheme changed to our business' color palette.  Of course, the folks at DJ said this was possible in Premiere, but weren't familiar with the process.  What is the process for changing the color scheme in Premiere Pro 5.5? (I also have Photoshop CS 5 Extended, but am unfamiliar with it, but if that would be more appropriate, please let me know what the process is.)  
    Your help is much appreciated.

    Doesn't Digital Juice give you the option of codec to render the animations to?  Mp4 seems like an odd intermediate codec for files that should have an alpha channel.  I could be mistaken, but I don't think alpha channels are supported in standard mp4.
    I thought that those animation loops should be exported form The Juicer™ as uncompressed AVI or QT files with an alpha channel for transparency. An uncompressed file will be better for changing the color palette  with premiere's fx as well.
    Solid colors will be easier to change with proc amp, color replace, fast CC, 3-way CC, tint, color balance RGB, RGB CC, etc.
    Adjusting gradients may be more of a change with those tools.

  • Is there a way to change color of dw cs4 environment?

    specifically, the tabs, if you have a few files open in DW -- the ones that are not on top at the time have a very dark gray background and black text.  They are difficult to read on my laptop - I've looked throughout the options, thought DW used to have a way to customize your desktop/view?   Can anyone help me?  Thanks.

    Unfortunately there is no way to change the color in CS4+.  If you want to see this as a feature please follow the link below and make a request:

  • Change color scheme of Terminal in XFCE4 ? *SOLVED*

    The default install of XFCE4 has a terminal with black text on white background. I find it a bit too bright, and its not as easy on the eyes as white text on black bg. When I used to use KDE, the terminal came with 'themes', one of them being 'linux colors', which I have gotten used to.
    Is there any config file I can edit / menu option to change to alter the color scheme of the XFCE4 terminal?
    (I tried xfce4rc and menu.xml, but couldn't find anything regarding color schemes in there)
    Thanks in advance.

  • [KDE 4.6] No preview when changing color scheme

    In systemsettings > appearence > color schemes when change scheme in preview area dysplayed the same scheme, which current set. I test this bug in two machines. On one of them with new kde-profile.

    I noticed it too; that is, each preview shows the last active color scheme when I change it.  I've been using 4.6 since RC1, and wanted to wait and see if others had the problem after upgrading to the final release.  A bug report was file a couple weeks ago; you can view it here.

  • Changing color scheme on Transitions and Themes

    I would like to use the Newscast theme to create an iMovie; however, I CANNOT use the red color scheme for my audience.  How do I change the color scheme for the transitions?
    thanks in advance for any advise!

    …  How do I change the color scheme for the transitions?
    short answer: you can't.
    long answer: most animations and 'moving' elements within iM are realized with a technology called QUARTZ. those animations are 'hardwired' in iM. You'd need a Developer-tool, tons of expertise and have to ignore the EULA you signed on installation/usage of iMovie, changing these parts of iLife.
    I tried to change colors and fonts in some preset Titles - technically possible, but not within 'normal' usage
    Make a enhancement suggestion, allowing iM to use plug-ins, add-ons, 'Jam Packs' in future versions of iMovie:

  • Changing color scheme

    I've built a site using Gazette/elegant templates which automatically gives different pages within the site different pastel shades. I'd like to make the color the same on all the pages. How to do this?

    Welcome to the discussions, Faith.
    iCal provides no way to change the background, nor the colours of the different calendars. However, if you really really want to change the calendar colours, you could try this. I offer no guarantees that the procedure will work for you, but it worked when I tried it. I don't know if it will last across a system shutdown (though I think it will). I really don't recommend it.
    In what follows, "~" represents the "home" directory for your user account.
    iCal stores most of its information in ~/Library/Application Support/iCal. There you will find a file nodes.plist. If you intend trying this, make a copy of nodes.plist first, so that you can put it back if anything goes wrong.
    Quit iCal.
    Double click nodes.plist to open it with Property List Editor.
    Click the triangle to the left of the word Root and it will expand to several items.
    Click the triangle beside the word List and it will expand to one numbered item for each of your calendars.
    Click the triangle beside one of them and it will expand to show several items, one of which is ThemeColor. The value of this is eg "#F57802FF" where the F5, 78, and 02 are the hexadecimal codes for the amount of red, green and blue in the colour. You can double click the #F57802FF (or whatever) and change the codes, then use File/Save (you may need to use File/Save as) to save it.
    Quit the editor and restart iCal.
    You will have noticed that the first item in each of the sets for a calendar is called Key, with a value like 0DC6809C-287F-46BB-9F72-18B7A971D5C1. If you want to know which of the numbered items corresponds to which named calendar, you will have to look in ~/Library/Application Support/iCal/Sources. There you will find one folder for each calendar, named with the value of the key. Open a folder and double-click its info.plist. Click the triangle beside Root and you will see the Title (name) of the corresponding calendar.

  • 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:
    <p>This is a normal paragraph</p>
    <p class="red">This is a red paragraph</p>
    <p>This is a normal paragraph with <span class="red">some red text here</span> but not here.</p>
    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.

  • Simple way to change color of field in an interactive report

    Is there a simple way with css to change the color of a field in an interactive report. I want certain fields to stand out.
    Can you provide an example and where the code is inserted in APEX? TY.

    The appearance of cells based on the report structure can be controlled using CSS: +{message:id=10373505}+
    Conditional formatting based on cell values is better handled using the built-in highlighting, or Dynamic Actions/JavaScript, which provide better separation of concerns than generating HTML in the query: +{message:id=10493230}+
    (For even better separation, use the Dynamic Action to apply <tt>class</tt>es rather than setting style properties directly, and use separate CSS rules to apply the formatting.)

  • Easiest way of changing ProRes interlaced to ProRes progressive

    Hello,
    I have captured HDV ( 1080i ) as ProRes to edit it within Final Cut.
    Now, when video is done, I would like to leave it in ProRes, but would like to have it in progressive mode.
    So I am wondering, what would be the effective way of doing this?

    Export a Quicktime Movie from FCP. Take that file to Compressor. Find a ProRes preset that matches what you'd like, duplicate it, then in the Frame Controls tab in the Inspector, change the Output Fields setting to Progressive.
