Pages, change the color

I have no idea why but I am having problem changing the color of some objects in Pages. I have a rectangle and I click on it and it highlights it but when I try to change the color, the color circle changes but not the rectangle. I don't get it, I have changed things before. Any ideas? They are the menu cards for my wedding in a few days and I am freaking out
Thank you!

Celia,
Sorry you're having problems with this. After I read your email, I inserted a rectangle into a blank document, clicked on the Graphic inspector, selected Color Fill from the menu, then clicked on the color swatch. When I clicked on the color wheel, my object changed color. I then tried it a different way, using the crayon icon. I clicked on a crayon, and again my object changed color.
Try using the crayons. Click on one of them, and if the object doesn't change color, click in the color swatch, then drag the color to the object. See if that works.

  • Can't change the color of text of links on my Welcome Page

    I have a Welcome page with four links that happen to be text that I dragged over from my list of sites. I can change the text style and size but I cannot change the color from the default reddish brown.

    To change the color of any hyperlinks, you need to select the link, go to the Hyperlink page, choose the Format option, and then select the color you want for Normal, Rollover, Visited and Disabled.
    This should work.
    You can also set the default colors and formats you want for all other entries on that same page.

  • Where do I change the color of this text in the blog page?

    I'm trying to add a blog page to my non-template iWeb site. On the Main Page, I'm unable to change the color of the font in the hyperlinks, where the default reads "Day of Longboarding" and "Read more…". I don't know what I might be overlooking. Any pointers? Thanks…

    That's not something iWeb has a menu item for.  However with the proper javacode you can change a lot about the navbar. This deoo page describes how: Change Navbar Text and Background Color.

  • Is it possible to change the color of imported art in pages, say from B&W to a color?  ... or even to make it a gradation of color?

    Is it possible to change the color of imported art in pages, say from B&W to a color?  ... or even to make it a gradation of color?

    Make a Shape > Inspector > Graphic > Tinted Image Fill > Scale to fit > browse to image > click on the color patch to change the color to what you want
    or
    Drag in an image > overlay it with a Shape > select the color for the shape and change its Opacity
    Shapes may have Gradient and Advanced Gradient (multiple colors) fills both linear and radial. Both are in the Graphic Inspector as is Opacity.

    how to change the color background in Pages for iPad?

    You can find many themes at https://github.com/hdoria/xcode-themes  There's a download zip button on the right side of the page.
    Unzip and and copy the .dvtcolortheme files into /Users/YourUsername/Library/Developer/XCode/UserData/FontAndColorThemes Create the directory if it doesn't exist.
    If you can't find the Library directory you can get to it by using Finder's "Go to Folder..." option under "Go" or press shift + cmd + G then type the path.

  • How to change the color of blog titles on blog archive page?

    So while I'm waiting for apple to fix iweb's publishing problem, I might as well do a revamp of my site in the meantime.
    One thing I've been itching to change, but can't is the color of the blog titles on the main blog archive page? They show up in red, even when I change the color on the actually blog entry page to blue. Can anyone please help?

  • Is there any way to change the color scheme in a document in Pages?

    I have come from a PC using Publisher for a weekly newsletter and am trying to use Pages to accomplish the same thing.  i want to change the color scheme from week to week and have not found a way to accomplish this.
    I am currently using Word for Mac for this, but I would like to move over to Pages.  I'm playing with it some, but can't seem to find a way to change the color of the publication from week to week.  To change to another template all together would cause me to have to reinvent the wheel each and every week, and I'm not willing to do that.
    Adobe Illustrator is an option, but it looks mighty complicated to set it up...  And I've balked at the price tag.
    Any suggestions?

    Pages does not have Themes like Word.
    There might be other ways to achieve what you want by swapping master objects and changing colors of Styles. A bit more work but not horrendously more.
    You can name color swatches in the Color Picker so you could set up a set of colors there then update styles and objects systematically using those swatches.
    Illustrator would be an extremely poor choice for a Newsletter.
    Have a look at the new Swift Publisher 3 in the App Store, currently 30% off. They have added some very good tools that have brought it into a much more Pro usable form. Including many key features that Pages lacks.

  • Changing the color of the link to the current page

    How can I change the link on the current page to display a different color until the user redirects to another page. I am wanting to keep all my links visible and simply change the color of the link that the user is on.
    I think I am going to use the 'pFlowStepId'.
    I am using a navigation bar that redirects to pages within the application but one link redirects to a url.
    Thanks in advance!

  • How do I create a duplicate image inside the same page? Then how do I change the color of that image

    how do I create a duplicate image inside the same page? Then how do I change the color of that image from black to red?

    Hello there!
    Here is one way to create a duplicate image and colorize it. As you can see below, I have one image right now, that I want to duplicate.
    My layers panel looks like below.
    To duplicate your image, click the downward arrow on the right side of your Layer Panel.
    Select Duplicate Layer. This will duplicate the layer that the image is on.
    Select "OK" to approve the duplication.
    As you can now see in the Layers panel, the image is duplicated. The new layer is now at the top of the Layer panel.
    Now to colorize your image, go to Window > Adjustments.
    The Adjustments panel will now be opened. Select the Hue and Saturation icon as seen circled in red.
    The Hue and Saturation propertied panel will be opened. I selected "Colorize", and adjusted the hue and saturation bar to achieve the level red in my photo.
    As you can see below, the image is now red.
    Now i want to make sure only ONE of my image layers is red. I moved the Hue and Saturation layer to only be on top of the bottom layer. The image on the top layer now will not be affected by the red.
    Select the move tool, so I can now move the image layers so we can see both of them.
    With each image layer selected, you can take the move tool and move the images. I moved mine on top of eachother and you can see my red layer (bottom) and the non red layer (top).
    I hope that helps. i have also included helpful links.
    Please post back with any questions,
    Janelle

  • Can you change the color of the page?

    Can you change the color of the page using In Design CS5.5 ?
    How?

    Are you intending to print a color onto the page to change the color or perhaps you need a colored background for onscreen output? Or are you planning on printing on already-colored stock?
    For the former, use Scott's suggestion, for the latter edit the Paper swatch.

  • Every time I try to replace text on a brochure template, the colors inexplicably change- and when I try and change the color, it doesn't let me- help, very frustrated:)  Please respond in laymen's terms:P

    Hello Everyone,
    I am working with the Green Grocery Newsletter Template, and I am trying to substitute the text.  As an example of my issue, when I highlight the title text and start typing, it turns blue, even though the text color box still shows green.  Actually, any text I try to replace turns blue!  If I try to change the color of my blue text, the text color box shows the new color, but the text on the template is of course, still blue.
    Please help:)! So frustrated and on a deadline.
    Thank you:)!

  • I need to change the color of the font in my Bookmark Toolbar. Unable to read all bookmarks.

    No longer have a question about editing the Bookmarks Toolbar. I may be dense, but I have not discovered how I may change the text (font) color when using View, Bookmarks, Custom. I see the capability to choose to use text and image, but not to change the color of the text. The ability to "bold" the text would probably be sufficient. I will revisit the Getting Started page and select other background colors to try and alleviate the problem. Persona or thema colors conflict with black text (for my older eyes - I have a vision problem.).

    You can make such a change with code in userChrome.css
    Add code to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css userChrome.css] below the @namespace line.<br />
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration#How_to_edit_configuration_files

    color: black !important;
    background-color: -moz-dialog !important;

  • Is it possible to change the color of a layer of a Customs CSS from an External Style sheet?

    Hi,
    I have sucessfully link External .css  file to my HTML page and able to change the font size of the headlines and the paragraph.
    What I am not able to do is to ADD the color my Custom CSS from the External sheet.  I have difined the color attribute as a 'Advance'
    and gave it the same name "#bigwraper" that is has in my HTML file.
    Attached is the color outline of my 'Blank Layout' with colors?
    Thank you.

    Hi Murray,
    I am building a web site on which the entire content would be changed at least daily. The website would have similar design to www.Helium.com
    The page will have CCS layout boxes in which different content would  be pasted.
    To re-phrase my question:  I want to know how to change the color of a layer from an external style sheet?
    Because my home page 'Sidebar' and colors would be the same for all page, only the content of different pages would be different.  If I want to change a color of my web side pages, I need to learn how to do it in one spot through an External Style Sheet.
    I am amble to link my external style sheet and to change H1 tag and to give it different colors. But I was not sucess with change the color of a layer on which my content sits around.
    I took out the color from my HTML page and gave the same name to the layer in my External Style Sheet with the same color.
    Hope my question and the reason I was able to clarify.
    cheers,

  • How do I change the color of the back and forward arrow to green

    In Windows 7 the color of the back and forward page arrow is blue.
    On my desktop computer using Windows XP the color of the back and forward page arrow is green. This is much easier on my eyes.
    Is there a way to change the color to green in Windows 7?

    Firefox on Windows XP uses a different default theme than Firefox on Vista & 7. Try using the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7119/ XP on Vista] theme, this should replicate the XP theme on Windows 7.
