[SOLVED] tmux ncmpcpp showing solid colors

I noticed this happening after I switched from xterm to urxvt, and it ONLY happens in urxvt. THIS is what is happening and only happens while scrolling. Any ideas as to what's going on?

No problem: please remember to mark the thread as solved. (It might also help to edit the title and stick tmux in there in terms of searchability).
While I'm here, I might as well ask: Should I be setting TERM manually anywhere at all? And should I be setting $TERM to something to remove any chance of other compatibility breaks? It looks like leaving it this way would prevent that.
No. Set it in your tmux.conf as per the man page quoted above. Let your terminal and terminfo handle it outside tmux - that will avoid any "irregularities".

Yosemite unable to show solid black as background color

Hi,
After I updated my yosemite to 10.10.2 I am unable to show solid black as my background color. I have external screen where I have solid black as background. But my MacBook color is Gray compare to that.
Any solutions?

Don't know, but just for the heck of it, you might try changing one of them to something else, first, then setting them that way. It may just simply not allow you to set both to the same color at the same time (just a WAG).
E.G.
setBackground Yellow
setForeground White
setBackground Black

What is the purpose of the chain (lock symbol) between a solid color layer and its vector mask?

What is the purpose of the chain (lock symbol) between a solid color layer and its vector mask in the layer panel when creating shape layers with a shape tool? I'm just curious when locking or unlocking the solid color layer and its vector mask can make a difference.

I don't understand what you said and your shape layer looks different then mine using CS5.
When the chain is deselected, I can't do anything with the move tool on the shape layer. This is the only difference I can find. Making the solid color uniform or not doesn't change anything.
Your example shows that you moved the position of the solid color, how did you do that? I can create a solid color layer and change its uniform look by applying an effect like gradient but I can't move the solid color itself around. How is this possible?

How to create transparent text on a solid color background?

I want to create a transparent text on a solid color backround, and I need text transparency to go all the way to through the image (i.e. do not show the solid color background). I have the transparent background layer, the solid rectangle layer that occupies part of the image, and the text layer (with text element) on the top of the solid rectangle layer. How do I make text transparency to go all the way through? Here is a similar example for Photoshop CS, only in my case, the backround layer is transparent (i.e. there is no picture): http://www.photoshopessentials.com/photo-effects/transparent-text-area/. Basically, I need to make the letters see through, so they show the backround color on which the image will be placed. Is it possible to do in Photoshop Elements? I'm using version 9 on Windows 7. Thanks.

Thank you all for the suggestions, especially 99jon. 99jon's walktrhough is helpful, but I was hoping to find a workaround that would allow keeping transparent text that goes all the way through all other layers to transparent background as a text level, but once I flatten the image, I'd lose the text layer, so I cannot make any changes to it (like slightly change the font, size, style, face, etc). Let me clarify a bit what I'm trying to do to see if there is an even better option.
Say, I need to have a 300x300 pixel image that (forget about photos) consists of a solid-color circle (circle can be white, black, red, blue, or any solid color, or gradient, does not matter) on a transparent background, and inside of this circle I'd like to cut out a word (say, the word "TEST" with no bevels or other decoration, just flat font) all the way to the transparent background. I just need a circle with text cut out and showing around the circle and through the word "TEST". So if a circle is white and I place the image on a blue background, the word "TEST" would be in blue (so would be the area around the circle).
Is there a way to set it up to allow changing the color of the circle (say, from white to black, or blue, or red) and keep smooth edges of the text (and circle) blending with the background (i.e. avoid jagged edges) without redoing every color variation from scratch? Like, getting some master file which would define size and position of the elements,a s well as font, etc, and from this master file, use simple adjustments to change the color.
Ideally (in my dream world), there would be an option for the text element to be of transparent color that would go through all layers below it. But there must be a not too complex way to do this, right?

I am getting a grid like pattern over solid colors durring a disolve

I recently upgraded to Studio. When a sequence dissolves, especially to white, I am seeing a grid like pattern. I have also noticed this pattern in shots where there is a solid color in one location for a period of time. Any ideas?
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Check your view options in the canvas or viewer pulldown menu (little radio button looks like a pill in the top center-right or either window.) Sounds like you have your background set to checkerboard 1 or 2. That grid is telling you there is nothing to be seen here. Set it to black if you want it black. This won't take away the fact that there is transparency mind you, it just shows transparency as black. You can choose white, as well.

Selecting solid colors with Eyedropper

Where is the option to have the Eyedropper only select solid colors and not multiple colors when sampling colors? I select the Eyedropper tool and do not see any options for this in the control panel.
I only have options for Sample Size, which layers to sample from, and whether to show sampling ring.
Thanks.

Not sure what you really mean by "solid color." A 1 px sampler will sample the solid color of that one pixel. If you increase the sampler size, it will start to average the sampled pixels. It will still be a solid color, jut a blend of the sampled pixel. So if you want just the exact color that you're sampling, you should go with the 1 px size.

Bar Chart - No Solid Colors!

Post Author: xedious
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
How do I format a bar chart so that ALL the bars show up as black and white patterns? In design mode, I can see three 'risers' that I can set the pattern and color on, but when the report runs and there are more bars due to data, crystal assigns random, solid colors.
Thanks!

Right click your chart in design view ->chart expert->options--->you should see a chart color section in the upper left hand corner with two radio buttons;one for color and one for black and white. I'm using Crystal XI and it works for me. Not sure what version of Crystal you're in.

Tracking solid color

How do you track a random area on a solid color? For example, I want to import a photograph of the sun and layer it on top of the video. I want it to track an area on the blue sky. I tried motion track in AE and mocha. The tracking doesn't stay still.

I"m very confused. Do you want to insert a photograph of the sun in a video shot with a moving camera??? If so then there needs to be something in the video that you can track. Then you apply the tracking info to the 'sun'. Another option would be to use Camera Tracking to analyze the camera movement then find a target as far away from the camera as possible and add a null and a camera. Make your sun a 3D layer (it may disappear) then hold down the shift key and make the null the parent of the sun. The sun will snap into position. Now just drag it into the spot in the sky where you want the sun to be.
Another option is to stabilize the shot so that it is not moving, then add in your sun, then re-introduce the motion to the shot. Here's a quick tutorial that shows how to do this. The target would be the sun layer. You would not set up a track matte, but you would just find something in the movie that you could track to stabilize the movie so that it does not move. If there is a lot of camera motion then you would need to use two points. Then you would add your sun and follow the steps to add movement back to the movie and apply the inverse of the motion to the sun.
If none of these techniques work for you please give us a better description of what you are trying to do.

Can I show a color bar instead of a color bullet in iCal Monthly view for all my events in all calendars?

In the Monthly view of iCal the only events that show a color bar in the event is the Birthday Calendar. All other events in all my other calendars only show a color bullet next to the event (unless I click on that event which then shows as a color bar). I would like to know if it is possible for all the calendar events to have a color bar in the monthly view instead of just that tiny color bullet.

Greetings Judith,
Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed. By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
Example:
Today is 4-16-2012.
If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone. If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
Once the events are removed go back to iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
Hope that helps.

How can I make the background one solid color? It is too difficult and noticeable when I use the retouch button and try to erase all the creases in my backdrop. So, how can I have just a solid white background?

When talking about a specific image posting the image may be useful.
One can use a Layer Mask and add a white Layer underneath.

Wallpaper switch to solid color after log-out / log-in between different user account on the same iMac

On my iMac, i created different accounts for the member of the family. When i switch from one to an other account and go back to the first account the wallpaper change automaticly to a solid color wallpaper.

Show one color at a time

right now i am just brainstorming my next art project so i don't really have anything specific (which might make this harder to answer but bear with me)
ok, i am hoping to create a pretty complex peice. lots of shapes and detail, no gradients though.
is there a way to only show one color at a time.... that makes no sense, let me grab an example...
ok, i'll try again, if i was going to do this in illustrator, i would have that gold on top all on one layer. then on top of that i would have the red eyes on one layer. is there a way i can see all the gold but only the gold that will actually show up when i print it? basically like when they do prints, they print one color at a time and it's not like they overlap a bunch of layers. can i do that like on screen?
i guess if i had to i could do it in photohop, make a brush out of the red layer and erase those parts of the gold... but i dont want to do it that way, can i do it in illustrator?
thanks guys, i know that makes no sense...
if i have a bunch of objects overlapping each other

ALWAYS state what version you're using.
It sounds like you simply want to preview color separations on screen. If so, and if you have Acrobat Pro, you can:
1. Save the file as a press-ready PDF.
2. Open in Acrobat.
3. Preview the separations in the Advanced>PrintProduction>OutputPeview dialog.
Understand: "Color separations" means color as it will be sent to the individual printing plates, not individual "colors" you've used in the design (unless the design is entirely spot color). If that's what you want, you can:
1. Select an object of a particular color.
2. Use one of the Select Same commands in the Select menu.
3. Store the selection. (Select>SaveSelection)
4. Object>Hide>Selection (leaving other-colored objects visible)
5. Similarly store selections for each different color. Use the Hide Selection command on which every ones you don't want to see.

How do I change my Desktop Picture to a solid color?

Hello folks, I'm trying to change my desktop picture to a solid black color in Leopard. How do I do that? I went into the desktop preferences under System Preferences but under solid colors, they do not have black. And I have no idea how to add more colors to the few selections there. Can someone help me out please? Thank you.

http://www.slashdotdash.net/articles/2006/12/19/mac-os-x-desktop-black-backgroun d-wallpaper
That's one idea, they have a solid black .png file on there, and you can either set it as your desktop and tile it, or follow their instructions.

Can't create a solid color fill layer !!

I wonder if someone can help this PS newbie before I go insane ?
If I create a color fill layer & want to set it to a solid yellow color I can NOT get it to change color
no matter what I do on the color picker it remains white
I start clicking the small circle icon ( half black / white ) & selecting solid color
I click on the yellow bit of the vertical color bar & use the cursor to select the precise shade of yellow
to the top right there is a small rectangle
the color I choose - yellow - appears on the top half , the bottom half is white
I click OK so my small box is top-half yellow, bottom half white - the layer stays stubbornly white
shouldn't it go the color I choose ??
Now whats driving me mad is that last week I was doing this for fun
I had a jpeg file of a book page that I could create a highlighter pen effect by putting a yellow layer on top & sliding
the opacity down to 20% or whatever
I have opened one of the psd files I created & the color fill layer is yellow
the left-side palette thumbnail is yellow
when I edit the color the small rectangle is entirely yellow - top & bottom
I don't know what I am doing differently or not doing that I need to do ...
any ideas gratefully received !

YESSSS !!!!
sanity restored.....you, sir, are a genius.
thankyou.

Browsers not showing same color from DW

Folks, I have somelinks I am designing in photoshop and
placing in a table in DW. I made the background color of the table
the same as the grey in my link graphic by sampling the color with
the eye dropper on the graphic.
The greys from the table background and the link show up fine
in Safari, as hough there is no separation in color, however in
Internet Explorer and Firefox there is clearly a separation of
color.
I am on a Mac using OS X if this makes any difference.
I need help.

That's not what web safe colors means today, and in any even
different
monitors will show your colors somewhat differently.
