In Pages 09' how do I change the background colors on the templates?

I have been trying to change the background on one of the templates from red to green for a while.  I can't figure it out and i can't find answers online any where that are helpful at all.  I just need to changes the background color to what I want it to be and not what the programs sets them too.  Any ideas?  I'm totally stumped!
Thanks for the help!

Hi Burke,
Here's the result, using Peggy's suggestion:
Process:
Click on the thin strip of red to the left of the title ("THE THOMPSONS") to select the background.
You'll see the small x in each corner, indicating the object is locked.
Go Arrange > Unlock (or press option-command-L) to unlock the object.
Click on the Fill Color well in the format bar, and choose a new colour from the palette.
Go Arrange > Lock (or press command-L to re-lock the object.
Save the result.
Regards,
Barry

  • How do I change to background color in the open tabs; currently grey with black text, hard to read.

  • How do I change the background color of the pages?

    Do you  know how to edit the template?   If not  simply  choose a rectangle shape, change colour to Black and using ARRANGE, send to back and  bring forward till it replaces whatever is there.
    The best way is to  pull down the book slide to reveal the Layout - which shows you the chapters and section etc  which make up a template.  You have to  use the same procedure on ever page from the template you intend to  use.
    In the Template Layout, select  your page. Click on whatever your background colour is...IF its unlocked you see the  square pull handles in corners - now simply select Black and it should change the colour - if not and its unlocked, it  may be a black image, in which case delete it, Insert a new rectangle, pull to  fit the  page and change colour to  black. It should now be hiding  the other content, ARRANGE > Send to Back and it should sit  behind all your content. Now go back to arrange and LOCK.
    You should see a red marker on  the left with whatever page you are editing "Save Changes" click it and its done... repeat on all other pages.

  • How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.

    How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.
    As an example, html widget has white background on iPad, and black on mac. The same goes for interactive widget.
    The MathType text inserted is inserted as a image, and will have the same color when in fullscreen as when not. So I need the textcolor to be the same in both views. Anyone know how to fix this?

    We're still not communicating. This is why I wanted an example .iba.
    Here's a re-creation of my own, going off what you described. You said "all html widgets and all gallery widgets" have this problem. So I inserted a blank HTML widget and a blank Gallery widget, and typed into both. Inserted a MathType equation into both. I don't see any difference when I preview it on my Mac compared to the preview on the iPad. I want to help, but I can't help if I can't duplicate the issue.
    I've attached the screen shots and the .iba file [link to .iba file].
    Feel free to email me directly at bobm at dessci dot com. If you're uncomfortable giving some information here, tell me anything you want in email. I work for the "MathType company", Design Science.

    Hi,
    CSS is interpreted by your browser, so server cache seems unlikely in htis case. There is however some hierarchy in CSS, so parts of the APEX CSS, theme CSS or page CSS might overwright or block yours.
    Does changing the CSS on runtime affect your page? Eg, run the following in your browser console and see if your page turns black: $('#uBodyContainer').css("background-color","black")
    Also try moving up your css in the hierarchy labeling it as important:
    div#uBodyContainer { 
      background-color:#000000 !important;

  • Changing the background color of the row of the selected cell in table view

    How can I change the background color of the table row when user clicks on table cell in table view?
    Edited by: a_brar on May 5, 2012 11:12 PM

    You could apply the following css style (by defining a custom stylsheet with the following lines and loading it into your app).
    The last color sets the background color of the selected row while the table-view has focus (in this case to orange).
    .table-view:focused .table-row-cell:filled:focused:selected {
        -fx-background-color: -fx-focus-color, -fx-cell-focus-inner-border, orange;
    }There are quite a lot of subtleties in the css styling for the tableview (e.g. different colors for the selected row when the control has focus vs when it doesn't or when the user hovers over a selected row in an unfocussed tableview), which you may want to cater for when chaning the background color of the selected row in a table view. There is also alternate styling for when the tableview is in row selection vs cell selection mode. So you may want to look at customizing further based on the css styles in caspian.css in sdk/rt/lib/jfxrt.jar if you can understand the complex css there.

  • How do I customize the background color of the Bookmarks Drop Down Menu?

    The drop down bookmark menu is a very light grey and the highlighting is also very light and hard to see. Where in about:config can I change these colors.
    Also is there a way to bold certain bookmark items in the bookmark menu?
    I'm using ver. 19.02

    I appreciate the amount of time you put into typing up the example and I'm sure the example is great, but again...I have no idea how to use it or where to put it.
    You were supposed to install [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/ the Stylish extension]. Once installed, there's a new category in the Add-ons Manager called User Styles. In that category, there's a button labeled Write New Style which opens a window where you can paste or write CSS code; click the Preview button to see what how your style affects the interface or a web page, or the Save button to keep it.
    Styles in the userChrome.css file cannot be previewed, and any changes only take effect after restarting Firefox. Since the ChromeEdit Plus extension simply allows you to edit that file, presumably it has the same limitations.
    Anyway...

    What code would I use to change the highlight color that you see as your cursor hovers over the menu items?
    I wrestled with this one for a while, but I couldn't get it to work, and I gave up due to time constraints. Again, I suggest you head over to the userstyles.org forum and ask there.

    How do I designate what menu items I want in bold face?
    The relevant bit of information is the bookmark or folder name. Note the value of the label attribute in the above example (the stuff between quotation marks); that's how you show the Recently Bookmarked folder in bold text. You can combine several selectors (the stuff before the first { character) into one by separating them with a comma, like so:
    <pre><nowiki>#bookmarksMenuPopup menu[label="Some folder"],
    #bookmarksMenuPopup menu[label="A different folder"],
    #bookmarksMenuPopup menuitem[label="This one's a bookmark"],
    #bookmarksMenuPopup menuitem[label="Some other bookmark"],
    #bookmarksMenuPopup menu[label="Yet another folder"] {
    font-weight: bold !important;
    }</nowiki></pre>
    You're welcome.
