How do I change the background in the Menu bar screen area so that it is lighter and thus more readable?

The background in the area where the Menu bar now sits is jetblack.. When I drag, say, the print icon or cut, paste, save icons to sit to the right of the menu bar, they're there but either I see them only faintly (printer) or I cna't see them only faintly. How can I change the background to a lighter color (it used to be much lighter).

The easiest way might be to install a lightweight theme (formerly known as a persona). You can "shop" for one on the Add-ons site. The following link is for solid colors, but some of the pictorial ones might work, too.

You can hover your mouse over the little image tile to see how it would look if you installed it. Can you find one that looks good to you?
Much of Firefox's interface also can be modified with style rules. However, that requires a lot more experimentation, so let's come back to that only if needed.

In Yosemite, How do I change the background color of menu bar, dock and sidebar?

Right now my background for the Menu Bar, Dock, etc is RED. I'd like to change it to something more subtle.
Anyone know how?
Does it relate to the desktop picture I have? or ???

You can change the background display color in the playback preferences, either black, white, or checkerboard. This does not change the output color. If you want to add a color to the video, you have to place a custom generator underneath your video and change the color in the inspector.

Why is the background behind my menu bar see-through. Can I change this?

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 to change the background of the StackPanel control when any child element has focus?

Hello folks!
I need to change the background of the StackPanel control when any element within the StackPanel has focus. I am executing the code snippet below. The code works fine with elements within the Grid control named "main". It doesn't work when I focus
an element within the Grid control named "header".
<StackPanel x:Name="techReportStackPanel" Width="250" Background="{Binding ColorBrush}" >
<StackPanel.Style>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type StackPanel}">
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=techReportStackPanel, Path=IsKeyboardFocusWithin}" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Gray" />
<Setter Property="Opacity" Value=".5" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</StackPanel.Style>
<Grid x:Name="header">
<TextBlock x:Name="headerColumn" Text="{Binding Name}" Style="{StaticResource ColumHeader}"/>
<Button Visibility="{Binding ElementName=headerColumn, Path=Text, Converter={StaticResource delButtonVisibilityConverter}}" Command="{Binding DelCommand}" Content="x" ToolTip="{l:Translate TechReportDeleteToolTip}"/>
</Grid>
<Grid x:Name="main">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<wpftoolkit:WatermarkTextBox Grid.Column="0" Style="{StaticResource OrdinaryTextbox}" Watermark="{l:Translate LengthLabel}" ToolTip="{l:Translate BoreholeSpacingInRow}" Text="{Binding BoreholeSpacingInRow, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged, StringFormat=F2, Converter={StaticResource zeroToEmptyDoubleConverter}}" />
<wpftoolkit:WatermarkTextBox Grid.Column="1" Style="{StaticResource OrdinaryTextbox}" Watermark="{l:Translate WidthLabel}" ToolTip="{l:Translate BoreholeSpacingBetweenRow}" Text="{Binding BoreholeSpacingBetweenRow, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged, StringFormat=F2, Converter={StaticResource zeroToEmptyDoubleConverter}}" />
</Grid>
</StackPanel>
Any advice and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

>>It doesn't work when I focus an element within the Grid control named "header".
You mean when the Button in the "header" Grid is focused? A TextBlock is not focusable so when the Button is not visible no element in the "header" Grid will be focused since you only have two elements in the "header" Grid.
But when the Button is visible it should work. Please refer to the following code:
<StackPanel x:Name="techReportStackPanel" Width="250" Background="{Binding ColorBrush}" >
<StackPanel.Style>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type StackPanel}">
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=techReportStackPanel, Path=IsKeyboardFocusWithin}" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Gray" />
<Setter Property="Opacity" Value=".5" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</StackPanel.Style>
<Grid x:Name="header">
<TextBlock Text="text..."/>
<Button Visibility="Visible" Content="Button" />
</Grid>
<Grid x:Name="main">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBox Grid.Column="0">main grid...</TextBox>
<TextBox Grid.Column="1">main grid...</TextBox>
</Grid>
</StackPanel>
When the Button is focused the Background colour of the StackPanel is set to Gray as expected.
If you want to be able to focus the TextBlock you should set its Focusable property to true:
<Grid x:Name="header">
<TextBlock Focusable="True" x:Name="headerColumn" Text="{Binding Name}" Style="{StaticResource ColumHeader}"/>
<Button Visibility="{Binding ElementName=headerColumn, Path=Text, Converter={StaticResource delButtonVisibilityConverter}}" Command="{Binding DelCommand}" Content="x" ToolTip="{l:Translate TechReportDeleteToolTip}"/>
</Grid>
Hpoe that helps.

How do i turn off apps running in the background with the new upgrade?

how do i turn off apps running in the background with the new upgrade?

They changed it a bit, but you can still close apps. Double click the Home button to pull up the currently running apps. Side scroll over to the app you want to close, then swipe up on the app *window* (not the icon at the bottom).

Changing the background of the pdf form in runtime.

Dear All,
I want to change the background of the pdf form in runtime. But I don't need to change the fillcolor. I want to change the background by using the pdf file. That means I want to switch the background of the pdf form on click events.
I don't know this is possible or not.
If anybody know how to solve this problem Please suggest me.
Thank you
saroj neupane

I do not believe that it is possible.

I'm using Lightroom cc, I'm trying to create a develop preset. I'm making changes to one photo that I want to apply to many other photos, one of the changes is to blur the background using the adjustment brush. When I am blurring I am going over the photo several times, when I go to create the preset the adjustment brush is not an option to check. How do I add the adjustment brush to the develop presets. Thanks Ron.

The adjustment brush cannot be added to a develop preset.
If you can replace the adjustment brush with a gradient filter or radial filter, you can add those to a dev preset.
If a gradient filter or radial filter is not an option for you, you can at least create an adjustment preset to remember your brush settings.

As long as you have a form of payment (credit or debit card) with a USA source, and with a billing address in the USA, then you just need to change your payment information on your account to that, change your country in the store settings, and you will then be able to shop in the USA store.
Your AppleID will work in any country's store, as long as your payment source and billing addres are also specific to that country (and you are in that country as well, as there may be IP filters in place to stop use outside of the country).

How can I change one section of the document to a landscape orientation and not the whole document?

How can I change one section of the document to a landscape orientation and not the whole document?

Page Setup, including page orientation, is done in the File menu. The setting applies to the whole document. As Peter says, you can rotate the contents of a page (not including the text layer of a word processing document).
As an alternative, you could use Numbers, where Sheets are empty canvases onto which you may place images, charts, tables and text boxes, and where page orientation may be set for individual Sheets. The main tradeoff is that you lose many of the built-in word processing and page layout features of Pages.

I'd already used this standard tool (exhaustively!), but for the problem encountered it operated in Catch 22 mode - you had to do two things but neither order was permitted. I did find an answer eventually, but am not sure what it was I did that solved it! Thanks, anyway.
