How to change graphics colour in InDesign?

I've got a frame with a grey scale picture inside (preparing a brochure, two colours: Black and any other colour of my choice).
Rather than have the picutre in black (grey scale), I want to have it in shades of the other colour that I have available. Can I do this from within InDesign?
Every month we change the colour of the brochure, so ideally I just need to double click the respective colour in Swatches and all the text items, graphic etc in the colour will change.
Thanks for your help!

You can colorize non-transparent grayscale images or bitmap mode images either by selectiing them with the direct select tool and chhosing a swatch for the fil color, or by dragging the swatch and dropping it on the image.

How to change the colour of chart in WAD.

Hi,
I have problem with web report. The web report with bar charts used to show with different colours earlier. Now when I execute the web report, the chart displays in single colour (All the rectangular bars in the charts are displayed in single colour say for example red). customer would like to see the chart with different colours. Please put some lights on it how to change the colour of chart in the report.
Thanks,
Sravan.

Hi Krish,
I have followed the steps which you suggested, but I am unable to see the changes when I execute the web report.
I could able to see the colour changes to the bars in the chart in the preview (i.e when I select the series 1 and change the colour for series 1 under Area properties). Like that I have done for all the 5 series, then I have clicked on Complete button, saved the web template and executed it, and I could able to see the changes in the preview but not in the report after execution.
I have two charts in my case, one is <b>Job function</b> chart and the other is <b>Job type</b> chart. The Job function chart is displaying with different colours from the begining, but the job type chart is displays all the columns in RED colour.
Is there any setting I need to do after selecting the colour at the series level.
Please correctt me if I am worng in doing the procedure.
Please update me how to do it...It is usefull if you can come back to me ASAP .
Thanks,
Saravanan.

How to change the colour of text property in Radio button?

Hello All,
I am having some radio buttons in my application. i want to change the colour of text property by default it is black.
Could any one please suggest me how to do it?
Thanks in advance.

Currently you cannot, it is a known (and hopefully reported, and at least addressed for next version) bug (or limitation, as they rushed to get the components out before JavaOne...).
People reported they just put an empty text and put a label beside the component. Ugly workaround (bad when the component will be complete) but if it works... :-)

How to change the colours of a vector patterned image?

Hello ,
I downloaded a vector , in both jpg and gif format today. I saved it down in Illustrator as a new swatch.
I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to change the colours in that vector/swatch?
As its jpg or gif , i am not sure whether it can be done.
Your help is much appreciated.

Just by way of hopefully-helpful general info:
I am not familiar with .eps....
Both EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) and PDF (Portable Document Format) are "meta formats." They are really not all that mysterous. Just think of them as mere "containers"--locked boxes which can contain any combination of individual vector-based, raster-based, and/or text-based objects. So merely saying you have an EPS or PDF file doesn't really tell anyone what you're actually dealing with, because saying that alone doesn't tell what kind of graphic objects the file actually contains.
Both EPS and PDF exist to "pass through" or "pass between" various softwares and/or devices graphic information which would not likely be "understood" if delivered in the native code of the program(s) which created the actual graphic objects.
Illustrator (like other similar drawing programs) is originally and primarily a PostScript-generating program for print. Both EPS and PDF are deeply related to PostScript. So programs like Illustrator can "unlock" most EPS and PDF files to get at the actual, individual objects they contain.
As already briefly mentioned, JPEG (Joint Photography Expert Group) and GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) are entirely raster-based image formats. They are just different ways to encode a single raster image in a compressed file. Both of them use "lossy" compression algorithms--to minimize the file size, they actually throw away data detail when they can. So they most often actually degrade the original (in what is hopefully "negligible" ways). So think of a JPEG (often shortened to JPG) or GIF as a single raster-based image object. A JPEG or a GIF are just two of the kinds of objects which may or may not be contained within an EPS or a PDF.
So you didn't receive "...a vector , in both jpg and gif format" because neither JPEG nor GIF can contain vector-based paths. JPEG or GIF is often used to serve as a mere rough preview of the contents of an EPS or PDF. In fact, EPS files very often contain a JPEG or TIFF (another raster-based image format) image to serve as a crude substitute preview for programs or devices which otherwise would be unable to display the real contents at all.
I downloaded a vector...
Saying "a vector" is giveaway beginner language. You didn't "dowload a vector." 'A vector' is 'a direction.' You downloaded a vector-based graphics file (but not as a GIF or a JPEG). Vector-based graphics are graphics consisting of mathematically-described curves nowadays most commonly (but not always) defined as cubic or quadratic Bezier curves. Cubic Bezier curves are the kind created by most programs like Illustrator.
So what you downloaded is typical of a stock-artwork provider:
The actual full-fidelity graphics content (objects) in EPS and PDF "containers."
Separate "dumbed down" raster images of the content in JPEG and GIF formats; usually provided so you can use them as temporary place holders or preview references.

Enhance<Adjust Color<Remove Color Cast
Look at image and try to figure out what should be white, gray,or black. Click that area with the color cast dropper. Below is a video showing how to use the color cast tool.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Roinm3J3GjI&feature=player_embedded
I think from your post that it is safe to assume that you used levels. Basically, you first click on something you know is white with the white dropper; then click on something you know is black with the black dropper; finally find something that is gray and click on it with the gray dropper. Note: You may want to go through and set target colors for the levels droppers to customize how they react. See the written tutorial links at the end of this post.
Levels is covered at about 5:15 of video in video linked below. Note: It's a Photoshop video. It works the same way in Elements.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLKc61tM5b4
The above video gives several methods. It is a Photoshop video but several of these methods can be used in Elements. Elements has a color cast tool that is not included in Photoshop so isn't covered in this. Disregard Match Color method and Curves method as Elements does not include these commands. (This tutorial also mentions using the fade command. Elements does not include this command. You can reduce the opacity of a duplicate layer on which you apply the variations command and use the layer's opacity to "fade" the result. If you go that route.)
Several Photoshop Elements videos on the subject are here:

How to Change Background Colour in Q10?

Is there a way to change background colours for Contacts and Calendar from dark to white in Q10? Thanks.

Good day
Welcome to BB forums
I don't know what you mean for contact color but here is the info for Calendar info you asked for!
Change the color for a calendar
Each calendar that you add to your device is assigned a color to help you differentiate between events. You can customize the colors of your calendars to suit your taste.
In the Calendar app, swipe down from the top of the screen.
Tap Settings > Calendar Colors.
Tap a calendar.
Tap a color.

How to change default fonts in Indesign

I've tried the usual recommended steps - open InDesign, select a font, then close the program, etc. -- but nothing seems to work. Every style reverts to MetaPlus. Help!

Respectfully, I've tried this, and I'm not looking for suggested working solutions as I have a pretty clear understanding of how to set defaults and how to utilize paragraph styles. I'm simply pointing out that contrary to what you're saying, setting the font in the character palette does NOT change the true default font in my experience (CS4, OS10.4.11). I do understand that the default is set with no documents open by then selecting the font in the character palette.
I'm attaching 2 screen shots to show you that I'm not making this up. In the first you can hopefully see I've clearly set the "default" to Arial now.
In the second I've created a new document and a new paragraph style. You can see it already considers "Arial" as deviating from the base "No Paragraph Style" and if you click on "Reset to Base" you will see that sure enough, the true default font is still Geneva (Geneva in my case as outlined in my previous post).
Generally, this isn't much of a problem. As you've all pointed out we can accept that these additions are the new default for a new paragraph style, but it really isn't changing the true default font. Depending on your working environment and the experience of the designers this may be good enough. For my environment I'm looking for the ability to change the true default font and the only solution I've come across is the one from my previous post (deleting preferences).

How to change row colour without using WDTableCellDesign

Hi
I change the row colour of my tree table depending on the level of the tree.
WDTableCellDesign doesn't have the colours that I want.
I want to use different shades of blue.
How do i do this?
I have a variable of type type com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.TableCellDesign which I change with WDTableCellDesign elements.
Is there another type that I can use?

Anton,
You may only used limited(?) set of standard table cell designs.
Alternatevily, you must create complete WD theme using Theme Editor.

How to change background colour?

Hi
I have an image with a statue and different background colours. I want to change the complete background colour around the statue in one colour for example white. I tried several times but it doesnt work. Do you have a suggestion?
Thx
Dom

Hi Dom,
You've asked about a technique that many beginner Photoshop users want to learn. The challenge is that this technique requires learning a few tools and skills before you start. I would recommend the following:
1. Learn about how to make selections. Here is an image with the blue background selected. Here's a video about making basic selections.
2. Learn about layers and masks and how they work. Below is the same image with the blue background hidden. This video teaches the basics about the Layers panel.
3. Create a new background layer to replace the old one. Below is the image with a new solid white background on the layer below the original statue layer.
Once you've learned about selections and layers, try following the technique Russell Brown uses in the video below to create a simple selection of the current background and hide it by using a layer mask. Once the old background color is hidden by the layer mask, the layer beneath is revealed and it replaces the old background.
Good luck with your project! I hope this helps.

How to change link colour in java

Hello,
Just stuck on how I would change the link colour for my twitter feed in the footer of my site, I have little to no knowledge on javascript so I'm not sure what to do. The site is at http://bit.ly/15f7ReG and the twitter is in the footer.
This is the snippet of code used to retrieve and show the tweet, not sure what to change as I want the links to be the colour pink.
<div class="one-third notopmargin">
                <h4>Latest tweet</h4>
                <div class="tweeter">
<div id="twitter_update_list"></div>

</script>
            </div><br />
Thanks in advance for any advice!

On a sidenote, you're using tons of webfonts from Google (about 27 fonts!) - this will cause a huge pageload time on your site for your visitors, thereby resulting in a considerable latency. You may want to consider removing the fonts that you're not using on the site. Also, stick to using 1 - 2 fonts at a maximum to enable higher efficiency.
