Portlet Background Color Disappears when displayed

Hi,
I am using ver 9.0.4.0.99 of Portal and I'v created several Navigation Pages for the top banner and footer of my pages.
The banner is divided into two regions each holding an image. To 'fill in' the white space that surrounds the images I've specified a background color (blue) in a 'banner style' and added it to each region of the Navigation Page.
When we look at the Navigation Page alone, all looks well, but when we add the Navigation Page as a portlet to our root page in a banner region, the background color just disapears. I am left with two images surrounded by
whitespace.
I have just recently done the same process (nav pages with separate styles) in version 9.0.2.6 with another company and I did not have this problem. It worked fine. I even went back to make sure I followed the exact same steps and settings.
Has something changed with this version (9.0.4.0.99)?
Any ideas what we are doing wrong? Thx for your input.

In the properties for your navigation page, on the Others tab, ensure the "Use Style Of Page On Which Portlet Is Placed " checkbox is unchecked. This should force it to use the style you picked in the banner page and not on the display page. Please note this checkbox only has affect on item regions in the navigation page. Portlet regions on the navigation page will take the colors from the style on the display page.
Hope this helps,
Candace

Background audio disappears when an interaction slide appears

I have a (Captivate 6 produced) project which includes approx 40 slides and it looks to be running smoothly when published.
However, I have imported a background music audio track which I want to play (and then loop) during the course of the whole course - however, whenever it reaches a slide which has an interaction on it, the music disappears and then returns when a non-interaction-based slide is reached. Disappears again when the next slide is reached that contains an interaction, etc.
I am unable to test in earlier versions of Captivate and so I am wondering whether this is an issue with this version of the program i.e. background audio disappears when an interaction slide is shown?

We don't have the 6.1 update yet, but I did find a workaround for this (although it's not perfect). With Captivate 6 there is now a "Play Audio" action that you can assign to the Slide Properties "On Enter" action. When I did this, the narration continues to play even after the Flash interaction appears in the timeline. So for any narrated slides that have Flash interactions, you need to:
1) remove the Audio narration that is imported to the Slide (Audio > Remove > Slide from the menu bar)
2) On the Slide Properties - On Enter action, select Play Audio, then select the appropriate narration file for that slide.
This seemed to work -- the only problem is that if you use the "Play/Pause" button in the Adobe playback navigation bar, the button seems to get confused and changes to the Play state while the audio is still playing (instead of staying in the Pause state until the audio finishes as it does when the audio is imported to the Slide itself as narration). Not sure how to fix that issue except to remove the Pause/Play button from the playbar and just use the Next/Back buttons. And if you use navigation buttons instead of the Adobe playbar, you don't need to worry about this.
Hope this helps!

Item Background Color changes when placed in production (Forms 10g)

Hello All,
I have searched the forum on this topic, but have not been successful in finding a topic/solution for multi-line items that need to render a different color than the rest.
I have used set_item_instance_property (and set_item_property) as well as using a VA to resolve this issue to no avail.
When I view the form in the browser - initially in query-mode, I see the color that I have set for the item. Once the query is fetched and I am in non-query mode (display), the items background color is replaced to the standard color (off yellow) for non-editable fields.
I have taken all of the subclasses off, used the item property from the pallette as well as manually programmed within a trigger and cannot get this item to stay the color that I have set.
Can anyone help me get this working?

Are you using the 0 to 100 rgb color assignments you see in the Forms Builder color palette? If so, that is your problem. At run time, you have to convert the color numbers to 0 to 255 numbers. Just multiply each of the three parts by 2.55
Or maybe there is come code running elsewhere in your form that is setting the color after your code is run.
Search your form for background_color.

Portlet background color

I'm new to plumtree. The question I have is how can I change the default white background color of a page? I created portlet and add it into myPage. But the background color is white.

Hi, Mike.
It sure doesn't look like it from the administration tool! I will check
around and see if anyone has figured out how to do this!

Why does JButton background color change when clicking ?

Hello,
I have defined :
JButton mybutton = new JButton(Icon xxx) ;
with no associated text and I set both foreground and background colors to black, and an empty border.
This is because the background color of the container which contents this button is also black and I want to see only the button icon.
When I click on the icon , the button background color becomes grey. How can I change this to make it remains black ?
Thanks a lot.
Gege

Well, the color changes because that is how the look and feel is defined,
presumably to give better feedback to the user that she has clicked the
button.
If you don't want this, you could try using a different L&F which doesn't do this.
Alternatively, If you've only got the one button, you could just do
    UIManager.put( "Button.select", Color.BLACK );If you have multiple buttons, and you want the other buttons to behave
normally, you can extend the one button and have it change the color
while it is pressed, e.g.,
import java.awt.*;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.swing.*;
public class ButtonSelect extends JFrame {
     public ButtonSelect() throws IOException {
          super();
          setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          panel.add( new JButton( "Normal" ) );
          Image img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage( new URL("http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif" ) );
          ImageIcon ii = new ImageIcon( img );
          JButton b = new JButton( ii ) {
               static final private String KEY = "Button.select";
               public void paint( Graphics g ) {
                    Color save = null;
                    if ( getModel().isArmed() && getModel().isPressed() ) {
                         save = UIManager.getColor( KEY );
                         UIManager.put( KEY, Color.WHITE );
                    super.paint( g );
                    if ( save != null )
                         UIManager.put( KEY, save );
          b.setForeground( Color.WHITE );
          b.setBackground( Color.WHITE );
          b.setFocusPainted( false );
          panel.add( b );
          getContentPane().add( panel );
          pack();
          setVisible( true );
     public static void main( String[] a ) throws IOException {

AS2 TextInput Background Color - Issues when trying to change dynamically

Hello,
I'm having issues changing a TextInput background color after the initial onLoad using AS2.
On load, I have no issues setting the background color with this code:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
    this.background = true;
    this.backgroundColor = 0x1E1C1C;
However, I have a form validator run when focus is lost but yet I cannot set the background color at that point. For example, I'm trying to set the background color to orange and text to white if the field's contents are invalid. Even something simple like this doesn't affect the colors.
Code:
on (focusOut) {
        this.backgroundColor = 0xFAA523;
        this.borderColor = 0xFAA523;
        this.borderStyle = "solid";
        this.color = 0xFFFFFF;
        this.text = 'Enter your first name';
All code is in actions for the TextInput itself.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Actually, that's not the solution. You need to use setStyle to access the backgroundColor property when the TextInput is already generated.
This worked for me:
this.setStyle("backgroundColor",0x1E1C1C);

Cell/Background color changes when copying to other Excel 2010 document

When you copy and paste report cells (e.g. CO report outputted in Office integration, MS Excel) to a new Excel file, the background color changed dramatically (to bright red).
SAP Theme: SAP Signature Theme
Excel 2010
We tried paste option > match destination formatting but does not help.
Anyone has similiar problems? Appreciate any help.

dear friend,
you would do:
1. search SAP Notes;
2. check out the updates/patches for your MS Office;
3. replicate it on another computer/another sap user (make sure it is a local issue)
good luck!

Background Image Disappear When Refreshing

Hi,
Recently, I encounter a problem for building my application. I define my own background for my application in formsweb.cfg. The background load the first time I access the page, but it disappears when I press refresh button. So, can anyone tell me why and how can I going to fix it? Thank you.
Ramon

Ramon,
you don't specify a Forms version number, which makes it harder for us to help. It could be a problem in a Forms version that may be fixed in a subsequent patch. Without Forms release numer however, I cant tell. I suggest you contact customer support at metalink.oracle.com

Background colours disappear when question slide added in C4

I recently updgraded to Captivate 4. Since the upgrade I have encountered this problem. I am importing slides from power point. Some of the slides have a blue background. When I add a question slide in C4, the blue background does not show up when I Preview in web browser or Publish the file. The blue background is still there if I don't add any question slides. Any ideas on what is going on and how to prevent my blue backgrounds from disappearing?

Sorry... I was in the process of doing it yesterday, but here's what I did.
I have two versions of Captivate in my laptop, Captivate 3 & 5.
1. I opened Captivate 3 and started a project
2. Create a question pool in Captivate 3
3. I inserted a powerpoint slide with my gif animation in the slide
NOTE: If you want your gif to loop continuously, you must make sure you pause the project in Captivate before the end of the slide. It will not work if you extend the slide duration.
4. After importing the ppt slide with looping gif animation in captivate 3, I copied the slide (make sure you're not copying the invisible click box) and pasted it on top of each question in the pool.
5. Go to your timeline and send the slide to the background if necessary.
6. Line up/design your question slides.
7. Save and close the project.
8. Find the project and open with > Captivate 5
Your question pool should retain the animation.
I am working on creating a "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" game. I've seen it done before, but it always looks amateur. I wanted to do something more polished, with nicer graphics, appropriate sound effects and good transition slides. The gif animation is of two moving spotlights on the background of every question screen. I'd be happy to share a sample if I knew where to upload it to.

SWF background color changes when uploaded to server

I built my Flash all pretty, based upon a black background.
When ran on the local copy, the black shows up as black & the
Flash is like it should be. However, as soon as I upload it to the
server and run it from there, the Flash background changes to
white, which as you can imagine, royally screws up the visuals. Any
clue as to why it would do this?! I can't think of any reason why
it should. The server is in-house and will only be used for an
Intranet page, so any possible corruption over the web should be
negated. Help!!

I'd like to post a link, but like I said, it's only internal.
When I look at the HTML, it's set to black (background-color:
#000000). Also, when I load it, the page itself is black, but the
background of the Flash *only* has turned white. I can load the
exact same page on my local drive and it comes up black. I've got
publish settings to Flash 8 (my version) and AS 2.0. I checked that
first because I've published lower in the past and had
issues.

Numeric Control - Text and Background Color changes when operating inc/dec arrows

Hi,
I'm developing an application that has a panel with black background and green or red numbers. I've added numeric controls and configured the text color and text background color attributes accordinglingy. I set the numeric control to hot or validate control mode and show the inc/dec arrows, since I want to be able to incr/decr the numbers.
The problem is that when I run the application and I hit the inc/dec arrows, then the colors inside the numeric control frame become inverted: the black background becomes white and the green number becomes cyan. I've created a callback function assosicated with the numeric control and tried forcing the text and background color, in the EVENT_VAL_CHANGED section, using the SetCtrlAttrribute() function, but to no avail. Also added ProcessDrawEvents didn't help.
When I mouse click again outside the numeric control, then it reverts back to its original colors (green text, black background).
Any suggestions as to how I can fix this ?
I want it to keep its original colors at all times, even when I'm clicking the incr/decr arrows...
Kind regards,
pgriep
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ok, now I see what's happening.
The effect you are seeing is a resul of standard numeric control behaviour combined with the black bcakground: when you use arrows to increment/decrement a numeric control its value will be automatically highlighted; on the default background you'll see the white area and figures highlighted in black (white numbers on balck background). If you set the background to black the system will automatically change the colors used to highlight the text, and that's what you're seeing.
By the way, this does not happens if you use up and down keys on the keyboard: text is not highlighted so colors are not changing.
Additionally, this is not only valid for numerics: see the behaviour of the string controls on the bottom of your panel when you tab up to them. This effect does not happen on controls set as indicator like the big clock in the upper part of the panel.
The only way I can see to overcome this behaviour is to hide control built-in arrows and create your own up and down buttons with which you can manipulate the numeric control. I am attaching a modified version of your project with buttons on the left numeric; sorry for the poor aesthetic: I have used some arrow icons I had on my disk, you may want to create your own arrows with the colors and shape you prefer.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Background color changes when using AJAX

I'm using NetBeans and the plugin Project Dynamic Faces Ajax Components. Each time a radio button is selected a few textfields are hidden/shown.
But each time I press a radio button, my background color of my JSF page is changed (from blue) back to white.
Does anyone know how to disable this, or just how I can set the background of the page manualy in the java code.
I've tried this.setBackground(...); , but it doesn't work.

Hi. I currently use Canon, and i only see it in my RAW files. All camera firmware is up-to-date. I am running latest version of Aperture, but still running 10.6.8. I went through a bunch of old photos where there was a good red color of something and i was able to duplicate the problem each time. Where there was a large area of red, it was VERY noticable. Also, I used to shoot with Nikon and my NEF files do the same thing where there is a nice red. It seems to be an Aperature "thing."
What i find so curious, is that even if I make no adjustments to the Levels sliders, just checking the box alters the color, same with the Vignette brick. Also, I do color calibrate my monitor. thanks.

Tab background color changes when saving or downloading (Ubuntu) - bug ?

I'm using Firefox 20.0 on Linux Ubuntu.
When I'm opening and using Firefox, the active tab background is light gray, and the other tabs are black (with white/gray text). But as soon as I have downloaded a file (saving an image for example, or a pdf), the tabs change color: the non active tabs turn gray instead of black, and the tab text is almost unreadable (gray on gray).
I have disabled ALL extensions (including the Ubuntu/Unity extensions) and restarted Firefox, and get the same result. See screenshot with before/after downloading: http://imagesup.net/?di=113687926169
On the other hand, when I start Firefox in safe mode, all is well, the tabs don't change color when downloading or saving a file.
What to do? Could this be a bug ?

Hey, I'm on Ubuntu, too.
It seems like you don't use Ubuntu's default theme, or at least, you have some modifications there, right? Try disabling your customizations to see if it works, I never saw / heard of this problem anywhere.
Also update your Firefox, there are changes that your problem is fixed after updating.
Another suggestion would be hacking about:config, for example, it might be the Download Manager's arrow flashing ( just guessing ), so you might want to disable that and see if something changes.
search 'browser.download.manager' in about:config and play with those configs to see if anything changes.
