Pages:  Can change the fill color

I am new to Pages, using it to create a newsletter. I am trying to change one of the colors on the cover page but it doesn't seem to be accepting it in multiple spots. I am using the magnifying glass to identify the color I want it to look like, then dragging it to the fill box. When I print it, the color is off. I have successfully changed the color on the tables on the next pages. It seems like the background fill is locked. Can this be? Please advise.

Reading page 60 of the *Pages User Guide* which every user may download from the Help Menu would be helpful:
*"Using Master Objects".*

  • How can I programmatically change the fill color Settings of the Cwslide ActiveX Controls

    First, if you want to start getting beyond the basics with DAQ, you are going to have to stop using the DAQ assistant and do it with lower level DAQmx VI's.  There are hundreds of examples in the example finder.  You can even right click on the DAQ assistant and select open front panel.  That will create a subVI that you can open and see what is going on behind the scenes.  Do it.  I think you'll find the DAQ task is being recreated on each (though I'm not 100% of how the settings are established or maintained in each section of that subVI).
    The second problem is you have a bit of a race condition on iteration 0.  Those two DAQ property nodes are running at the same time.  So when you read the AI.Max, it may be happening before or after the AI.Max is set in your case structure.
    Third, make sure you wire up your error wires.

  • Can I change the fill color of an entire row based on what's selected in a pop-up menu in the first cell?

    I have a pop-up menu in the first cell of every row with three choices (and I may add more at a later date).  I want the fill color of the row to change depending on which thing is selected.  Is this hard to do?

    Hi,
    In essence the same as Wayne's answer, but with a slight modification to fit  to duplicate your 'color the whole row' specification. The final result, with Table 2 slid behind Table 1, is shown.
    Table 2 is a single column table with the same number of rows as Table 1. The table is resized to match the full width of Table 1.
    In A2, use the formula =Table 1::A2 to copy the value from that cell in Table 2. Fill the formula down through the rest of the column.
    Select all the cells in Table 2 (except the header row), and apply conditional formatting rules such as those below.
    Note that the Conditional Format rules are set to apply the same colour to text and fill in the cell, so that the text disappears.
    When Table 2 is ready, select it, then go Arrange > Send to Back.
    Before sliding Table 2 behind Table 1, Select Table 1 and use the Table Inspector to set the Cell Background to None (see red arrow in illustration). If This table has a Header column, you need to select the header cells independently and again set the Cell Background to None.
    Now select Table 2 and drag it to a position partially under Table 1. When you see the blue alignment guides on both sides, or at the top and bottom, of Table 1, release the mouse button and use the arrow keys to nudge Table 2 into its final position.

  • Link Colors: Here you can change the default colors for Web links. Click on the color samples to select colors.

    This worked before, but, since I reinstalled my pc, it doesn't.
    Why is this & what must I do for it to work. ?

  • Why can't I change the background color on title slides in 10.0.2?

    I can change the font color, but the background only seems to be able to be black. any truth in that?  Seems like the older version I had let me change the background color.

    @ KT
    I'm replying to myself because I cannot see your post ??????
    From my email- KT said:
    "Typically, when a same-only different controller acts up like this, the first thing to do is to rewire - sounds like you've gone down that path tho.
    Can you duplicate one of the cooperative controllers, add it to the mix and see if things change there?"
    I've tried all of that several times.  I have no idea.  Maybe some sleep will help it and me.
    Thanks for your comments and suggestions.
    Edit
    As soon as I posted this - your post appeared.  Again??????

  • I have trouble reading in Black and White. changing the background color for all

    I have trouble reading in Black and White. On my PC I can change the background  color (and I am not just talking about for a word or pages document) but for eveything so anything that was a white background I can put in what ever color I like but it still prints in Black and white.. I can't see how to do this on the Macbook air. on my PC I do this in display. Sort of putting colored film over the screen I dont know what to do. Can anyone help?

    Hello Floridamacbookpro,
    You may be interested in the 'invert colors' Accessibility feature. This can be invoked by pressing the Control, Option, Command, and 8 keys on your keyboard. This only affects your display, and does not have any affect on printed items.
    Mac OS X displays inverted image colors (white on black, reverse type)

  • How to change the background color of a sequence?

    I'm using Premiere Pro CS5 on Win7 x64.  I've imported a JPEG that's a different size than my 1920 x 1080 frame.  The background of this JPEG is white, but the background of the sequence is black (by default), so the borders of the JPEG make it stand out.  I want the JPEG to blend into the sequence background by making the sequence background white.  How can I change the sequence background color?  Thanks.

    Jim and Ann are correct. I can see where someone used to After Effects might ask that question though because in AE you can change the background color of the composition. Same with Photoshop.
    However, I think it would confuse things if changing the background color were to be allowed in Premiere Pro. Black tells me something. I suppose white could tell me the same thing, but at this time it is not possible in Premiere Pro.

  • How to programmatically change the cell color of an ADF table ?

    Hi all,
    I have an ADF table with some fields on it. Depending on the value of a field named, say, "F1", I would like to change its background color.
    So far I can change the field color with this EL expression inside the InlineStyle table column property:
    font-size:medium; background-color:#{viewScope.myBean.setColor};
    where setColor is a bean function, in where I access the field "F1" via binding, parse its value, and return the right value - so far, so good.
    The bad thing is, the InlineStyle affects that field in all the rows of the table, while I would like to change only the field in the rows, which have that specific value in it.
    So for example having the rows:
    F1
    abc#1 ----> currently selected row
    cde#2
    efg#3
    I want to change the background color to all the F1 fields which have a "1" after the '#' and let the other "F1" row cells background color stay unchanged.
    But as you can imagine, the InlineStyle affect the "F1" background color in all the rows (assuming that the first row of the table is selected).
    So the question: how to access a single cell of a row in an ADF table, and programmatically change its background color ?
    So far I can iterate through the ADF table with:
    BindingContext bindingctx = BindingContext.getCurrent();
    BindingContainer bindings = bindingctx.getCurrentBindingsEntry();
    DCBindingContainer bindingsImpl = (DCBindingContainer) bindings;
    DCIteratorBinding dciter = bindingsImpl.findIteratorBinding("aTableIterator");//access the iterator by its ID value in the PageDef file
    RowSetIterator rsi = dciter.getRowSetIterator();
    System.out.println("rsi getrowcount = " rsi.getRowCount());+
    Row row = null;
    +if (rsi.getRowCount() > 0) {+
    row = rsi.getCurrentRow();
    System.out.println("row attr = " Arrays.toString(row.getAttributeNames()));+
    System.out.println("class : " row.getAttribute("F1").getClass().toString());+
    +}+
    +while (rsi.hasNext()) {+
    row = rsi.next();
    System.out.println("row attr = " Arrays.toString(row.getAttributeNames()));+
    +}+

    Hi,
    I mean a specific cell within a row.
    Here are two pictures that show an ADF table with two rows and some fields on it:
    https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=7D3084D8BF755808&id=7D3084D8BF755808!107&sc=documents#cid=7D3084D8BF755808&id=7D3084D8BF755808!107&sc=documents
    bild_A is what I have, bild_B is what I would like. Note that:
    in bild_A the first row contain a yellow background color for the field F4 and an orange background color for the field F5. This is correct, because F4 has an "1" at the end of its string value, and F5 has a "3" at the end. So far so good.
    But the second row (again, bild_A) has also the fields F4 with yellow background color, and the field F5 with orange background color, even if the value in both fields is 0.
    What is should be, is shown in bild_B.
    The problem is that the solution provided affects all the cells of the column, while I need to change the background color of a single cell, and leave the other unchanged (see bild_B).
    I hope that clarify a bit :)
    Sergio.

  • Change the 'disabled color text' of JCheckBox and JRadioButton

    With a JTextComponent item, you can change the disabled color text with :
    item.setDisabledTextColor(Color.blue);
    But with a JToggleButton item (JCheckBox, JRadioButton) I can't change the disabled color of its text .
    Does anyone have an idea about what I can do ??
    Thanks a lot
    ps: disabled doesn't mean deselected

    Try to set the color of disabled text with the same background color.

  • Can you change the background colors in templates on Pages?

    I love the newsletter templates in Pages, but I can't figure out a way to change the background color. I am supposed to use specific colors so I was hoping there was a way to change the background colors in some of the tables. Is there a way?

    Hi, yes, I clicked the box that I wanted to change the background in. I made sure that the correct box was selected and not the text box on top of it. Then I clicked Fill on the top bar and selected the color that I wanted to change it to. I only wanted to change the color in certain boxes - I didn't want to change the entire background of the newsletter template. I hope I explained this ok

  • How do i change the background color in pages

    I am using the app on an iPad2. I I would like to know how to change the background color.

    Create a rectangle, and fill the whole page with it. Change the colour and then use text boxes to put writing on the background. Its a bit complicated because the background can move when your moving text boxes and making the rectangle bigger but you'll get the hang of it. I hope Apple can make this easier to do!
