How to change the apps menu?

This is a really trivial question compared but for some strange reason the app menu that you get when you swipe right in the main menu, started showing these search letters as dividers in the app list. I think they are a horrible waste of screen space but I can't find any menu where to actually change anything.
The dividers are similar as in the phonebook but they are actually useful there since I have about 300 contacts there and only a few apps.

The letters appear when you excede a certain number of installed apps, I find them very useful as it takes me straight to youtube for example , without having to scroll through a very long list. the only way to remove them is to reduce the number of apps you have installed, it's the way the system works. Once you have a few more apps, and you will, you will find it vey useful. Or simply pin everything you use to your homescreen and scroll up and down the tiles ?

  • How to change the account setting for App Store

    My last question wasn't so clear, so I would like to post again. I want to know how to change the account setting for App Store. I have changed in the Settings but it doesn't reflect in App Store.
    Thanks,

    once you sign out just click sign in and put the new email address in the "Username" field and your correct password then click OK
    it will look like it is doing nothing but give it time and it will sign you in with the new username.
    is it possible you have multiple itunes accounts?
    when you changed your itunes account from your me.com to your gmail.com address did you change it within the itunes Edit Account Info ('Store' menu then select 'View My Account', then sign in , select edit account info) or did you just create another itunes account?
    be well

    Hi Rohan
    It does not work this way. You have to use a content editor webpart.
    See references below that might help you starting with this customisation:

  • 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 ;

  • How to change the JFrame's titlebar's icon's context menu's font?

    Hi everyone.
    I want to know how to change the font of the text that appears in the context menu originated from right clicking at the icon that's all the way to the left in the titlebar of JFrames that use the default look and feel for decoration (JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true); // which uses the Metal L&F, Ocean theme).
    I searched around and found nothing. I thought that I could use what I learned at https://forums.oracle.com/message/9221826, but I couldn't come up with something that worked.
    Thanks in advance.t

    After some more messing around, I finally made it! I like Java so much that it makes me a bit sad how hard it is to do stuff like this. Anyway, I found a method here to recursively change the font of all components from a JFileChooser, but it doesn't work on the JPopupMenu (now I know the name) that pops up from the titlebar's icon. So I messed around with that method, used some casting, and was able to change the JMenuItems' font:
    public static void setSubComponentFont (Component comp[], Font font) {
        for (int x = 0; x < comp.length; x++) {
            if (comp[x] instanceof Container) {
                setSubComponentFont(((Container)comp[x]).getComponents(), font);
            try {
                //comp[x].setFont(font);
                if (comp[x].toString().contains("JMenu")) {
                    for (Component y : ((JMenu)comp[x]).getPopupMenu().getComponents()) {
                        if (y.toString().contains("JMenu")) {
                            y.setFont(font);
            } catch (Exception ex) {}
    I was inspired to use .toString().contains() by this thread.
    I also did this with nested loops, so the path to the menu items can be seen:
    for (Component a : frame.getLayeredPane().getComponents()) {
        System.out.println(a.toString());
        if (a.toString().contains("MetalTitlePane")) {
            for (Component b : ((Container)a).getComponents()) {
                System.out.println(b.toString());
                if (b.toString().contains("SystemMenuBar")) {
                    for (Component c : ((Container)b).getComponents()) {
                        System.out.println(c.toString());
                        for (Component d : ((JMenu)c).getPopupMenu().getComponents()) {
                            System.out.println(d.toString());
                            if (d.toString().contains("JMenu")) {
                                d.setFont(font);
    Every System.out.println() gives a hint to what should go on the following if condition, so they should be used one at a time. This doesn't work for the JFileChooser's title font though. When I have time I'll either look further into it or ask another question.
    So, if someone else needs it like I did, here it is. As a tip, System.out.println() and .toString() are your friends! That's how I learned what was contained in each object, and what path I needed to take to get to the objects of interest.
    Thanks anyway!
