How do you change the dashboard background in os x mavericks?

How do you change the dashboard background in os x mavericks? plz help!!!

I just discovered this by mistake.
Select the picture you want as background, and in the Services menu (or contextual menu) choose "Set Desktop Picture". Then immediately switch into the Dashboard while this command is being processed.
I was trying to change my regular desktop but discovered this changed the Dashboard background instead. I presume it is because Dashboard is considered a Space and different Spaces can have different Desktops.

  • How do you change the slide background colour in the keynote app?

    How do you change the slide background colour in the keynote app?

    You can't (not in Keynote for iOS). The background color is a function of the template selected when you create the file initially and cannot be altered. the only workaround I know of is to add a graphic file to the slide and position it behind all other content, but this would need to be repeated on any slide you wish to "recolor".

  • Can you change the dashboard background?

    Hi, Is it possible to change the background of the Dashboard to a picture fron the photo library?

    Yes it is, actually not too complicated.
    Simply find another picture that you like (in png format) duplicate it. You need two of the same picture.
    Name one dbgrid.png and name the other [email protected]
    Drop those into the folder: system/library/coreservices/Dock (right click and click show package contents)/contents/resources. You will have to input your password to verify.
    Then open Terminal and type:" killall Dock " (no quotes) and return.
    A three finger sweep up should show you your new dashboard background.

  • How do you change the black background in full screen edit?

    I want to change the background colour in fullscreen edit from black to white. Can this be done?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    No. The general theory is that the pics are easier to edit against black.

  • How do you change the background color not of the video clip, but the background the clip is on?

    How do you change the background color upon which the clip resides...
    I don't want to change anything within the clip itself, but the matte(?)
    from black to white or cream.
    I am working with Elements 10...

    Create a color matte of the desired color and place it on video track 1.  Then place your video on track 2.
    from here: Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Creating specialty clips
    Create a colored matte for a background
    You can create a clip consisting of a full‑frame matte of solid color, which you can use as a solid background for titles or animated clips.
    Brightly colored mattes can serve as temporary backgrounds to help you see transparency more clearly while you adjust a key effect.
    Click Project Assets. 
    In the Project Assets panel, click New Item from the panel options and choose Color Matte. 
    Choose a color in the Adobe Color Picker dialog box, and click OK. 
    A color matte clip is placed into both the Project Assets panel and the Expert view timeline.

  • How do you change the opacity of a button when it is rolled over?

    I have the button created i am not trying to change the background or anything. I wanted to know how do you change the opacity for the over state of a button? by the default i have it set to 70% opacity i want to change the over state to 100%

    You'll need to leave the overall opacity of the button symbol at 100%, then modify the opacity of each state (up, over, down, etc.) individually. The individual states cannot override a symbol setting. For instance, if your symbol was set to 50% opacity, setting the over state to 100% would only give you 100% of 50% opacity.
    Make sense?

  • How do you change the color of the title text?

    The main title text for the tap your currently on shows up centered one line above the tab row. The default is black text, with a gray drop shadow, but that doesn't work with dark background themes/personas. How do I go about changing that text color so that its visible on a dark background. I've tried changing font stylings in general for the browser, and I've tried changing the color values in the about:config for the persona, but none of that works. How do you change the color of the title text?

    That colors option under content doesn't change the color of the title text, but thanks anyways

  • How do you change the timeline duration in Photoshop CC?

    There seems to be 5 second limit on the duration of the timeline in Photoshop version 2014.
    How can you extend the duration of the animation? There's a timeline window, but no "animation" window as mentioned in many of the help files.
    How do you change the duration in Photoshop  2014?
    I'm using Windows 8.1 as my OS.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply, but my point was not about the lack of creating animations.
    It seems that in Photoshop CC, you cannot change the duration of the timeline unless you click on the end of a clip and drag it out which will then give you more time.  As the original post mentioned, you automatically get a 5 second duration unless you have a video clip that is of longer time.  This all makes sense for videos, I understand that nobody (usually) wants to stretch video.  Video by nature will extend the timeline based on how much footage is present.
    Now take an animation scenario where you want to create something from scratch that spans longer than the default 5 seconds.  There is no option!!! No document settings, nothing that will allow you to extend the timeline.  I now have to click and drag each layer clip on the timeline to give it more time for the animation, one by one might I add (you can't even highlight multiple clips and extend them all at once, which is crazy).
    So what does this mean?  Well if you create a mockup of something with all of these intricate layers including backgrounds, copy etc. and you only intended to animate a certain piece for say 8 seconds, you'll have to extend each and every single layer clip in the timeline otherwise they will magically disappear and the only thing displaying is that which you have extended manually.
    The reason why you need a document settings in the timeline is to prevent content from disappearing if something extends for a certain amount of time.
    Frame by frame animations only allow for so much functionality, try to animate multiple objects at once with frames and go back and make a change to one part...
    CS5 would simply show everything regardless if they did nothing on the timeline, it allowed you to see all of your elements present.
    Again, I stand by my statement saying that the new timeline is flawed.

  • How do you change the tab outline color

    How do you change the tab outline color?  I wish to use a black style on my test program but the tab features have a white edge on the top and left sides to try and give a 3d look.  I've tried playing with the windows style but had no success.  Does anyone know how to remove this or change the color?  The closest I have got so far is setting a windows 7 basic theme which removes the 3d look.  This does however give a white background on the tab pages which I cannot find a way of changing in either CVI or windows.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Chris,
    Unfortunately, this border is only customizable through the Windows theme. Changing the theme to the basic is likely going to be the closest to what you are looking for without creating a custom theme for Windows.

  • How do i change the gray background to an image of my choice

    how do i change the gray background to an image of my choice when exporting an swf in indesign cs6. i want like the wooden destop look behind my flipbook. please help.

    appletv play audio out of optical out of hdmi and the old alu one play out the RCA too
    the typical the white and red plug ins would be RCA if you have a atv2 (the black one) you cant use
    RCA as that is analog and optical and hdmi are digital
    you can get converters but some would be pricy and could cause delay between image and pictures for video
