Trying to figure out how to change the desktop background with powershell/batch.

The entire thing I'm doing is pretty pointless lol. But I wanted to prank my mother. This is my computer by the way nothing malicious. I just had an idea that the next time she goes to click and open opera I would have a batch files disguised as it instead
that would just say some things. Mimic deleting files. Kill exlporer.exe. Change the background to one I created saying something like GOT YA! with a troll face or something. And then either run explorer.exe again or shutdown my laptop. I don't really know
what I am doing lol. I have the batch file done but the changing of the desktop has me puzzled. I can have the batch file to replace the current bmp file with one I've made but it doesn't actually change the background. And JFY WPA files just happened to be
where I decided to sit the files for this prank at until I'm done with them.
I used this to copy it over.
copy /y "C:\Users\user\Documents\WPA Files\Internet Explorer W
allpaper.bmp" "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Inter
net Explorer Wallpaper.bmp"
I used this to try to get the wallpaper to refresh to show the new one before I found out this doesn't work with windows 8.1
RUNDLL32.EXE user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters
I found this but I am not entirely sure what to do with -name or -value or if I need to do anything to them or the others.. Doubt this would even refresh or what ever to make the new wallpaper actually show though.
set-itemproperty -path "HKCU:Control Panel\Desktop" -name wallpaper -value $image
Also found this which I don't get at all..
Add-Type @"
using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using Microsoft.Win32;
namespace Wallpaper
public enum Style : int
Tile, Center, Stretch, NoChange
public class Setter {
public const int SetDesktopWallpaper = 20;
public const int UpdateIniFile = 0x01;
public const int SendWinIniChange = 0x02;

public static void SetWallpaper ( string path, Wallpaper.Style style ) {
SystemParametersInfo( SetDesktopWallpaper, 0, path, UpdateIniFile | SendWinIniChange );
RegistryKey key = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("Control Panel\\Desktop", true);
switch( style )
case Style.Stretch :
key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", "2") ;
key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", "0") ;
break;

key.Close();

Haha you're funny. I can't decide if you sincerely want me to learn or if you enjoy my struggle(I'm dumb) and think I'm up to no good. I do enjoy learning though :).
If I thought you were dumb I would have ignored you. I just think it would be more fun for you to find the answers. This is a technical forum and not a free answer forum. It is for people who are learning or who have specific technical
questions. I am dropping you in the "might be learning" bin. If you had asked a specific technical question I would have answered it.

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!

How to change the look and feel for Heading of quick launch menu in project server 2010

Hi
can someone tell me how to change the look and feel of Header names in quick launch.
I want the header to be displayed in Bold with Underline to it.
could this be possible for just header in quick launch in project server 2010.

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 context name

I have deployed an application in oracle 9iAS, with the context as Sample,
now iam able to access the application as
http://ipaddress:7777/context
how to change the application to run in default context
how to change it to http://ipaddress:7777 to access the application, where should i make the changes

Just to share the solution.
Solved it following way:
deployed like I usually deploy via EM and then used "Fetch Deployment Plan" in EM (you can actually fetch the plan in admin console, too, I think). And then modified that plan.xml istead of creating my own. The advantage is: EM does the magic, you only have to copy the solution ;-)
The problem for me was, that I was not modifiying the appropriate deployment descriptor because I haven't seen the descriptor's xml file in JDeveloper. This xml was generated by JDev when using "Deploy to EAR". Only realised that after I have unzipped the generated ear.

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 ;

Click on each field and the choose Properties from either File menu (or if on Mac hold dow mouse button until context menu appears choose properties)
go to Font
choose desired size and type font,you can choose to make this the default.
Do this with each field.
Or if you have a lot of fields:
while one is selected select all of them
then go to fonts in properties
change Font and size and make default.

How to change the OraSSO login link in webcache/load balance

Hi
we have 10gAsR1 installed as a Portal instance. We have 6-server
load balancer => webcache as loadbalancer (listening port 80)
Wb ch1 and wb ch2 => webcache (listening port 7777)
portal1 and portal2 => Portal listening 7778
infra =>Infrastruture with repository Portal/Oracle SSO (listening 7777)
This set up is working fine for our intranet setup, now we need to open this for couple of external clients. Well initially we need to open on the load balancer server on port 80 for external team to access, it works fine when we make it publc access.
Now when we need to make it SSO (siteminder) enables, when users click on login link it first goes oracle sso then it internally redirects the page to site minder sso.
Well, I have noted that the sso server details are mentioned in global setting sso/oid details. Since we need to open this for external client we have to add a DNS entry for this so that we can allow its access over firewall..
Now I have made DNS name change at my infrserver level, now I need to update the change at the load balancer server (where wheb chache is running).
Any one know how to chang the URL at load balancer.
I am struck at this point please suggest how should i proceed..
Thanks,

How to Change the Default Font in Firefox 4 ?

Go to properties first: and set before typing anything in as shown here:

Then right click bring up this menu while inside active field and click on item with arrrow:

Now what ever you typed should reflect the new Font setting.
we may be as you say. But then again other people act like whats on the other side.
We do our best. And if we fall short, well we gave it our best shot.
Okay. In the interests of being completely clear:
I have already tried this. Several times. This procedure will change the default for any of the fields that I place by hand. It does not change the default for any of the fields placed by the Wizard. I was unable to find a solution to the problem in any of the manuals, books, or on-line forums, which is why I posted here as a last resort. This leads to two conclusions:
A. Your advice is incorrect
B. There is a problem with my installation of Acrobat
I will assume that A is not the correct conclusion. I will therefore try a re-install of my software to see if this clears up the problem. There have been other issues with other Adobe software on my machine that a re-installed has fixed nicely. Luckily, I don't have to do this at all often.

How to change the default language?

How to change the default language of the Ubuntu desktop and of the Firefox program to Norwegian or Danish?

While this isn't the appropriate venue to ask about changing the default language in Ubuntu, the snide forum link above lazily fails to address the Firefox language issue, and unfortunately this link now comes up on the first page of google searches about the default language in firefox.
To change Firefox's default language, go to Edit -> Preferences -> Content, and click the "Choose" button under the Languages heading.
To change the default language of your spell checker, right click on any text area and find the "Languages" entry in the menu, then select the language of your choice.

How to change the default font (Noteworthy) in Preview Annotation Note ?

How to change the default font (Noteworthy) in Preview > Annotation > Note ?
Thanks for any help guys. Noteworthy is horrible, in my view. But this does not matter. I simply do not want to use it, and woudl be fine with having helvetica back as the annotation typeface.
Neither is Preview responding to changes I attempt in the type menu, nor did I find an entry when using “defaults read com.apple.Preview” in the Terminal.
Any idea? Cheers.

Sorry if this doesn't apply in Mountain Lion (no way to look at ML right now), but I see this in Preview under Mavericks:
I click the annotation button (circled in red) and draw a box. I can then change the text to any active font using the drop down menu (circled in green).

How to change the default view of published iCal's URL

I am publishing an iCal for a nonprofit group and link to the calendar from the group's website. The default URL given (in the send publish email option) leads to the week view of the current week. I would prefer the link to take site visitors to the month view of the calendar. If I go to the month view and copy the URL for it, and use that for the link, I have to change the URL each month, because the URL that comes from the month view will only show the month it was at the time I copied the URL -- it will not change with the new month. Does anyone have any idea of how I can change the URL so that it leads to the month view of whatever the current month is?
I should note that I know how to change the default view in the my browser, but I would rather not have to explain how to do this to all the people viewing the calendar -- just wanting the correct month view to show up when they click the link, without having to change it each month.
I would be so grateful if anyone has some insight on this!
Thanks.

Carlo,
The fact that this question has been left unanswered for over 2 months seems a little negligent on the part of Apple Support.
This Forum is unfortunately not Apple Support. According to Apple:
What is Apple Discussions and how can it help me?  "Apple Discussions is a user-to-user support forum where experts and other Apple product users get together to discuss Apple products. You'll find a wealth of information about your favorite Apple hardware and software products that will help you get the most out of your purchase. You can participate in discussions about various products and topics, find solutions to help you resolve issues, ask questions, get tips and advice, and more.
If you have a technical question about an Apple product, be sure to check out Apple's support resources first by consulting the application Help menu on your computer and visiting our Support site to view articles and more on our product support pages."
In direct response to your questions, I would say that (as observed by the OP) anyone who subscribes to a published calendar can make a change to their desired view using the "Preferences" icon which is displayed underneath the mini-month calendars.
There is no way that I know of to directly or conveniently change the time-range. There may be workarounds, but I could not find a suitable solution for you.
I would recommend that you provide iCal Feedback, if you are interested in informing Apple of your desires.
