Howto change color for all elements

I want to update the formatting for some existing Keynote presentations. Applying a new Theme does most of the work, but there are some things that are not updated to the new theme. For example: background color of certain text boxes -- and the color of actual bullets for bullet points.
In the case of these presentations:
- the background color of the textboxes is blue and I want them all to be transparent
- the color of the bullets is blue and I want them all to be the default color/picture of the particular theme
I realize this is because Keynote is "respecting" textbox formatting changes I have made in the original, but it would be nice if I could over-ride this "respect" somehow. It is easy to select all the text of a Keynote presentation and apply various ways to all the text. Is there a trick for selecting all textboxes (and changing the background color of them) -- or of specifying something to the effect of, "apply the following format to all the bullets in a presentation?

Ok, in that file, you'll find a set of parameters that looks like this.
sfa:r="1" sfa:g="0" sfa:b="0" sfa:a=".5"
Those stand for the red, green, and blue of a color and the last one is the opacity. This particular combination would create a red object with 50 percent opacity. Still looking for which one of these controls the background of a text box.
You know, it looks like if you go through the file searching for sf:fill and deleting that section, then that removes the fill. Once you find the right section, one find and replace would do it for you. It's one of those things that makes me wish I was handy enough with Automator and/or Applescript.

Change colors to all components in a consistent way

Is there a way to change color to all components of an application (or of a JFrame), such as all JButtons backgrounds, JFrame backgrounds etc.?
I suppose i've to deal with UIManager defaults, but is there some facility, or some check-list to help achieve this task?.
Thanks in advance

Check out my ComponentMapper class. You could do it with this by running the mapper on the contentpane (and potentially the JMenuBar too if you like)

Change color for

I need to make links from keywords in PDF to files which is stored on harddisk.
As for now I've done following
1. Searched PDDoc with WordFinder for keyword
2. Created link annotations from keyword quads
3. Make filespecification and set it as launch action for all link annotations
Now I need to change color for recognized keyword below link annotation. Could anybody help me with any hint?
Thanks in advance.

Look at the PDEdit APIs - that's what handles content.

Initially, a control has no caption. It's not just that the caption string is empty and the caption not visible, but the caption object does not exist.
I think this should probably be changed in future versions, because even if each control had a caption, it would still be a negligible small part of the VI. The current behavior made sense many years ago where HD and memory space was very precious. Not any more!
This issue comes up often enough that it warrants addressing the root of the problem.
It is hard to convince the casual that the caption does not exist if he can simply do a "show caption" at edit time and it will show in all glory, even with the default set to the current label. It is confusing!
There is even an idea about this that seems worth supporting (also read the link in the discussion).
What do you think?

Can i change colors for events in the calendar?

Can I change colors for different events in Calendars on Ipad 2?

Philly - I always respect your opinion and what you have to say but please hear me out.
Philly_Phan wrote:
I see one iCal window and that makes me conclude that I have one calendar with multiple event types.
You understand how the app works and how to create calendars. As I pointed out - I explained to one user that you have to tap the Calendar button in the upper left corner and then select the calendars that you want to view. In fact, if you have accidentally tapped Hide All Calendars - you see no events.
I totally understand what you are saying and I rarely take an argumentative approach in this forum, but what I am trying to point out to the OP is that you cannot create different colors for "events" in one single calendar.
For instance, if you have one calendar called "Home" and that is the one calendar that you use - if Billy has a soccer game at 6:00 PM, Jessica has band practice at 7:00 PM and you have a bridge club meeting (I'm stuck for another idea at the moment ) at 7:30 PM - and you want all of these "Events" to appear in different colors within the same calendar - it cannot be done.
Sometimes I think this is what users want to do - differentiate the different "Events" within a single calendar - and that cannot be done - at least AFAIK.
I didn't mean to cause confusion nor was I trying to complicate things. I just thought that I was giving a complete answer as to how the feature works.
After all - I could have just used the "please get the iPAD user guide" line. I just love that response.

How to give Common Background color for all JPanels in My Swing application

Hi All,
I am developing a swing application using The Swing Application Framework(SAF)(JSR 296). I this application i have multiple JPanel's embedded in a JTabbedPane. In this way i have three JTabbedPane embedded in a JFrame.
Now is there any way to set a common background color for the all the JPanel's available in the application??
I have tried using UIManager.put("Panel.background",new Color.PINK);. But it did not work.
Also let me know if SAF has some inbuilt method or way to do this.
Your inputs are valuable.
Thanks in Advance,

It is not the fault of NetBeans' GUI builder, JPanels are opaque by default, I mean whether you use Netbeans or not.Thank you!
I stand corrected (which is short for +"I jumped red-eyed on my feet and rushed to create an SSCCE to demonstrate that JPanels are... mmm... oh well, they are opaque by default... ;-[]"+)
NetBeans's definitely innocent then, and indeed using it would be an advantage (ctrl-click all JPanels in a form and edit the common opaque property to false) over manually coding
To handle this it would be better idea to make a subclass of JPanel and override isOpaque() to return false. Then use this 'Trasparent Panel' for all the panels where ever transparency is required.I beg to differ. From a design standpoint, I'd find it terrible (in the pejorative sense of the word) to design a subclass to inconsistently override a getter whereas the standard API already exposes the property (both get and set) for what it's meant: specify whether the panel is opaque.
Leveraging this subclass would mean changing all lines where a would-be-transparent JPanel is currently instantiated, and instantiate the subclass instead.
If you're editing all such lines anyway, you might as well change the explicit new JPanel() for a call to a factory method createTransparentJPanel(); this latter could, at the programmer's discretion, implement transparency whichever way makes the programmer's life easier (subclass if he pleases, although that makes me shudder, or simply call thePanel.setOpaque(false) before returning the panel). That way the "transparency" code is centralized in a single easy to maintain location.
I had to read the code for that latter's UI classes to find out the keys to use (+Panel.background+, Label.foreground, etc.), as I happened to not find this info in an authoritative document - I see that you seem to know thoses keys, may I ask you where you got them from?
One of best utilities I got from this forum, written by camickr makes getting these keys and their values very easy. You can get it from his blog [(->link)|http://tips4java.wordpress.com/2008/10/09/uimanager-defaults/]
Definitely. I bit a pair of knucles off when discovered it monthes after cumbersomely traversing the BasicL&F code...
Still, it is a matter-of-fact approach (and this time I don't mean that to sound pejorative), that works if you can test the result for a given JDK version and L&F, but doesn't guarantee that these keys are there to stand - an observation, but not a specification.
Thanks TBM for highlighting this blog entry, that's the best keys list device I have found so far, but the questions still holds as to what specifies the keys.

How to change settings for all users?

Hi All,
In cPro we have User Settings button. On clicking that we get a Tabstrip where you will find "User" tab.
my question is: How can we change the default settings for all users e.g setting the checkbox "Scheduling only manually" to true ?
Best Regards,
Arti.

Hi Arti,
In cProjects the authorizations can be managed either by authorization profile administration by system administrator for General authorizations or by Project specific authorizations for individual cProjects elements by Project owner.
Try the first one and I hope you will get the solution.

Can I change color of all objects at ones ?

Hello guys
I understand that's very fundamental question, and I promise I search the forum prior to posting, but perhaps it's my bad english and wrong phrasing, that leads to poor results. So if that has been discuss, please kindly don't waste your time, just link me to the post and I will read away.
I have very complex file, with hundreds of paths, shapes, text, outlined text, etc... It's a brochure with graphs, scematich drawings and text.
Last moment, the client like the reverse the colors from (current) Black on white, to all White on dark gray background.
Problem is, I can't seem to find easy way to just change the colors, without selecting one by one, every single object. When I selest all and choose white, it start filling paths with solid fill... Editing it wastes allot of my time and I have many pages to do.
Is there any way to simple change color of everything at once, just from black to white ? Or do I have to go object by object manually ?
Thank you very much, for all the help so far, and I'm sincerly sorry to waste your time if that has been covered previously.
Good day
ciao ciao
Monika

Thank you both for such prompt follow up. I know it's just typing and it's easy but I sincerly mean it. Thank you.
The INVERT work on some images.
The "SAME" seem to work funny way. When I select STROKE COLOR, it does nothing, but when I select WIGHT then it does and in fact I'm able to change lots of strokes at once with ease. Even tho I'm left with few small bits here and there which I need to change manually, it is certainly far better than doing one by one.
Thanks a lot for the help, it's what I was looking for.
By the way I not once used the SAME menu. Feel so lame, given I use AI (not daily but often) for few years now... Shame.
Thank you and you guys have a great day
xoxo

Change colors of all controls

Can I programmaticaly to change (to switch between two options) the color of ALL controls by some common command without dealing with property node of each control?
Thank you,

Pnt,
Thank you. I tried it as in example with decorations: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/5217.
But it looks that this option is not available for controls.

Change color for trim and registration mark

The trim and registration marks are having the color name "All" in the generated pdf from InDesign. Any one help me out on how to change the color to K (black) while generating PDF out of InDesign.

JohnAD77 wrote:
Is it possible to make to 4/c to 1/c (black 100%) while generating PDF itself without adding marks in the document?
Maybe, in CS6, by exporting to Grayscale, but this will make everything black ink only. Otherwise, no.
To add your own marks, add a slug area to the file, draw whatever you want for marks in that area, using [Black], and turn off automatic marks in the export dialog, but Include Slug Area under the bleed settings.
