Gradient Stop Color Box DIsabled

I can't seem to get a color gradient in ID CS4, just grayscale. I go to the "New Gradient Swatch" screen, name it, select "Linear," but the "Stop Color" box is disabled. Probably something very basic I'm not doing here. I can get color on my document as basic fills, but only B&W gradients. Can anyone advise? Thanks.

Yes this is an undocumented "feature".
By clicking around I discovered you can get the color swatch selections to appear in the New Gradient Swatch dialogue by clicking the right (black) end of the grascale ramp at the bottom of box.
Note to everyone - When someone has a odd complaint it is usually not productive to merely quote from various help docs.

  • There is a way to get the color information faster than double clicking the color box?

    When I need to know, for example, the hexadecimal value of a color I need to double click in the color box in the tools palette. Okay, it's not a that hard but sometimes when I'm using the gradient tools I want to do something like hover the mouse pointer over my color I get some instant information somewhere. There is a way to do this?
    Thanks folks!

    Try the info palette (click on arrows left of Info to expand). You will just need to click once to select target item, but will not have to constantly open and close the color picker window. Pretty much same solution as expanded color palette, but you can see stroke and fill together.

  • How to disable an out of the box disable User process task  from resource?

    How should I disable the out of the box disable User process task that is assigned to a particular resource? If I disable this disable User process task, when the user is provisioned to the same resource will I be able to stop this disable User process from running?
    My requirement: I need to disable the disable user process task from three resources x, y and z. Whenever a user is provisioned to one of these resources I should stop this disable user process task an out of the box process task from running. How can this be accomplished?? Please help me out on how to configureto remove the process task in the OIM Admin console to stop the process task.

    You can avoid the disable task from triggering by removing the Disable Process Or Access to Application from the task effect drop down in the process task. But this task is triggered once the user is disabled. But still I didn't understand the exact scenario.
    By the way the disable task is triggered when the user gets disabled and not when the user is provisioned.

  • How can I make a color box indicator transparent?

    All, I would like to make a color box, which is part of a cluster in an array, transparent programmatically.  Instead of appearing transparent, it shows up with a LARGE "T" inside the color box, with a white background.  Because it is part of a cluster within an array, it will not work to use a property node... and because I would like to programmatically change the color, having it permanenty transparent (as proposed on another discussion topic) will also not work.  Can someone please help me turn a color box transparent programmatically?
    Thanks.
    Anthony

    The problem is that arrays of clusters cannot be passed into property nodes as falkpl has previously said. The attached jpeg shows how you would programmatically break the arrays into cluster, into elements, and then manipulate that color box to a transparent one. The T within the white color box indicates transparent though. If you were to attached that to a color attribute then you would see that object disappear (well I guess not since it's transparent )

  • Lightroom 5 What is the Color box for in the adjustment brush and filters

    Hi
    I am running Lightroom 5.6 although I think this has been around probably from 4.In the Basic Development module when I select the Adjustment brush, Radial filter or Graduated filter then below Defringe I get a box marked Color. What does this box do.

    Thanks for the quick reply. This is what I expected but it does not do it very well. For example If I have a light blue background and select 100% Blue in the Color box I would expect it to increase the blue but it does not really do this.

  • Color box in a 2D Array

    Hi,
    I am a beginner in Labview , i want to color a box in a 2D Array of color boxes.  So if the user clicks on a box inside the 2D array, the box will turn into a specific color. I think i need to get the column and  row of the element that has been clicked.
    Then i want to check if the box already has been turned into another color , if not i want to turn it into a specific color ( e.g. connect 4).If it already has been turned into a specific color it wont change.
    [img]http://i42.tinypic.com/dm9v9h.jpg[/img]
    thats the color box.
    So can someone please help me with this problem.
    Thx

    Here is a quick example (not at all bullet-proof, just trying to give you an idea).
    All of the squares start white.
    If a white square is clicked, it will turn red.
    If it is already red, it will stay red.
    Hope that helps getting you started.
    Edit: I forgot one quick thing. Wire a constant of 100 to the event timeout (the hourglass in the upper left corner).

    The first two problems (box cycling from element to element on page, scroll bar returning to top) can be caused by a stuck (or defective) Tab key on the keyboard. Such damage can be caused by a liquid spill; just one tiny droplet is enough to short a wafer switch under one key.
    The last issue (black box, white text - sounds sorta like a debugger window) I haven't seen, but could be caused by something similar.
    To check for that, try using a different keyboard. If you're using a wireless keyboard, turn it off and see if the oddities stop.

  • Randomized Colors are Too Dark. Questions on Color Boxes

    Hey all,
    I am attempting to change the color of the plots on a mixed signal
    graph remotely using the "color box" control which works fine; however, I
    am also setting the color boxes to a random color when the program
    first starts up which is where my problem lies.
    What I currently am doing is that I have a random number generator
    pumping out a number after which I multiply the number by 10000000, just
    to give me some colors brighter than black, and then I have that wired up to
    the color box control I am setting the random color on. The problem with
    this is that although it does produce some decent colors some of the
    colors produced are quite dark and pretty hard to see on the mixed
    signal graph.
    I could make the graph background a different color if I have to in
    order to see a majority of the colors that come out, but I would much
    rather just have the colors come out more on the bright and colorful
    side.
    So I have two questions for you guys and gals:
    1) How do the colors of the colorbox get determined using the unsigned 32 int?
    One such example of why I am confused is that the number that I have
    going in is 5726420 from the random number generator (+ being
    multiplied), but on the colorbox control the RGB value is R:87 G:96
    B:212. Why is that?
    2) Is there any kind of algorithm out there that someone has done
    that can produce values randomly that will give kind of neony colors? or
    anything semi-bright for that matter?
    Any help is very much appreciated!

    Use "RGB to color" from three random U8 (o..255) values to generate a color. (double click it to open the VI to understand the structure of the color data type )

If the number of stops is lowered, the exception occurs less often. Based on the exception, it looks like if there is a gradient with more than 12 stops, it is possible to run into this exception.

  • Creating new BAT file script to stop, restart and disable S I agent

    We have just installed BOXI3 and are in the process of updating some bat files for stopping, restarting and failover (to our backup servers)and disable services on the Central Configuration Manager.   In my old scripts we called each service  Examples (
    sc
    servername.net config "bobjspcengine" start= disabled                    
    sc
    servername.net config "BOBJWebiServer" start= disabled)
    I have a few  questions
    1.  Server Intelligence Agent... Where would I find it's name   like the BOBJWebiServer example?
    2.  If my bat file stops this agent does that automatically stop the CMS, Webi, Report services?
    3. This is for our support team in order to easliy stop Tomcat and other services for failing over to our DR sites and backups since the script automatically stops,  starts, restarts disables and enable services..., is this the best approach?   We put these bat files out on the servers and all they do is click on them to start the failover process.

    Try using
    Process Monitor for looking the key.
    For example, you may set the required value through the group policy and see what windows registry keys are changed.

  • How do I create multi colored boxes using CSS3

    OS - Windows 7 using DW Cs5.5
    I need to create a screen with lots of equally sized colored boxes with text colours that will be visible easily within them.
    I have a class set up as follows:
    .yellowbox {
        font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Grande", sans-serif;
        font-size: small;
        color: #F00;
         background-color: #FC3;
        text-align: center;
        vertical-align: middle;
        margin: 4px;
        padding: 4px;
        clear: none;
        float: left;
        height: 10em;
        width: 30%;
        position: relative;
        border: thick solid #F00;
    This displays a box that is yellow with a red border.
    With a set of 9 divs of this class, I get 9 boxes arranged as a 3x3 grid in a 960px wide container.
    How do I modify the CSS so that the background color changes with each box, and the text color is always in a color that is readable?

    First change the CSS as follows
    .box {
        font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Grande", sans-serif;
        font-size: small;
        color: #F00;
        text-align: center;
        vertical-align: middle;
        margin: 4px;
        padding: 4px;
        clear: none;
        float: left;
        height: 10em;
        width: 30%;
        position: relative;
        border: thick solid #F00;
    .yellow {
       background-color: #FC3;
    .blue {
       background-color: blue;
    Then use the following markup
