How to globally change comment/pop-up color?

I'm hoping there is some way to globally change the comment/pop-up color for an already-commented PDF.
I work in design/production, and clients  provide all content revisions to me via PDF.
The problem is, 10 times out of 10, the default commenting color they use is yellow. The yellow color is almost impossible to see when I enable "show lines connecting comment markups to their pop-ups on mouse rollover" (Preferences > Commenting).
I really need the visual of the connecting line, because with 50+  pop-ups overlaying each other on a page (not uncommon),  it's almost impossible to tell which pop-up relates to which markup unless there's a line.
I want to globally change the yellow color to just about anything else -- red, green, blue, whatever. Just something that is dark enough so I can actually see what a pop-up connects to when I roll over it.
I can figure out how to individually change a comment color (right click on comment > Properties > adjust color > OK) which also changes the associated pop-up and connecting line. However, it's not feasible to do this individually when working with a document with 200+ comments.
Is there some way to globally change the comment color after the fact?
Changing the color as described above and then selecting "Make current properties default" doesn't change any of the existing pop-ups. It just changes the default color going forward for new comments.
Example of default yellow -- note that there is a connecting line but almost impossible to see:
Example of comment changed to blue -- can easily see connecting line:
I hope someone may have some ideas. This is a huge ongiong problem for me.
Thanks!

I kept playing around and figured out a way to make it work. A bit harder than it should be perhaps, but it does the trick. Sharing here in case anyone else needs to do this.
Open the "Comments" sidebar (click "Comments" at top right of PDF in Acrobat X -- Version 10.1.8). From the sidebar, expand  "Comments List" by clicking the triangle. Manually select all of the comments on the list. With comments selected, right click (Command + click on Mac) on one of the comments then choose "Properties." From there, you can select a new color for the selected pop-ups.

  • How do I change an image border color to another color - Dreamweaver CS5?

    Good day,
    I have just learned how to add a border to an image with Dreamweaver CS5 within the Properties Inspector.
    After typing the width in pixels in the Border Text Field and pressing the Enter key, Dreamweaver created a black border.
    How do I change the image border color to another color?

    I added your suggested rule to the Style Sheet "in any order" as you explained. See the image below.
    However this did not change the image border from black to light blue. In fact, nothing changed.
    Nothing changed because the CSS that has been written into DW is incorrectly written.
    You want the following (exactly as written below)
    img {border: 4px solid #0062C8;}
    You've inadvertently wrapped the rule inside a #main_image container rendering it meaningless.
    It's easiest to go into Code View and change
    #main_image {
         img {border: 4px solid #0062C8;
    to
    img { border: 4px solid #0062C8; }
    The Property Inspector added a border exactly as I wanted it, other than the color I wanted the border to be. What is the use of this function in Property Inspector if it can add a border within Property Inspector but not let me change the COLOR of the black border that Property Inspector added, to another color?
    That's a deceptively simple, yet valid, question with a long answer.
    Back in the dark old days of web design web designers were restricted to inline HTML formatting which offered  border properties but no colors.
    CSS styling offers colors and more but has to be written differently.
    These days. it's best to avoid HTML formatting. Unfortunately border="4px" in the PI still allows it. But does not permit color.
    Does anyone else out there ever add color borders to their IMAGES (not the containing box for the image) ?
    Yes, using CSS.

    If the Inbox for this account only is revealed, is there any triangle beside it?
    Ah, yes, I see! Silly me to be looking for Sent mail under "Sent"! Indeed, there's a disclosure triangle next to the account name under "Inbox", and wen you open it, it shows Drafts, Sent, spam, and Trash. The sent items are indeed there.
    Mind you, my Dot Mac accounts show up normally, i.e., their sent mail goes under "Sent". Wish all IMAP accounts did that. It sure isn't logical to show sent mail inside an inbox...
    But to answer your question: In addition to having the "Sent" folder for the account under "Inbox", I also have a folder for the account under "Sent". This folder disappears when I check the box to store messages on the server. There were emails in it (the ones I placed there myself). I have now moved those emails to the sent sub-folder under the account under "Inbox". Even with the "store on server" option UNchecked, the emails were instantly duplicated to the server, so that they were present both locally and remotely. I then checked the "store on server box"; this made the mailbox for the account under "Sent" vanish.
    To summarize: things appear to work normally now, except that I find it very inconvenient to have to look in two separate "Sent" folders to find emails I've written.

  • How do I change the tab background color in Firefox 4?

    I just upgraded to Firefox 4. Tabs are now fine black font on dark grey background -- very hard to read. How do I change the tab background color?
    I have searched and the closest I can come is some instructions for modifying .css files, and it is not clear that those instructions will impact the tab background color.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Similar question asked by TH received another response.
    Here is the address of that question and answer:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/804464?s=change+tab+color+firefox+4&as=s
    I like the solution recommended there.
    Added information - after several days experience, I notice that some tabs occasionally revert to the original dark grey. So I am still looking for a better solution, ideally within Firefox rather than via add on. This seems like a basic setting for the browser that should be easy to change, rather than something so complex that I need an add on to change it. Or just build it without such a dark grey background to begin with and I would not need to change it.

  • How do I change the pop up menu for right click to Tools?

    Hi,
    I generally know my way around Photoshop but for some reason this has me stumped.
    When I right click on the image I'm working in (using my Cintique pen button) I get the Brushes panel as a pop up.
    Very handy, but I hate Brushes- I much prefer Tools (even if most of my Tools are modified Brushes).
    How do I change this pop up so it shows the Tools?
    I've looked in both the PS prefs and the Cintique settings.
    Think I'm just not doing it right.
    Please help if you know how to make this change.
    Thanks,
    Tom B
    I'm in Mac OS 10.5.8 running PS CS3

    Thanks Trevor, been trying various options along those lines.
    @c.pfaffenbichler
    Yes, I'd like to raise the Tool Presets panel by Right Clicking using the Cintique pen.
    In just the same way as I currently do to access the Brushes panel.
    "Then what did you mean by »even if most of my Tools are modified Brushes«?"
    As above- "A Tool may be a Brush (or an Eraser, or a Cloner, etc) though not all Brushes, etc, are Tools."
    Just as one might say "all swans are birds, though not all birds are swans."

    I now have the pallete on the right side of my screen. But, I am unable to change the color of the brush. I move the eye dropper over red and click on it. A panel comes saying 'Pure Red', I click ok but the brush color does not change.

  • 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 font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion. Since upgrading,  all fonts are grey, instead of black,  and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which also are grey and almost invisible?  And if you can asnwer this, can you tell me how to get back the email format I had before the upgrade?  I no longer have column headings and I'd like them.  Thank you. 

    Do you know about changing the font colors for ical, and the color of the scroll bars?
    No, I don't. I don't use that program; I fiddled with it just now, and could not find a way to do that.
    Perhaps someone else will have an idea.

    Hi, The options bar shows sample size 101 by 101 Average. That was my problem. When I was troubleshooting in order to try to explain to you what was happening, I noticed that when I sampled my models teeth, it gave me a color a bit lighter than her lipstick as my foreground color in my tool box. That started me thinking in the correct way. I didn't realize that my sample size had somehow gotten switched from point sample to 101 by 101 average. I appreciate the help. Thank you.
