Eyedropper sets Background color swatch instead of Foreground
Q: Why does the Eyedropper Tool set the Background color instead of the Foreground color when I click in my image?
A: The reason for this is that the Background swatch is "targeted" to accept the color information passed on by the Eyedropper Tool when you use it to sample a color. You can reset the behavior by clicking on the Foreground swatch in your Colors Palette/Panel. See the image below:
http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-1902897-1946/Eyedropper-Focus- Infographic.png
No matter which swatch is targeted, you can choose to temporarily sample color into the other swatch by holding down the Option key (ALT on Windows) while you sample with the Eyedropper Tool.
If you'd like to have the current Foreground and Background colors (as displayed in your Toolbox) switch places, simply tap the 'X' key on your keyboard.
Finally, to reset the Foreground and Background swatches to their default of black and white, simply tap the 'D' key.
Click on Windows and color. There is a setting there to change from
foreground to background. The one with the box around it is the default setting.

Why does the eyedropper tool set the background color swatch instead of the foreground?
Whenever I try to use the eyedropper tool in Photoshop CS5, the eyedroper sets the background color instead of the foreground. I know you can swap the colors with the arrows, but Photoshop used to be able to just put the color in the foreground swatch without me doing any extra manual work. How do I restore it?

How to set background color in JTF GRID
Is it possible to set background color in JTF GRID ?
Hello Pavo,
it's also possible to take the code from ebitar and use the expression within styleClass instead of inlineStyle.
E.g. you can define a custom style "StyleClassEmptyText" in your skin and set this styleclass if af:inputtext is empty.
By using style classes you can have the same style in the whole application and you are able to change this style on a single point(in the styleclass) for the whole application.

A couple of things...
Thats SQL - not PL/SQL
That is not a valid SQL statement, I'm surprised its not giving an error. Please post the exact region source.
When posting code on the forum, put {noformat}{noformat} (with the curly brackets and the word code in lowercase) above and below your code like this...
{noformat}{noformat}
SELECT *
FROM emp
{noformat}{noformat}
It will then appear like this... SELECT *
FROM emp

Set background color when condition applied
hi,
Can anybody tell me how to set background color when condition applied.
My initial plan was to highlight a specify row(Change color) when the third column of this JTable consists of OK word.
int rowCount = table.getRowCount();
for(int i=0 ;i <rowCount ; i++)
String word = table.getValueAt(i,3).toString();
if(word.equals("Word")) {
table.setSelectionBackground(Color.red);
break;
else {
table.setBackground(getBackground());

Here i will get two outputs in same excel with different spread sheets,
now i want to set background color for headers i
ex:PARTY_ID,PARTY_NAME,AGENT_ID,TYPE_LOOKUP_CODE are the headers,in excel output i want background color as blue.
Please do need full help,its urgent req.Hello,
open the file in Excel and save it, just to ensure that Excel writes all the additional stuff it thinks is necessary.
Now change the background colour of the header and save the file again but with a different name.
Open both files in a text editor and look at the differences. That's what you need to change in your code.
Alternatively you can use packages like xml_spreadsheet or ExcelDocumentType, both write the same file format that you use in your code and you don't have to reinvent the wheel.

Could set background color of scrollbar?
Hy
is it possibile set background color of scrollbar?
thanksFrom my experience on this - yes, setting the colour (or the Visual Attribute) of the Block object will determine the background colour of the scrollbar. As far as I can see, it doesn't affect anything else.
I've had to ensure all my Blocks have a background colour set (to r88g88b88), because if it's left as <unspecified>, then the background of the scrollbar will be transparent. In Client-Server 6i, this isn't too bad, as the scrollbar still has a visible 'edge', but in 10.1.2.0.2 WebForms, this edge isn't present, meaning the background of the scrollbar isn't visible at all, just the two ends and a disembodied drag button. Not the end of the world, but some users thought it looked funny. -

How do I set background color of entire page after text and photos are layed out?
Quick,
Welcome to Apple discussions.
There's no simple one-button method for changing the background color, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. You'll need to insert an object on your page, turn off wrap (from the Wrap inspector, change its color, stretch it to fit the page, then send it to the background (from the Arrange menu).
Let us know if you need more info.
