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.

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!

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.

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 {
          new ButtonSelect();

CS : Background color changes after saving image to jpeg,

Hi,
We have written a script for automatically saving the image to a JPEG format file. We are using VB.NET along with CS Script. To achieve that, we are doing the following:
we are resizing the images and setting the mode to RGB and make it 8-Bit/channel. We are using some default background color like FFFFFF (255,255,255) and FF88FF (255,136,255). These gets changed to FEFEFE (254,254,254) and FF88FF (255,136,255) changes to
'FE87FF'(254,135,255) dropping a point or so.
If any one works on that kindly let me know what is the problem. How to prevent the changes of background color.
Regards,
Amitabh

Color changes when saving

I have a PSD file that I've been working on. I've tried saving it as jpeg, png, and tiff, and every time it makes the colors more saturated and more red. I've tried opening it in Windows Photo Viewer, Firefox, and Chrome and the color is changed in all of them. Oddly enough however, if I open the photo on my iphone, in Windows Paint, or in Photoshop again, the colors remain unchanged.
Color Profile is sRGB and I have it set to embed the profile.
The proof setup is Working CMYK. I tried changing it to Monitor RGB and the picture looked the same.
Any help is greatly appreciated because this is driving me insane.

Thanks for the help twenty one and Noel but I think I need to be a little bit more clear on what it is I would like to accomplish. Basically I have a photo that displays two different ways: normal saturation and oversaturated. I would like it to always display at normal saturation, no matter what computer or what program it's being viewed with. Currently the only programs I've found that always display it correctly are Windows Paint and Internet explorer, neither of which are color managed. Is there any way to accomplish this or do I just have to accept the fact that it will always look different depending on what it's being viewed with?
Information I think may be relevant to accomplishing this goal:
The PSD always appears oversaturated in photoshop now whereas it used to look fine. I have no idea what I did to change this but I've tried doing a system restore and resetting my photoshop settings to default and it has had no effect.
Under Color Settings, it shows the RGB working space as sRGB IEC61966-2.1. However the info panel shows the PSD as being untagged RGB. The image mode is RGB color.
I've messed around with assigning new color profiles and nothing works. The only thing that makes photo look normal again is turning on proof and setting it to Monitor RGB.
I tried saving two different jpeg files, one where I checked ICC Profile sRGB IEC61966-2.1 in the save as dialogue box and one where I did not. Upon opening both files in photoshop, the file that had the sRGB box checked shows up as being sRGB in the info panel and the file that did not have the box checked shows up as untagged RGB in the info panel, as one would expect.
Both the untagged RGB and the sRGB show up the way I want them to in Windows Paint and Internet Explorer (normal saturation), neither of which are color managed programs.
Using Firefox (color managed), the untagged RGB shows up correctly and the sRGB file is oversaturated.
Using photoshop and Windows Photo Viewer (color managed), both the tagged and the untagged photos are oversaturated.
It should also be noted that the above results hold true on my computer and a second computer that I tested. However, on two other computers that I tested, both the tagged and the untagged photos appear correctly using Windows Photo Viewer, Paint, Firefox, and Internet Explorer. Based off of what I've read about Color Management I find these results very peculiar. Particularly the fact that sRGB and untagged RGB files show up differently on Firefox but the same on Windows Photo Viewer since both programs are color managed. I also find it very odd that after years of using photoshop without any knowledge of color management I've never had a problem with it until now.
Again, I would like the photo to always look the way it does when using Paint or Internet Explorer or when saving it as an untagged RGB and viewing it on Firefox. Thanks again for any help you can provide because this is driving me insane.

Color Changes when saving psd to jpg

Some of my psd when saved to jpg take on a distinctly bluish cast. Has anyone seen this? What is the cause? How can it be defeated?

When You save a jpg with profile embedded does the appearance still change?
Photoshop uses the Color Settings’ Working Space for displaying files that are not Color Managed, therefore one should embed the profile – unless space considerations (especially for internet-use) speak against it, in which case one should usually convert the image to srgb anyway.

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.

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.

Colors change when saving to PDF from InDesign

I admittedly don't understand color handling, no matter how much I seem to read about it. Lately my files that I've been exporting to PDF from Indesign have looked slightly different and odd to me once they're converted to PDF. Sometimes the colors are dull, sometimes the drop shadows are a weird grey... Here's the latest example. Perhaps someone has some wisdom for me here...
I created this poster in Illustrator. Here's how it looks in Illustrator:
Then I went into Indesign and linked the file. (this is strange...) When I display the file with "typical display", it displays as such:
That looks pretty good... But when I set the display to "high quality display", I get this:
This is also the result I get when I open the exported file in Adobe Acrobat Pro. Why the color change?
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Thanks, Will...
So, upon investigating, I realized that my color space in Illustrator was RGB... Damn... I must have overlooked that... When I convert (in Illustrator) to CMYK, I get those strange colors again.
When I export to PDF, the Output is "no color conversion", so it's not being converted to CMYK yet...
Plus, I just linked the AI files in Indesign when I placed them in there.
So, Indesign must be converting the file to CMYK? And that's why the colors change once I convert to PDF? What do you think?
Also, I used InDesign to place the files so that I could create a 2-page pdf easily that the printer could work with. I had a 4-up handbills page in there that I was planning on printing as well.
So, if this looks best in RGB, what do you think about me sending an RGB file to the printer and then printing it that way? I've been told that RGB is no good for printing, but I've also read otherwise as well...
Thanks again!!

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.

Color Change when saving from CS4

I have an image from which I wish to make a selection and save as a .png or .gif file on transparent background to use in a collage. When I re-save the image from CS4, the color is changed quite drastically (face from color to ash!). The image was shot with a P&S as .jpg but opens in PS first in the cameraRaw dialogue for unknown reasons:
http://www.gobeck.ca/screenshots/cameraRAW.jpg
When I save it from CS4:

Result form the selection:

How do I resolve this?

For disabling JPEG in ACR go to EDIT => Preferences => Camera Raw and switch it to "Disable JPEG Support" at the bottom in JPEG and TIFF handling.
It seems that you apply the ProPhoto colorspace via ACR.
So the result can have two reasons: either the JPEG was saved untagged (converted to ProPhoto but without embedded colorspace) or it was tagged and saved with an embedded profile, but the other applications are non- or wrong colormanaged. Both will result in a desaturated image like it shows up to the right:
How the appear in a non-colormanaged browser, see the names:
Also the # in the image name (3rd image) indicates that your color settings (workspace settings) in PS are different from the colorspace of the image.
Either apply sRGB when you go through ACR or disable the open JPEG with ACR feature as desribed above, which should preserve the original colorspace.

Color changing when Saving Photo -

We sell coins on our website - So the color makes all the difference in the world to weather you want to buy the coin or not. We use a Nikon to take the pics - Pics come out great, the colors looks like actual coin when viewing in photoshop and in the XP viewer and when we ever have to print the pic. Here's the problem, when we go to save for web its changes the color drastically. A penny that once had a red tone to it now has a brown tone. I've read all over the place for ways to fix it and we've tried them all. Changing the monitor color profile, converting the profile, etc. I understand that everyone's monitors are different and everyone is gonna see it differently anyways, but it would be nice if the pic would like the same on our computer vs the website. It seems like when we first starting do this several yrs ago we didnt have this problem. Has things changed within the program and/or the web to have made these changes happen? Is this something we are gonna have to deal with? We dont have the time to adjust every single picture to make sure the save to web looks right.
ANY SUGGESTION....

The typical 'save for web' function removes any color profile info. You can save an ICC profile with the image in 'save for web' but only a few browsers (Safari and optionally in Firefox) will care about it. Most folks view images without color management as sRGB.
This means that you probably need to be working on your images in sRGB. It seems you have a different profile right now.
>It seems like when we first starting do this several yrs ago we didnt have this problem.
That is because we were not messing with color management then.

How do I change the tab background color in Firefox 4?

I just upgraded to Firefox 4. Tabs are now fine black font on dark grey background -- very hard to read. How do I change the tab background color?
I have searched and the closest I can come is some instructions for modifying .css files, and it is not clear that those instructions will impact the tab background color.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Similar question asked by TH received another response.
Here is the address of that question and answer:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/804464?s=change+tab+color+firefox+4&as=s
I like the solution recommended there.
Added information - after several days experience, I notice that some tabs occasionally revert to the original dark grey. So I am still looking for a better solution, ideally within Firefox rather than via add on. This seems like a basic setting for the browser that should be easy to change, rather than something so complex that I need an add on to change it. Or just build it without such a dark grey background to begin with and I would not need to change it.

Background color changed from white to yellow and =25% changed to %% on email

I type =25% on my email and sent out, background color changed from white to yellow and =25% changed to %%.

Try leaving a space after the =
Thus: = 25%
Where and when did it change? Did it change inside Thunderbird? Did it change in the Sent folder? Or in a reply to you?
= and % are used in certain types of email encoding; =20% often appears, meaning character 0x20 which is 32 denary or the space character. It is often used where an explicit space would be illegal, and this is common in URLs and other links. I'm thinking that =25% similarly has a special meaning. It ''shouldn't'' get decoded, but software is buggy.
I can't reproduce it here, which is why I'm asking about how and when it changes. Where does the Microsoft software come into it?
