How do I control the selection highlighting colors assigned to Layers?

When new layers are created in the Layers panel, they are set to a default selection highlighting color. The color for each new layer changes, sequencing through a list of color options. For my personal use, whether or not it's the lighting in my office and/or the artwork I'm working with, I find about 75% of the color options to be unusable. In fact, the only color definition that works consistently for me is 'Green' (the third option from the top of the list). I work with many layers on every project and I find myself changing every layer to Green manually. Is there an option to set the default highlighting color for every new layer to a single color rather than cycling through the list? I have looked through all the options I could find throughout Illustrator without seeing such.

Create all your layers, select the first layer, hold down shift, select the last layer, then doubleclick to change all layers at one.
Or create a template with your layers/names/colors that you want them, and save as to a .ait template format.

  • How to change the selection background color of the selected item in the popup menu of the choice box ?

    How to change the selection background color of the selected item in the popup menu of the choice box ?
    By defaut, the selection background color likes "blue", but if I want it to be "yellow" for example, how should I do ?
    Thanks

    The id is applied by (I think) the skin class of the ChoiceBox. You don't need to define it.
    You have to apply the css in an external style sheet. You can apply the external style sheet to any parent of your choice box, or to the scene (the most usual way to do it).
    Example:
    import java.util.ArrayList;
    import java.util.List;
    import javafx.application.Application;
    import javafx.scene.Scene;
    import javafx.scene.control.ChoiceBox;
    import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
    import javafx.stage.Stage;
    public class ChoiceBoxTest extends Application {
      @Override
      public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
        primaryStage.setTitle("Example 2");
        final ChoiceBox<String> choiceBox = new ChoiceBox<>();
        List<String> tempResult = new ArrayList<String>();
        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
          tempResult.add("Item " + i);
        choiceBox.getItems().setAll(tempResult);
        VBox root = new VBox();
        root.getChildren().add(choiceBox);
        final Scene scene = new Scene(root, 300, 250);
        scene.getStylesheets().add("choiceBox.css");
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();   
      public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    choiceBox.css:
    @CHARSET "UTF-8";
    #choice-box-menu-item:focused  {
    -fx-background-color: yellow ;
    #choice-box-menu-item .label {
    -fx-text-fill: black ;

    Hi,
    Let your table control name in Screen painter be TC1.
    READ TABLE TC1-COLS INTO WA_COLS (some wok area)
                 WITH KEY SELECTED = 'X'.
            IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
              CLEAR: W_DUMMY, W_COL_NAME.
              SPLIT WA_COLS-SCREEN-NAME AT '-' INTO W_DUMMY
                                                   W_COL_NAME.
            endif.
    W_COL_NAME gives you the column name.
    Hope it helps.

  • How can I control the Product Category in the Pre-select screen

    Dear ,my expert :
       I  work in ROS scenario . In my case ,the supplier can select Product Category A, Product Category B,and Product Category C when they  filled the data in the  registration scren . And the purchaser A just is responsibility for the Product Category A ,and the purchaser B ,C are the same situation .
      So ,my question is :
       1,How can I control the Product Category in the Pre-select screen? I mean that the Purchaser A can just select the   Product Category A in the Pre-select screen .
       2,You know the supplier select two category  is one BP in the system ,So if the purchaser A accepe the supplier ,the purchaser B will find the status is "accepted ",So the purchaser B will be confused about it .
       SO ,in my case ,any one has the suggestions ,any link welcome .
       Bestregards
      alex

    Hi Alex,
    As per standard SRM solution, this is not supported. Purchasers who accept new suppliers, accept them on the whole and not for any specific product category. There is no such thing as Purchaser being responsible for specific prod category in ROS.
    What you could do however is to build a custom workflow to achieve it. You could have category approvers after the purchaser has accepted the supplier. Based on the category provided by the supplier in the reg form, you could route these suppliers to appropriate category approvers.

  • How to change the Find highlight color

    I am trying to find out if there is a way to change the Find Highlight color in office 2013.
    Every time I search for a word or anything it uses a light yallow to highlight that line or word, and I woudl like to replace the yellow with like a teal or a green or some other color that I'm not using already in my Word document. This way I can find out
    were it is telling me It is because I have a lot of stuff already highlighted yallow, and when I click find and search for something in the Navigation window and it finds it. It also puts it as a lighter yellow and it confuses me.

    Hi,
    As far as I know, we can't change the highlight color when using Find in Word. The highlight color is fixed.
    As a workaround, you can try to use Advanced Find instead which will show the search result with a different color.

  • How do you change the pink highlight for the present day in calendar when in week view

    How do you change the pink highlight for the present day in calendar when in week view - OSX Maverick

    the current day was light blue in ical in 10.6 but with plenty of contrast, but I recently made the bigger leap all the way to calendar in 10.9. the choice of color is terrible for reasons such as Spile1962 puts below, but also not having any way to tweak it is terrible. I'm on a bran d new imac and can barely see a difference and frankly, while I appreciate the subtlety, I still forget to look for the darker bar across the top of the current week and day. we should be able to adjust weekend and current day bg colors.
    I went into the app's package contents in hopes that they were using a tiff/png file that I could tweak on my own but couldn't find anything for them. all the icons are there, as are the bg sets for all the little pop-ups and things, but I couldn't even find a reference to a hex color in the plist file.
    send apple feedback. I just did myself, except that Calendar hasn't made the list (yet?), only iCal up to version 4.x, and Messages is still only iChat for feedback, and some others are old as well. apparently after steve died, apple's attention to these details just died with him. it's been that long since those other apps should have been relevant on their site.

  • The 'selected items' color randomly changes and I can't figure out why.

    Hi everybody, I recently upgraded to Firefox 13, which appears to be the most stable browser version so far and I really like it. I have loved Firefox very much, having used it since somewhere between versions 2 and 3.
    After upgrading to version 13 I noticed something that annoys me quite a bit. This may have been present before but I can't remember and I did not notice until now.
    On my computer (Windows 7 x64 Ultimate) I have set the color of the 'selected items' (specifically text) to be lime green text on a slightly off black background. I chose this color scheme because it blends very well with Firefox itself (I have the NASA night launch theme), Windows Explorer, and many web pages that I have changed to a dark theme (using the Stylish browser extension). This color scheme has excellent contrast in areas with black text on a light background, as well as light text on a dark background. It has served me well.
    After upgrading to Firefox 13 I have noticed that if the web page is dark with light text, the 'selected items' color changes to lime green text on a light grey background. (Less frequently, it changes instead to off-black text on a lime green background). I have not been able to isolate the threshold where this change occurs (meaning how dark the website background needs to be /how light the text needs to be for this to happen) nor have I found a solution.
    This problem sometimes extends even to sites that have dark text on a light background: when tabs are switched, with no input fields clicked and the address bar is not clicked. This very page (Firefox support) is apparently vulnerable as well.
    This problem only happens on rendered web pages. Firefox's menus, buttons and toolbars, as well as all other programs and Windows itself, are unaffected.
    I want the 'selected items' to remain as I have set it, and not deviate regardless of the apparent contrast or color scheme of the web page being displayed.
    [Edit #1]: Interestingly, as I was copying the information from about:support I noticed that it is affected as well.
    Any suggestions? Thanks so much, and I am sorry for the long-winded description. tl;dr look at the pictures.

    It is always best to avoid making changes to the selected text colors.<br />
    Firefox uses an algorithm to check if the contrast is sufficient and will swap text and background colors if that test fails.<br />

  • How can I control the size of the af:InputText?

    Hi,
    How can I control the size of the 'af:InputText' on the UI, without using columns & rows attributes. Even though I am using width & height attributes, the changes are not getting reflected in the UI.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    It is inside a 'af:PanelBox'. So, the parent container also determines the size of the child? Here I need a create a 'pidgin chat window' kind of an interface with a fixed size top-level container, inside which I willl put all my components. The code looks something like this:

  • How can I control the order of iDVD menu items using the Arrow keys?

    I have a submenu screen containing 10 selectable buttons plus the Return Arrow button.  I have ordered all the slideshows in the correct order in the DVD map.  However, when I run the program, the arrow keys jump the selection focus in an apparently random sequence.  How can I control the order of the selection focus?
    I'm using iDVD v 7.1.2
    TIA.
    Ron

    Hi
    There is one thing You might miss in iDVD - So do I - the ability to re-arrange in the DVD map (block diagram)
    The order things will be pplayed or addrssed is same as the order each item is introduced into iDVD.
    To my knowledge ther is no way around this.

  • Change the default highlight color

    In the previous version of Acrobat, you used to be able to select a default color for highlighting. I use color-coded highlighting a lot and I can't find a way to change the default highlight color in Acrobat DC. It looks like the only choice I have is to change the highlight color of each highlight individually.  Where did the highlight color preference go?

    After changing the color of a highlight right-click it and click "Make current properties default".

  • How can I control the zoom on my mac mouse?

    How can I control the zoom function on my mouse? In the middle of working on things my hand will rub the mouse by accident and all of a sudden the context within the screen is large. I have no idea of how to work this feature on my mouse and most times to get it to return to normal, I have to escape out of the work I am performing.

    If you are pressing the "Control" button on the Mac keyboard, scrolling up will zoom in and scrolling down will zoom out. You can disable this if it annoys you through System Preferences > Universal Access. If you are using Mountain Lion, it would be System Preferences > Accessibility.
    Uncheck the in the "Seeing" or "Zoom" section that says "Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom".  It may be slightly different if you have an older OS X version. I have Mountain Lion and am going off of memory on the older versions.
