Draw a box like PeterBreis0807 stated then select the wrap tab. Deselect Object causes wrap, change the color & size to meet your needs then change object placement from Floating to In background

  • How do I change the background color of the pages?

    I have been having trouble finding how to change the background color of the pages. I would prefer a black background.
    thanks

    Do you  know how to edit the template?   If not  simply  choose a rectangle shape, change colour to Black and using ARRANGE, send to back and  bring forward till it replaces whatever is there.
    The best way is to  pull down the book slide to reveal the Layout - which shows you the chapters and section etc  which make up a template.  You have to  use the same procedure on ever page from the template you intend to  use.
    In the Template Layout, select  your page. Click on whatever your background colour is...IF its unlocked you see the  square pull handles in corners - now simply select Black and it should change the colour - if not and its unlocked, it  may be a black image, in which case delete it, Insert a new rectangle, pull to  fit the  page and change colour to  black. It should now be hiding  the other content, ARRANGE > Send to Back and it should sit  behind all your content. Now go back to arrange and LOCK.
    You should see a red marker on  the left with whatever page you are editing "Save Changes" click it and its done... repeat on all other pages.

  • How to set full screen background color in new Pages

    I just updated to Mavericks and the new Pages...I often use a certain background color when I work in full screen mode, but that color is gone withe the upgrade and I don't see how to specify a color any longer...any ideas?
    Thx.

    Given over 90 removed features in Pages 5, I guess they were busy "not noticing" a lot more than the background color:

  • How do you change the background color of a page in projects

    I'm making a new photo book in projects.  the theme I've selected has black pages.  I would prefer white pages but can not change the background or I would like to change the theme without having to start all over again.  I have no change theme button in the upper right hand corner.  Any suggestions?

    Don't know what version of iPhoto you're using but in iPhoto 8 (09) we have this to change the background in the Folio theme:
    Wereas in iPhoto 9 and later we have this:
    If you don't that in the version you're using try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion delete the contents the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If you're running Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.

    How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.
    As an example, html widget has white background on iPad, and black on mac. The same goes for interactive widget.
    The MathType text inserted is inserted as a image, and will have the same color when in fullscreen as when not. So I need the textcolor to be the same in both views. Anyone know how to fix this?

    We're still not communicating. This is why I wanted an example .iba.
    Here's a re-creation of my own, going off what you described. You said "all html widgets and all gallery widgets" have this problem. So I inserted a blank HTML widget and a blank Gallery widget, and typed into both. Inserted a MathType equation into both. I don't see any difference when I preview it on my Mac compared to the preview on the iPad. I want to help, but I can't help if I can't duplicate the issue.
    I've attached the screen shots and the .iba file [link to .iba file].
    Feel free to email me directly at bobm at dessci dot com. If you're uncomfortable giving some information here, tell me anything you want in email. I work for the "MathType company", Design Science.

  • How can i make a background color linear?

    i want to put a background color have a linear effect, but im not sure how to do that. i want it so that it will fit the entire browser screen. i dont know a lot about backgrounds, i know that i can make a background color fill the entire browser and make a image repeat itself to fit the browser, but thats all i know.

    WOW...this is exactly what i have been searching for over tha last 2 weeks but i finally found out how to do it perfectly.
    I found the solution after analyzing a site i visited that had the effect i wanted.
    Herez a sample of the page i created with the effect...exactly as you drew it....but with diferent colours,lol.
    http://edutchz.freehostia.com/sample/
    I have also attached bg.jpg with this post as well as the CSS i used; but to see them in action use the above link
    Now all u need to do is create a sinlge strip of image....say 1000px wide by 10px high. On both exterior sides of this image place your linear colurs from outside inwards to cover say 100 or 150px....now do this exactly on the other side.....this will leave a central region with white colour.
    Now name it bg,jpg.....use CSS to place it on your page....in my case;
    body { margin : 0px;
    background-color: #eeeeee;
    background-image:
    url(bg.jpg);
    background-position: top center;
    background-repeat: repeat-y
    also change the background-color to one that nearly matches your linear img color.
    Hope this helpd

  • In Aperture, how do you put a background layer behind text?

    How do you put a background layer behind the text to offset the color of the pic from the text color? Right now, some pics have whites and blacks that drown out the text, making it hard to read...

    I forgot: if you rather want to add a background instead of changing the color of your text:
    To add a background behind a texbox,
    simply edit the layout (Click "Edit Layout", click "+") and add a Photo Box;
    drag the PhotoBox behind your text field.
    click "edit content" and add a picture to the background box.
    You'll need to import a suitable background photo, or crop some suitable background from one of your images.

  • How do you change the background color not of the video clip, but the background the clip is on?

    How do you change the background color upon which the clip resides...
    I don't want to change anything within the clip itself, but the matte(?)
    from black to white or cream.
    I am working with Elements 10...

    Create a color matte of the desired color and place it on video track 1.  Then place your video on track 2.
    from here: Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Creating specialty clips
    Create a colored matte for a background
    You can create a clip consisting of a full‑frame matte of solid color, which you can use as a solid background for titles or animated clips.
    Brightly colored mattes can serve as temporary backgrounds to help you see transparency more clearly while you adjust a key effect.
    Click Project Assets. 
    In the Project Assets panel, click New Item from the panel options and choose Color Matte. 
    Choose a color in the Adobe Color Picker dialog box, and click OK. 
    A color matte clip is placed into both the Project Assets panel and the Expert view timeline.

    Hi,
    We almost had the same requirement, but we just needed to color a specific column.
    Here goes the solution to that, you might do the same for your row highlighting
    Changes are required in jsff and one method to be added in backing bean
    1. JSFF :
    <af:column headerText="Amount"
                     id="c4" width="100"
                     inlineStyle="#{backingBeanScope.BackingBean.cellColor}">2. Backing Bean
    //searchResultTableVO is Table's VO
    public String getCellColor() {
          FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
          ExpressionFactory ef = ctx.getApplication().getExpressionFactory();
          ValueExpression ve = ef.createValueExpression(ctx.getELContext(), "#{row}", FacesCtrlHierNodeBinding.class);
          FacesCtrlHierNodeBinding node = (FacesCtrlHierNodeBinding)ve.getValue(ctx.getELContext());
          Row row = node.getRow();
        if(row.equals(searchResultTableVO.getCurrentRow())){
    //You can add your inline style for font-style too
          return "background-color:Red;";
             return null;
      }Hope this is helpful :)

  • How do I change the background color of a row in a table indicator?

    Hello,
      How do I change the background color of a row in a table indicator? I know how to change the background color in a active cell, but that is not what I want. My first intent is to make the background color of the first row a unique color, such as green, just to highlight the top row of the table.
    Regards,
    Kaspar

    I have done this before by using a for loop to change the active cell of a row in order to give the appearance that the whole row is turning the color at once.
