How do I fill a paragraph with color in Pages 5?

I recall a feature in previous versions of Pages which allowed a color (or texture) fill of a paragraph.  Is this feature missing from the new Pages 5.2?
I do find the fill feature for a Text Box, and the color options for text, but not  paragraphs.  At least it's not obvious in the Inspector, is it hiding somewhere on a sub menu?
Thanks for your help.
George

A useful artifact in Pages ’09, but not in Pages v5.2. Select your paragraph text. Use the Character Fill Color option from the included screen grab.
If you want to place a color behind the entire paragraph block, and not just the text:
Format > Text > Layout > Background Color gives the following:

  • Photoshop CS6 - How can javaScript fill blank layer with color?

    Hello,
    I'm a production artist and I work with PSD files that were created in Adobe Scene7 Image Authoring Tool. These PSDs contain a background layer along with 1-20 alpha channels. My script has to make new blank layers based on the number of alpha channels and then it has to fill the new layers with light gray. The RGB values are 161, 161, 161. I checked the PSCS6 JavaScript Reference pdf, but I don't see a method that would do this for artLayers. (Let me also say that I'm new to javaScript).
    Does anyone know how to fill a blank layer with these RGB values?
    Here's my script so far:
    #target photoshop 
    // declare variable to contain the active document
    var myDoc=app.activeDocument;
    // declare variable to contain the number of alpha channels, excluding the RGB channels
    var alphaChan = myDoc.channels.length - 3;
    // create loop to make new layers based on number of alpha channels and fill each layer with gray
    for (a=0; a<alphaChan; a=+1){
    myDoc.artLayers.add();
    if (myDoc.artLayers.length == (alphaChan + 1)) {
        break;

    var color = new SolidColor();
    color.rgb.red = 161;
    color.rgb.green = 161;
    color.rgb.blue= 161;
    myDoc.selection.fill(color);

  • Filling an outline with color

    I'm using Illustrator CC.  When I draw an outline with either the pencil tool or the paintbrush tool, I can't fill it in with color, even though the path appears to be closed.  The "fill" square has a red diagonal line through it and won't switch to a color.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,  Ann

    Red slash is nothing to worry about, that just means measn fill of none.
    Make sure you have the path selected, and then try using the appearance palette instead to fill. You can either click on the arrow and do a dropdown as in the screenshot. Or as you can see the fill is highlighted (light blue running in back of the word Fill) and then click on a swatch in swatches.
    You can also double lcikc on the pencil tool, adn enable fille new pencil strokes.
    which will then use your fill and stroke colors.

  • How to use Two main windows with in a page in script ?

    Hi any body explain me...
    How to use Two main windows with in a page in script ?
    with  header data in one main window,
    & Item data in other main window.

    HI..,
    u need to go for <b>SPLITTING THE MAIN WINDOW</b> !!!
    Main windows in page windows allow you to format text in multiple columns. Define an area in the page window, in which to position the main windows.
    Here is the procedure !!
    -->Create a page window and assign it to a page.
    Choose <b>Edit --> Main windows</b>.
    A dialog box appears.
    -->Enter values in the fields <b>Area width</b> and A<b>rea height</b> in accordance with the input guidelines for main windows.
    -->Enter values in the fields <b>Spacing</b> and Number in the <b>Horizontal group</b> if you want to use multiple columns. You can ignore the fields in the Vertical group.
    Determine how many columns and line areas are required for label printing. Then enter the corresponding values in the fields in the <b>Horizontal and Vertical groups</b>.
    -->The value in the field Left margin varies from main window to main window if multiple columns are used. The following applies:
    <b>
    Left margin of current column + Window width + Horizontal spacing = Left margin of next column</b>
    In label printing, the field Upper margin also varies from main window to main window:
    <b>
      Upper margin of current main window +  Window height + Vertical spacing = Upper margin of next main window</b>
    -->Enter a value in the field Start position.
    This is a counter. Enter a starting value which is equal to or greater than 1.
    -->The main windows are added to the list.
    -->Save your form.
    reward if it helps u...

  • How can I 'fill free space with songs' AND keep some memory free?

    I like the 'automatically fill free space with songs' option, but it leaves me with no room (or very little room) for taking photos and video.  How can I keep some memory free?

    You'll probably need to backup or clone the remaining OS X partition, definitely clone the bootcamp partition then erase and reformat the drive. You'll need a 3rd party app.

  • How can I fill a JComboBox with a ResultSet?

    I want to fill a JComboBox with the data in ResultSet. What�s the better way to do this? Can I convert a RecordSet to a Vector and use the vector in JComboBox constructor?
    Thanks for any help.
    Renato

    Prova cosi:
    myComboBox = new JComboBox();
    ArrayList items = new ArrayList();
    ResultSet result = conn.executeQuery("SELECT BLABLA FROM BLABLA");
    while (result.next())
    items.add(result.getString(1));
    result.close();
    myComboBox.setModel(new DefaultComboBoxModel(items.toArray()));
    E' molto pi� efficiente che aggiungere gli item alla combo uno alla volta.

    I'm trying to figure out how to do a network install with the latest firefox, but customized to have the default home page setup for the companies intranet web portal.

  • How to create a column graph with colors per set of values

    I need to create with Microsoft Excel, a column graph that based on different values, each column will contain different color.
    To be precise:
    E.g.:
    - Green: If it is 0
    - Orange: If it is between 0 and 10
    - Red: If it is more than 10
    I would appreciate to help me how to do this.

    Hi EriValidata,
    According to your description, I get the result as shown in the following figure.
    Is this a correct result? If yes, this is an excel chart with conditional formatting. Please try the following steps to create the chart.
    To accomplish this task, you will need to create three additional columns of data and plot those three columns of data-and not the original column of sales data – in a stacked column chart. As shown in the figure.
    And the formula in C2 is: =IF(AND(B2>0,B2<=10),B2,0). The formula shows the value in column C if it falls between the limits in rows 0 and 10; otherwise it shows 0. The formula is filled into the range C2:E4.
    Then we select the source data with A2:A4 and C1:E4, as shown in the figure to insert a column chart. The chart now shows 3 sets of colored bars, one for each data range of interest.
    And I upload a TEST2.xlsx file on OneDrive, you can download this file via this link:

  • How do I get a fill to expand with an expanded page size?

    You can look at the site for reference.  It's still in very rough form.  Home.
    The gray weave that you see is a box fill on the master page.  I have the fill set to tile horizontally and it fills just fine.  The problem is that other pages are set to be longer than the master, like the About page.  How can I get the texture to fill completely as the length of the page varies?  Is that possible?

    Hi
    Using a box fill with image will not expand automatically if page length increases. You would need to use the image as Page fill which would appear same for any page length.
    The gray image (cotton texture) can be used as page fill and heading "Utah Nahro" with mountains image can be used as box fill pinned on header of page.
    Thanks,

  • Fill table cells with color % depending on cell content

    Hi.
    I'm working on a document with a lot of tables filled with percentages. The tables are originally on a Word document and the table cells are tinted according to their content: a value of 20% on the cell corresponds to a tint of 20%. This is done automatically on the Word document through a conditional formatting option that applies a graded color scale. Is there any way to do this in InDesign? I tried placing the tables and tried all options, but the color is not imported. Perhaps a script or a GREP style?
    Thank you.

    Conditional formatting in Word is done via formula, but in Excel it is handled more "on the surface" and Excel's conditional formatting carries into InDesign nicely via Place or Paste. It could be worth considering moving those tables into Excel.
    InDesign doesn't do this kind of formatting as a native function, but it couldn't hurt to ask about possible scripted solutions in the Scripting Forum.

  • Fill multiple layers with color (CS3)?

    Using Photoshop CS3
    I created a button set for a web forum. Each button is in its own group. Each group contains a text layer and a base layer. And each button appears to be next to each other, even though they are on different layers in different groups. This allows Photoshop to slice things up as different buttons when I save to web or devices.
    Here’s my quandry. The buttons are 1 solid color with 2 borders. I want to replace the button color on all buttons, but leave the borders alone. Using Magic Wand set to Sample all Layers I can get a marquee that appears to select all the areas on all the layers. But when I use the bucket tool to replace that color on all layers, it won’t do it. It puts all the color on the top layer – even though I have the bucket tool set to All Layers.
    Is there a way to fill all the layers in the way I want.
    By the way, I thought of using a color overlay on each button, and then I could simply copy the style to all the base layers. But see no way to also have two independent strokes for the two outline colors. On the other hand, if you know of some better way to do any of this, please let me know.

    I'm sorry. I intended to mention that Fill doesn't work either, but it looks like I left that out. Using the Fill command places all the color on the top layer only. I also tried using Select Similar along with Bucket or Fill to select the base layers, but that didn't help.
