How can I change the color of a title background?

Hi,
I am using the green background for my titles, but would like to make it a darker green. Is there a way to use the color palette to change the shade of the background color?
Thanks!

haven't found this option yet, but would be a nice-to-have feature:

workaround for now:
use any paint app on your Mac (Photoshop/Express, Pixelmator, Graficconverter, 'abuse' Keynote, ... ) to create a background of your likes&needs. import that jpeg into iM, add title..
this technique allows very unique and individual titles, far beyond iM's limitations.
using 'external' apps for creating titles allows even 'impossible' effects as pictures in scrolling titles, read Aaron's advice (his site is worth a read..) :

  • How can I change the color of a title bar?

    Ok, I have been looking for this answer for over a week now and nobody
    has yet given me an answer that works. So I am going to ask again.
    Here is a piece of code you can run to see what I am trying to do:
    public class RemoteDisplayFrame extends JFrame {
    public static final Color GRAY70 = new Color(179, 179, 179);
    public RemoteDisplayFrame() {
    super();
    public RemoteDisplayFrame(String title) {
    super(title);
         public void setBorderContent() {
    this.setUndecorated(true);
    JRootPane rootPane = this.getRootPane();
    rootPane.setWindowDecorationStyle( JRootPane.PLAIN_DIALOG );
    this.setRootPane( rootPane );
    public static void main( String [] args ) {
    RemoteDisplayFrame frame = new RemoteDisplayFrame( "Test Frame" );
    frame.setBorderContent();
    frame.pack();
    frame.show();
    Run this code and you should get a frame on your screen that has no
    close buttons, minimize buttons, or maximize buttons, and no menu.
    I want to change the title bar's color to a specific color.
    That color is GRAY70:
    public static final Color GRAY70 = new Color(179, 179, 179);
    If you have any idea on how to do this please do tell.

    AFAIK, you can't. I believe the title bar is rendered by the operating system, using the colors the user has chosen, consistently for all windows. Frankly, if your app could, it would annoy me, as I would still want all my windows to look consistent.

  • How can i change the color of the text on a button in Roll Over or Click state (Cs5.5)

    Hello,
    Here is the problematic:
    1° How can i change the color of the text on a button in Roll Over or Click state (Cs5.5)
    - I've many button in a doc im creating
    - the color of the buttons is white with black stoke & black text
    - in roll over state i want them to inverse the color coding (the text white & bottom black)
    - currently the text becomes invisible as black on black cant be seen (ive stroked it white but that looks ugly)
    - i would just like to know if there is a function made for this?
    My other questions:
    2° Ive a presentation on which Ive created buttons which tigger pop-up animations
    - i have 5 buttons which trigger animations
    - the viewer can chose to Click on any of the buttons randomly
    - the problem is once the animation is open how can it be close... either:
    a) by it self after "40" seconds
    b) when ther viewer clicks another button
    3° Ive created buttons linking pages..
    - "go to page xxx"
    - when i do a preview and click on the buttons the links dont take me to the right pages
    - is that normal? (maybe in preview its suppose to be like that)
    4° I would like to intergrate YouTube videos in the presentation so they play inside the docment.. when i tried.. it said the 'link isnt a flash video'
    - what should i do?
    5° Once i export it into Swf. how how can i visualize it? or put it online?
    Thank you for your time.

    You should setup Object Styles - these can also include Paragarph Styles that can be triggered when the Style is selected.

    I'm not sure what you mean - I don't do files with Animations

    - when i do a preview and click on the buttons the links dont take me to the right pages
    - is that normal? (maybe in preview its suppose to be like that)
    Does it work properly when you export it to the finished file?
    4° I would like to intergrate YouTube videos in the presentation so they play inside the docment.. when i tried.. it said the 'link isnt a flash video'- what should i do?
    InDesign won't link directly to youtube videos. I think your best bet would be to use Downloader to download the video and embed them directly in Indesign.
    5° Once i export it into Swf. how how can i visualize it? or put it online? 
    Thank you for your time.
    You can look up how to embed a SWF file into your HTML - but it depends what you mean by "online" there's a dozen ways to get a file "online".

  • In working on a simple home budget,  how can I change the color of a negative number to red,  during the period the number is negative.    Thanks,

    Using Numbers spreadsheet and In working on a simple home budget,  how can I change the color of a number to RED when it  comes up negative.  (only during the time that it's negative)  Thanks,  ( I hope I did this right!!) 

    The Inspector offers choices of format for negative numbers when you choose Number of Currency as the format for a cell. Also offered when the format is set to Automatic, IF the selected cell(s) contain number(s).
    The choices are in the pop-up menu beside the box for number of decimal places.

  • How can I change the color of birthday calendar?

    The birthday calendar in the new iPhone OS gets it color automatically. How can I change the color? It does not correspond to the color in iCal on my Mac.

    I figured out a solution for changing the other calendars but not the birthday calendar. Although it's not the most direct fix, it worked for me. Apparently Apple didn't think to give us the ability to choose the calendar color. I use Entourage and sync over the air. When I upgraded to iOS 4 my calendar turned bright red and the birthday calendar was blue. I don't use the birthday calendar so it isn't even enabled in my case. What finally worked was to go through the calendar colors one at a time by disabling and re-enabling the calendar in my mail account settings. I would double click the home button to quickly switch between settings and calendar to check the color each time I enabled the calendar. I had to do this 4 or 5 times to cycle through until blue came back up.

  • How can I change the color of a box in book layout?

    I am try to change the color of a photo box when making a book.
    Will the box print? and if so how can I change the color
    Thank you
    Mark

    The box will print... but there is no way to just assign a color to a box. The closest you can get is ot create a small solid colored image in Photoshop and assign that to the box. You may get a resolution warning but as long as it's a solid color it does not matter how few pixels you have.

  • How can i change the color of the graph in agreement of the program's condition

    Hi,
    I am using labview 5.1 in my graduation's project final. (sorry by my english, but i am ina hurry)
    How can i change the color of the graph in agreement of the program's condition?
    I am developing a VI to control the temperature of termistors,but i have another sensor too.
    In a graph i have the situation of the termistors,but i want to change the color of the graph when the sensor is active.
    Thanks a lot

    To change the color of the line itself, you can use the attribute Plot>>Plot Color.
    To change the color of the points, you can use the attribute Cursor>>Cursor Color.
    To select the color, you should have a color box constant inside the Numeric>>Additional Numeric Constants palette.
    This is all in LV 7.0. I'm not sure how it similar it is in 5.1.
    One important thing is to place the attribute node inside a case structure which will execute only when your condition has been filled.
    If this didn't help you, I suggest you post the relevant piece of code, or at least an image of it (no BMPs, please).

  • How can I change the color in this "pieces"

    Hello guys, I'm new in the forum and I'm searching for help.
    I'm using a free template that I downloaded from
    the internet but I'm having a small problem.
    When I put the logo that I want use in the template, the color is not the original one,
    after some minutes trying to discover how I could change it to the original version of the logo, I found an option on "fill" with a color that I could change..
    the problem is that when I change the color, all the logo changes in the same time, so I created 2 logos.. one of then only with the dark color and the other with the red color
    so with this method I could change both colors on this "fill" option and all would be okai.
    the problem is that both of the logos are changing in the same time.
    I need to change the X to RED and the Moto to Black
    Another problem that I have is : the little pieces of the logo that come all togheter, they are all black.. and i need to change it to the right color.
    cause the text are in one color and the pieces are all black.

    I did it, but i saw that Fill effect is a little "Shadow" behing the text... just for a small white line... I'm almost done with this intro, now I'm trying to find out how can I change the color from the X and MOTO
    cause when I change the color, both changes, and this can't happen.
    I need the X red and the Moto dark...
    I made 2 compositions ... one with just the X  X red.. and another with just Moto in dark color... but I don't know how to put this 2 compositions in 1 composition.

  • How can I change the color of all folders from light blue to another color?

    My computer was just upgraded from Tiger to Leopard, and now all the file folder icons are pale blue on the desktop and elsewhere. My desktop is green and those light blue folders do not look good on a green background.
    How can I change the color of the folder icons to another color?

    Hi ys,
    You appear to have taken a wrong turn on the information highway and would up in the backwater known as the AppleWorks forum. This is a place for discussion of issues and techniques connected with the now discontinued Apple productivity application AppleWorks.
    Yours is a System question, concerned with how to accomplish something in the Finder, part of the Mac OS X software you recently upgraded. The question will be better served in the Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard section of discussions. The link will take you to that section, where I'd suggest using the Finder and Dock forum.

    Barry

  • How can I change the colors of a photo?

    How can I change the colors in a photo?

    No. You'd need an external editor for that kind of stuff:
    In order of price here are some suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    The Gimp (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Pixelmator ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    Of course, you may not want to change the shape of a photo which would distort it. You may want to print it in an oval shape but undistorted. I'd use a page layout app like Pages for that,

  • Array of clusters and in the cluster is a bar meter, how can I change the color individually?

    Array of clusters and in the cluster is a bar meter, how can I change the color of the bar meter individually for each element of the array?  I have just figured out that you can't change properties of one element of the array without all elements changing.  For the scaling I had to make numeric indicators for each tick of the scale so that each bar meter in the clustered array would have individual scales.  I also had to do some math to scale each barmeter to display correct proportions from 0 to 100%.  Now I'm stumped on the color of the bar meter.  Basically, if the value goes over a setpoint, the bar meter needs to turn red.  It has to be in an array to be infinitely scalable.
    Thanks
    Matt
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You can't do that-
    without a little trick.
    You could consider laying a custom color box over the bar graph in the cluster you can set the color based on the value of the bar graph or even make a "Pseudo"- bar graph using a series of color boxes stacked to look lie a bar and changing values of the Color boxs from empty to full to red.
    Here is an example to demonstrate
