How can I change the UI colour of a selected layer in PS CS5.5?

Hey,
Just wondering how to change the colour of the selected layer in the layers pallete? It's quite annoying the way it is (Dull grey/blue) and sometimes hard to see what layer's selected?
I prefer the brighter blue on my other computer!
Any tips much appreciated

Oh, i missed that you said cs5 and not cs6?

If it's cs5, did you try changing the highlight color in the system preferences either under Appearance or General?

    In Pages when I go to FIND how can I change the highlight colour of the found word?  At the moment it is a very pale grey and not easily seen.

    Well, it might depend on the nationality of your keyboard, but on my US keyboard, the tilde ("squiggle") is above the TAB key; on a Mac, ⌘-TAB cycles through the active applications and ⌘-tilde cycles through the windows in the front application.
    When you do a Find, Pages selects an instance of your search text (the next one after the current selection, I think, but I didn't check that). It doesn't make the document window the front window, though. If you click in the window to bring it to the front, it moves the selection (or insertion point) to wherever you click unless you click on or above the ruler. Try clicking at the top of the document window after you do a find; say somewhere near the document name. Now you should see the highlighted selection (your search text). If you click back on the Find window, the selection will go grey again, unless you hold ⌘ down while clicking.

    how can i change the background colour of all old folder windows at once?

    There are, however, thousands of calendar apps available in the App Store. They use the same data that the built in app does. Perhaps one would better meet your needs.

  • How can I change the grey colour of all window headings they're too hard to see?

    how can I change the grey colour of all window headings they're too hard to see?

    Hi Chris,
    The only way that I know of to change the colour of the window headings, these,
    is in the System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing > Display and change the White on Black settings, using grey scale in there to helps, but it also opens a hole lot of other issues as it reverses all colours throughout the system. You can switch it back and forth as shown on this setup screen.
    Other than that, maybe changing the screen resolution so that all items are larger or zooming the screen when you require it by holding the Control button and scrolling the mouse or two finger scroll on the trackpad.
    There may be, of course, a third party app that changes the colours by searching google.
    Hope this helps

  • How can I change the background colour when working on a doc in full screen view (pages)?

    Recently I have been working on docs without the distraction of having to see my desktop around my page file by using the full screen view in pages. I do find the contrast to an all black screen too harsh though and it makes my eyes more tired than seeing the clutter of my desktop around the page. Is there any way I can change the background colour?
    Any help much appreciated!

    When you are in Full screen mode move the cursor up to the top to show the Format bar. Then look to the far right. There you'll see Background  and a rectangle. Click on the rectangle and change the colour.
    For information on Pages download the Pages User Guide from your Pages Help menu.

  • This should be easy! How can I change the background colour of my fields?

    Apologies if this has already been posted but nothing has come up via Google nor the Forum search.
    I'm sure this should be easy but it's really doing my head in!
    I have a number of textboxes, dropdown lists, etc within my form - I have set Custom backgrounds on each which are visible within Design View. However, in Preview PDF all the fields have a default blue colour and only change to my Custom backgrounds when you enter the field.
    Is there a way of removing the default colouring of fields so that it's the same as my Custom backgrounds? My Custom backgrounds are 'linear to bottom' so I don't want to just set border.fill.color to one colour.
    Thanks for any help,

    Hi,
    If you include this Javascript in the docReady event of the root node (default "form1").
    app.runtimeHighlight = false;
    This will turn off the field highlight. It doesn't prevent the user from turning back on the highlight, but it will mean that your form opens with the highlight off.
    Hope that helps,

  • How can I change the import options for an Excel table in InDesign CS5.5?

    Hi,
    I have a problem with an InDesign script that works this way in ID CS4 and ID CS5, but stops working in ID CS5.5.
    What the script should do, is to change the import preferences for a table saved in an Excel file so that I can place an unformatted table into a new textFrame in my InDesign document. The Excel document is an .xlsx-File.
    function setExcelImportPrefs() {
        with (app.excelImportPreferences) {
             app.excelImportPreferences.tableFormatting = TableFormattingOptions.excelUnformattedTable;
    What the script does (or at least seems to do) is: nothing. The table that is placed into the textFrame by the script is always formatted, as this seems to be the standard preference of InDesign CS5.5 for importing tables out of excel files.
    Does anybody have a hint for me how to make the script work in ID CS5.5?

    Okay, now it is working. I had to save the XLSX-file into the older XLS format, but that seems to work quite well.
    But I won't ever understand why InDesign loses its backward compatibility from one version to the other.
    Thank you, -hans-.

  • The blue background colour is not shown with my client, so how can I change the frame colour of a field?

    Hey,
    I do have a problem, my client does not see the blue marked background fields in my form. He uses the version Acrobat X1, 11.0.10. I do see it with my Acrobat Pro and the Acrobat Reader version. Now I wanted to highlight the fields with a colour or a frame colour, but I can't select any of it. I don't want to mark the fields in Indesign and then put form fields in Acrobat over it. But I don't know any other way. I'm working on a Mac, my clients uses Windows.
    Can you please help me out?
    Thank you so much,
    Anna

    They can enable it by going to Edit - Preferences - Forms and clicking the "Show border hover color for fields" box.

    Someone else in the forum told me how to do this.  If you have Onyx on your system then select Parameters, iTunes and turn off high contrast mode.  If you don't have Onyx, I'd suggest getting it.  It is freeware and used to help maintain your system.  Good luck

  • How can I change the colour of an iCal calender on the iPhone?

    I looked into this before, and at the moment there is little you can do to customize the inputrender tag, short of subclassing it and adding the functionality you require

  • How can I change the background color of my podcast's iTunes page?

    My RSS feed just got accepted but now I need to customize the title, author, background color, and logo of my site. Does anyone know how to do this? Thank you!

    You can't change the background colour - it's white for audio and black for video. The other data can be changed by changing the appropriate tag in the feed, or if you're using a program or online service to make your podcast,. wherever they provide for entering this information.
    The title is carried in the 'title' tag; the author in the 'itunes:author' tag, and the 'podcast image' which appears on the Store page in the 'itunes: image' tag. Republish the feed after making the amendments: it will take a couple of days for the new data to appear, though the image may take several days.
    The image which appears in some podcasts in the bottom left-hand corner of iTunes when subscribing is not referenced in the feed but has to be actually embedded into the media file: please see this page:
