I set my black color to 75, 68, 67, 90 but it resets itself to 0, 0, 0, 100

Everytime I set the fill/stroke color of objects in a file to 75, 68,67, 90 it resets it to 0, 0, 0, 100. It isn't consistent though... some objects accept the color. What could be going wrong?

Yes, total ink depends on the paper. Coated sheet could accept around 285 before pooling. Depends on the press or digital printer, too. If you set your Blacks, on screen and print to "accurate", then they will print at 100% Black or whatever percentage thereof. I do not like the Appearance of Black settings in Adobe software. To me, it should always be set to "Accurate", but my workflow is 98% print. If I want a Rich Black, I just create a swatch of whatever combination that is appropriate and I don't have any problems. So, it comes as a surprise you'd be having some problems. My only guess was the Preference setting, but your Color Setting may have something to do with it, too. If you solve it, I'd be interested in knowing what you did to solve it.

Can I invoke a SubVI in an event? and how do I set the background color of a pipe to #0000ff?

When I click an image or a glass pipe(which belongs to Industry/Chesmitry category in palette), I want a SubVI to be invoked.
The purpose is to fetch an OPC-UA data from a web service and to write to it via the service.
We are building an HMI solution which displays an interactive water plant diagram.
When users click pipes and motors in the diagram, clicked devices should be turned on and off and change their animations or colors accordingly.
OPC-UA is for communication with devices.
I couldn't even set the background color of a pipe to "#0000ff", but setting it to "Red" or "Blue" was possible, and I don't know how to invoke SubVIs in event scripts.
The documentations in NI.com are confusing and lack depth.
Even silverlight references are confusing.
How do I do all of these?

Hi iCat,
Can you provide some more information about your current implementation so that we can help to answer your questions. Some questions I have for you are:
Are you creating this project in the NI LabVIEW Web UI Builder or in LabVIEW?
How are you publishing your webservice? Is this also in LabVIEW?
How is your webservice interacting with an OPC-UA server?
How is the certification set up with OPC-UA so that you can communicate between the server and the client?

How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?

How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?
I want to change the font color for only a couple of rows inside a JTable.
I've seen some ways to possibly do this with an individual cell.
Clarification on changing the font color in an individual cell would be helpful too if
there is no easy way to do this for a row.

hai,
Try out with this piece of code.Create your table and assign the renderer to each column in the table.
CellColorRenderer m_CellColorRenderer = new CellColorRenderer();
for(int i=0;i<your_JTable.getColumnCount();i++)
your_JTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).setCellRenderer(m_CellColorRenderer);
class CellColorRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer
CellColorRenderer()
setOpaque(true);
setHorizontalAlignment(LEFT);
setVerticalAlignment(CENTER);
setBackground(Color.white);
setForeground(Color.black);
protected void setValue(Object value)
     setText((value == null) ? "" : value.toString());
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,Object value,boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,int column)
     if(isSelected == true)
          setForeground(Color.red);
     else

Preserving Black color values when converting color PDF to grayscale

I opened a full colored PDF document (exported from InDesign using Profile: Euroscale Coated v2) in Photoshop and tried to convert it to grayscale (image > mode > grayscale) and noticed that the black color values changed. text for example that was 100% black in the PDF document became a screen of 91% black.
is there a way to preserve color values when converting full color PDF documents to grayscale?
or in other words WHICH is the correct way to convert full color PDF documents or full color InDesign files to grayscale?
I am using Adobe CS 3, Acrobat 8 Professional, on Mac OS 10.5.5

Before you open the PDF in Photoshop, set PS's Color Settings to Photoshop 5 Default Spaces. When you open the PDF set the Mode to Grayscale in the Import dialog. Just remember to reset your color settings when you're done.
Edit: Also, if you want to match black percentages as well as 100% black, set the Photoshop Color Settings to Photoshop 5 Default Spaces with the Gray working space to Dot Gain 20%.

Can background pages set to black background be made to open in black right away, instead of flashing white first.

I have the background color of Firefox set to black so that pages are black with light colored text. However, when Firefox is loading, and when I open a new tab or window, the page is initially white while searching for the website, then turns black as it starts to download. Is it possible to change the initial white page to black also?

Felix,
The page color will always be white. You may lay a rectangular shape over the page, set it's color as you wish, and send the graphic object to the background (Arrange > Send Object to Background). Having done this, any text will appear above the colored graphic. You will need to set both the text color and the text background color to your preferences using the Text formatting tools. Transparent would be the best choice for the text background, and white would be a good choice for the text.

Can I Set Submix Label Color

I would like to be able to set the label color as can be done with tracks, and clips. At the moment, all the submix tracks are the default green.
Is there a way to set the label color?
In the manual, there is only a mention that the submix tracks have a color label, but no mention on how to change it, and cntl-click does not review a pop-up menu, and using the "Multitrack > Track Color" menu, has no effect.
To me, is seems if a track has a color label, I should be able to change it...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

its still not working.
i have the following:
panelColorCode.setForeground(Color.black);
panelColorCode.setLayout(new Gridlayout(0, 2));
panelColorCode.setBackground(Color.white);
....add(new Label("Colour code"));
....add(new Label.. these are both white backgrounds
....add(new Label... ditto
panelColorCode.setBackground(Color.gray);
....add(new Label....
this last line sets the whole panel to gray, but i just want the last label to be greyed out. is this possible, am i being dim?
thanks again for help

'Pantone Black' (color bridge uncoated / plus series) doesn't 'look on screen' as black at all.

I'm working in Adobe Illustrator CC on a mac.
'Pantone Black' (color bridge uncouted / plus series) doesn't 'look on screen' as black at all. A '100%K' black (cmyk) look perfectly black. The Pantone solid black appears nothing like a 'black' at all on screen. Is there a setting that makes the colors 'look' more like the end result?
Also is there a reason, a lot of the colors in the 'Color Bridge Uncoated - Plus Series' doesn't come up in the Adobe Illustrator 'Color Bridge Uncoated' pallette?
Can anybody help me out?

What does the Pantone Black Uncoated Plus Series look like? I mean, on your screen? Is it brownish? Not sure why Pantone Bridge does not show in Illustrator Bridge. The entire color communications system(s) seemed to be a bit messed up. There seems to be a drift on screen when looking at Pantone anything these days.

PDF creation causes rich black colors to shift

I'm designing a book cover. There are three main areas: front, back and spine. Each area has specified the default "black" color in the swatches panel. This color uses 100% K in the CMYK color space. In the preferences panel, under "appearance of black", I have checked to print and display blacks as rich black. Everthing looks great on the Indesign file. My blacks are as specified. Everything has been double-checked on the swatch panel to be set to this black color, which is a non-editable color (always remains 100% K on the CMYK setting).It has been displaying just fine on the file, as a rich black, no color shifting ever whatsoever until doing the following:
When I make a PDF using the "Export" window, I select PDF/x-1A as my printer specifies. I create the PDF, and open it, only to see that my blacks are being shifted to a shade of deep brownish black.
On the first few attempts, only two of the three areas specified above did this. ON the next attempts, all three areas look the same. This is weird. I'm very disappointed with the strange issues present in Indesign, as I am trained with Quarkxpress and find it to work flawlessly in comparison, especially with something like color output.
What am I doing wrong?
When I change settings, for example, change the color management to "none" or leave it in the default for the PDFx/1-a, it doesn't make any difference in this glitch in the output.
Help!
Thanks.

The Appearance of Black setting to print all blacks as rich black ONLY affects printing or exporting to RGB devices (essentially printing to desktop printers or PRINTING to PDF with Composite RGB or Composite Grayscale selected). It has no effect at all on EXPORT to PDF.
>I changed my 100%K only blacks to genuine rich blacks of 100%K 25%C 25%Y 25%M and the problem is corrected.
You said this is a book cover. That implies that the output will be printed, not viewed on screen. For printed output it is ESSENTIAL that you set blacks to display accurately. You should also turn on Overprint Preview when judging color. You'll probably get away with your rich black in any type over 12 points or so where it might be applied, but it's generally not a great idea to use rich black for type in small sizes. Rich blacks also generally use slightly more cyan than yellow and magenta to compensate for ink impurities.
Do you have a high-end monitor? Is your monitor calibrated and profiled using a colorimeter? If not, you can forget what you see on screen. The odds that it is anywhere near accurate are similar to the odds of winning the lottery. Are you using the same color space in Acrobat as you are in ID? If you change the color space, the appearance of your colors will change.
When you export to PDF/X-1a you are converting everything to CMYK using a target color space. By default the conversion option is set to preserve numbers. If your imported art has an embedded profile that differs from the destination, that will be honored and color numbers will be changed to preserve the appearance of color, as much as possible taking into account different gamuts, and untagged imported art, along with native objects will all be presumed to be in the current working space in ID, and cmyk numbers for those objects will be preserved. If the destination space differs from the working space, thew appearance of these colors will shift, but 100% K native objects will continue to be 100% K in the PDF. A conversion to a destination that differs from the working space WITHOUT preserving numbers will result in 100% K being changed to a 4-color mix that mimics the appearance of 100% K output in the working space.
Knowing the destination space in advance is vital if you are doing a CMYK conversion. CMYK profiles are "device dependent" and CMYK-to-CMYK conversions are destructive, both in terms of potential loss of color (and you don't gain by going from a smaller to a larger gamut space) and conversion of solid colors to 4-color mixes which is particularly problematic for black type and thin rules.

Help with rich black color for print project, please

We are using CS5 photoshop to create a 3ft x 8 ft vinyl banner. We've never created something this large for print before. Included layers are a black to white gradient, a black filigree graphic from DigitalJuice, and black text (that was created in Illustrator by someone else). We set the project up using CMYK. The printer informed us that we need to change the blacks to rich black (C50%, M40%, Y40%, K100%).
How is this best done? I can see how to change the color picker to the rich black %, but this doesn't appear to change the blacks in the project. Is there a way to change them, or to export the project with rich blacks?
Do we have to begin from scratch - and if so, how do we get the graphics and gradients to the rich black color settings.
Any help will be greatly appreciated -

In RGB mode I can't create non - rich black. For example if I set the color palette to CMYK, choose C=0%, M=0%,Y=0%, K=100%, fill the canvas with this color, and then measure the color with the eyedropper, the color reads C=70%, M=68%, Y=64, K=74%.
This means that if your document is in CMYK mode and you have blacks that read C=0%, M=0%,Y=0%, K=100%, converting the document to RGB and then back to CMYK these blacks will become rich. Though the numbers of the rich black my vary depending on how your color management is set.
Have in mind that the numbers above preserve the tonal intensity of non-rich black when converted to rich black. If you want the numbers your printer suggested they will be fine for elements like text and flat colors but for things like photo images this will intensify the blacks and will alter the tonal balance appearance which may be not what you want.

Automatically set the stroke color as fill color

Hello all,
I have a file with two squares with red and blue fill colors respectively and transparent surrounding strokes. I'm trying to find a way to automatically set the stroke color of each square to the respective fill color.
Is there an Illustrator script somewhere that would achieve that? I am not aware of an internal Illustrator command for this purpose.
Thank you

I'm not a scripting guy at all, but getting an object's fill color and applying it elsewhere sounds like it should be scriptable. You should post the question in the AI Scripting Forum.
The hitch I see here is your assertion that your objects have "transparent surrounding strokes." I could be wrong, but I believe there is actually no such thing in Illustrator. Through some simple experimenting, I conclude that an object's stroke set to "no color" by choosing the blank swatch actually becomes a stroke of undetermined, or perhaps zero, weight.
Take an object with a stroke color and weight and set its stroke to no color. The weight goes away as well. One can't exist without the other, and vice-versa, with repect to stroke weight and color. Now enter a weight for that colorless stroke, and it again receives color; defaulting to black regardless of what it may have been previously.
Similarly, if you assign a color where there is no weight, a 1-point weight appears by default.
I'm not sure how/if that plays into your plans, but I just thought I'd ramble on about it here in case it's something you hadn't considered.

Can't set up irssi colors

I'm feeling really... stupid. I just can't set up irssi colors, almost ashame for asking advice on this
Here's my theme (just cloned the default theme):
# When testing changes, the easiest way to reload the theme is with /RELOAD.
# This reloads the configuration file too, so if you did any changes remember
# to /SAVE it first. Remember also that /SAVE overwrites the theme file with
# old data so keep backups :)
# TEMPLATES:
# The real text formats that irssi uses are the ones you can find with
# /FORMAT command. Back in the old days all the colors and texts were mixed
# up in those formats, and it was really hard to change the colors since you
# might have had to change them in tens of different places. So, then came
# this templating system.
# Now the /FORMATs don't have any colors in them, and they also have very
# little other styling. Most of the stuff you need to change is in this
# theme file. If you can't change something here, you can always go back
# to change the /FORMATs directly, they're also saved in these .theme files.
# So .. the templates. They're those {blahblah} parts you see all over the
# /FORMATs and here. Their usage is simply {name parameter1 parameter2}.
# When irssi sees this kind of text, it goes to find "name" from abstracts
# block below and sets "parameter1" into $0 and "parameter2" into $1 (you
# can have more parameters of course). Templates can have subtemplates.
# Here's a small example:
# /FORMAT format hello {colorify {underline world}}
# abstracts = { colorify = "%G$0-%n"; underline = "%U$0-%U"; }
# When irssi expands the templates in "format", the final string would be:
# hello %G%Uworld%U%n
# ie. underlined bright green "world" text.
# and why "$0-", why not "$0"? $0 would only mean the first parameter,
# $0- means all the parameters. With {underline hello world} you'd really
# want to underline both of the words, not just the hello (and world would
# actually be removed entirely).
# COLORS:
# You can find definitions for the color format codes in docs/formats.txt.
# There's one difference here though. %n format. Normally it means the
# default color of the terminal (white mostly), but here it means the
# "reset color back to the one it was in higher template". For example
# if there was /FORMAT test %g{foo}bar, and foo = "%Y$0%n", irssi would
# print yellow "foo" (as set with %Y) but "bar" would be green, which was
# set at the beginning before the {foo} template. If there wasn't the %g
# at start, the normal behaviour of %n would occur. If you _really_ want
# to use the terminal's default color, use %N.
# default foreground color (%N) - -1 is the "default terminal color"
default_color = "-1";
# print timestamp/servertag at the end of line, not at beginning
info_eol = "false";
# these characters are automatically replaced with specified color
# (dark grey by default)

It's almost the way I want it, but a couple of things:
- I want everyone nickname but mine in gray
- I want the join/quit text (... has joined/quit) in gray
- I want the mode (@, +, etc) in yellow
I tried to format the text according irssi site, but without luck.
For example tried this to change others nickname color:
pubmsgnick = "{msgnick %y$0%n %K$1%n-}";
pubnick = "%K$*%n";
and this for the quit msg
# mode change is printed ([+o nick])
mode = "{comment %K$*%n}";
# nick/host is printed (parts, quits, etc.)
channick = "%c$*%n";
chanhost = "{nickhost %c$*%n}";
all without any luck. Also tried to put the format strings outside the curly braces, with the same result. I've been editing the config file for a while now, not sure what other information could you possibly need.
I know it's not a big deal, I stil can use the program with no hassle, but it would really be nice to set the colors like that, to help me distinguish between lines.
Thank you for reading, and sorry for my lousy english

How to set a background color to view

Hi All,
i creared a view with 2 textboxes and a button.These elements are in TransparentContainer.I set the background color to the TransparentContainer.By setting color to the TransparentContainer it is comming at the center and the 4 sides of it is displaying in the normal background color of the browser
i didnt find any color options for the view called RootUIElementContainer.the width and height of the view are setted to the browser means 1024*768.
Just like sap editor which we get by the link https://www.sdn.sap.com i want to get my view .....
I want to set color to this RootUIElementContainer element which effect the whole view...not the containers or groups which i add under this RootUIElementContainer
Regards

hi Padma,
For changing the background colour you will have to make the change in the theme.
You can download the theme editor plugin for eclipse from SDN. With this plugin, you can make changes to the default themes , save as a new theme
Or if you are using portal, then goto system administrator, theme editor, select SAP Streamline and change the color in Screen areas -> application, then save the theme with different name.
Best regards,
Sangeeta

I set my black color to 75, 68, 67, 90 but it resets itself to 0, 0, 0, 100
