Transparent TextArea Background not text

i have a textarea with htmltext written...
now my requirement is that i need to make the background of textarea semi-transparent so that text could be read easily.
the only problem is that setting the alpha property makes text transparent too.
i need only the background to be transparent ....
pls somebody help me.

Select the text, hit F8 to turn it into a new MovieClip symbol. Now, inside the new clip, add a layer behind the text. In that layer place a shape - which you also turn into a movieClip and then you can set it's alpha.
On stage you just refer to the text inside of the clip to set it, rather than the text itself:
myClip.theText.text = "Hello World";
If you give the alpha shape behind the text an instance name you can then set the alpha independently too:
myClip.myShape.alpha = .5;

    Background, Images, & text is blacked out. I can not see any menus to edit anything...
    The curser shows there are links when you move over. I have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox and restarted my computer with no luck.
    I can not see the menus to try and reset Firefox or change any settings.
    HELP Please

    hello obrienn214, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
    in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

  • I am using the big date calendar template and when I submit it to apple for printing I lose the name of two months. These names are not text boxes. I see the names when I send it in but something happens during the transmission to apple. It was suggested

    I am using the big date calendar template in iPhoto. I am on Lion 10.7.2, macbook air. The names of the months are on each calendar page but something happens when I send the data to Apple. The names are part of the template. They are not text boxes. I lose two names on the calendar after it is sent to Apple. Apple suggested I make a pdf file of my calendar before sending it in and check to make sure every name shows. I did this with a calendar I just sent in. The calendar was correct. All names of the months were showing. After sending the data two month names disappeard because when it arrived by mail, it was incorrect. Apple looked at my calendar via a pdf file and it was incorrect.  This is second time this has happened. I called Apple and they had me delete several folders in the Library folder, some preferences and do a complete reinstall of iPhoto.  I have not yet remade the defective calendar. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem?

    Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
    You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar.  If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them.  Contact Apple for a refund.  Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

  • How can I show only text edits and not text formatting when using print comments summary?

    Acrobat 9.3.0 for Mac.
    Here is the scenario: I used the Compare command to see the changes between 2 PDFs. The resulting file some edits are inserts and some are deletions. I want to print a comments summary only showing the text edits. In the Compare Option pane, I select Text and deselect Images, Annotations, Formatting, Headers/Footers, and Backgrounds. Now on the screen I see inserts are highlighted in blue and deletions are marked with sort of a caret and vertical bar symbol. So all looks good at this point. However, when I show the Comments List, I see addtional comments that indicate "Replace - The following text attributes were changed: fill color." Those comments do not appear in the page view unless I check the Formatting check box to show them. With Formatting unchecked, I print a comments summary and all of the "Replace - Fill Color" comments" appear on the resulting comments summary.
    I only want to show text edits, not text formatting changes. So questions are:
    1. Why, when the Formatting checkbox is unchecked, do the text formatting comments still appear in the comments list when they do not appear on the page display.
    2. How can I print only the text content edits and not show the text formatting changes when using Print Comments Summary.

    Hi,
    You can set ExecuteWithParams as default activity in the task flow then method activity to return total no of rows passing to Router activity if your method has value 0 then call Create insert operation else do directly to page.
    Following idea could be your task flow
    Execute With param (default) > SetCurrentRowWithKey > GetTotalNoOfRows (VOImpl Method)
    |
    v
    Router
    1. If pageFlowScope outcome is 0 then call CreateInsert > MyPage
    2. if pageFlowScope outcome > 0 then MyPage
    hope it helps,

  • Setting Transfer Mode & Transparency level in a text box

    I am writing a text file to import into a quickTime movie to create subtitles. I would like to set the transfer mode and the transparency level inside my text file. Is there a way to do this?

    It's not as easy with QuickTime version 7 as it was in previous versions so some trial and error export may be required:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/jarticle.html?artnum=42643-en

  • Flex Mobile textArea styling the text?

    I've read in several documents about TLF not supported in Flex Mobile. I then read about text fields vs textArea and css Style sheets.

    Some browsers (Safari comes to mind) won't do borders at all,
    and others (I
    don't recall which) can actually get surly when you try. I
    don't recommend
    that you try to style form elements to that level.

  • I just upgraded to the latest edition of firefox for mac and I am getting this error message Textarea Backup] Existing text detected in 'add_comment_text', overwrite with this backup how can I get it to go away?

    I updated to Firefox 8.0 for Mac and when ever I try to log on to Facebook I get this error message Textarea Backup] Existing text detected in 'add_comment_text', overwrite with this backup? and then it says yes and gives you the choice of either canceling or ok and it doesn't go away when you click either button...What is going on?

    It is working now. I no longer get the message about the item not being available in the US and I can access the store.

  • Inbound RFC Data / Duplicate Note Texts

    Hello,
    Question: Is there a way for me to view the contents which have already been passed to an RFC in CRM (5.0) from Portal?
    Background:  We are experiencing an issue with duplicate note texts when displaying opportunity notes in Portal.  Note texts are being populated by an RFC call which in turn calls BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_CHANGEMULTI.  We are not able to recreate the issue in any test enviorment.  We are only able to identify the issue after it has already occurred in PRD on almost a daily basis. 
    As this appears to be a random occurance, I am hoping to compare the data passed to the RFC for a successful & errored example to identify any discrepancies in the data passed to the RFC.
    One thing I have noticed is that the duplicate texts appear to be occuring when a date/time stamp is not included at then end of the TEXT field of STXH, but have not been able to determine why a date/time stamp is added in one instance and not another.
    Any input would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    Hi Mats,
    I have the same problem. As I work-around, I added the following code to the transfer routine for 0TCTPRCSVAR in InfoSource 0TCTPRCSVAR_TEXT.
      DATA: l_str TYPE sobj_name.
      l_str = TRAN_STRUCTURE-objnm.
    * Begin Note 1134138 3/23/2008
    *  IF ( STRLEN( l_str )  > 30 ).
      IF ( STRLEN( l_str )  > 10 ).
    *  End  Note 1134138
        RESULT = TRAN_STRUCTURE-objnm+10(30).
      ELSE.
    * Multiple records with process variant type = LOADING and
    * blank process variant name caused duplicate record errors
    * during load. This code prevents the duplicate records by
    * forcing a delay and plugging a time stamp into the process
    * variant name.
        IF TRAN_STRUCTURE-TXTSH IS INITIAL.
          CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_PING_AND_WAIT'
            EXPORTING
              SECONDS      = 2.
          CONCATENATE 'DUP_RECORD_ERROR_' sy-timlo
            INTO RESULT.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
    * returncode <> 0 means skip this record
      RETURNCODE = 0.
    * abort <> 0 means skip whole data package !!!
      ABORT = 0.
    It's not very elegant, but it seems to solve the duplicate record error. Periodically, I delete the 0TCTPRCSVAR master data that contains string "DUP_RECORD_ERROR.'
    Isn't SAP grand!!
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,

  • How to = TextArea - so the text disappears?

    What are the bits I need, so that when a user fills in a form eg;
    TextArea TA1 = new TextArea("Enter your name here");
    1. So the text is hilighted in dark blue.
    2. So when the user clicks within the TextArea, the whole text vanishes.
    3. How to reconstruct the same if the form is reset (may not require additional).
    Sample code warmly welcomed

    Here is how you would do it using a JTextField. I would assume it would also work for a TextArea.
    import java.util.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import javax.swing.text.*;
    import javax.swing.plaf.basic.*;
    import javax.swing.plaf.*;
    public class TextFieldTest extends JFrame
        public TextFieldTest()
              FocusAdapter focusAdapter = new FocusAdapter()
                   public void focusGained(FocusEvent e)
                        JTextComponent component = (JTextComponent)e.getSource();
                        component.selectAll();
              JTextField textField1 = new JTextField( "one two three four five" );
              textField1.addFocusListener( focusAdapter );
              getContentPane().add( textField1, BorderLayout.NORTH );
              JTextField textField2 = new JTextField( "abcdefg" );
              textField2.setMargin( new Insets( 5, 5, 5, 5 ) );
              textField2.addFocusListener( focusAdapter );
              getContentPane().add( textField2, BorderLayout.SOUTH );
        public static void main(String[] args)
         TextFieldTest frame = new TextFieldTest();
            frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
            frame.pack();
            frame.setVisible(true);
    }Note: I would use a TextField to enter a users Name. A TextField is typically used to enter a single line of text. A TextArea is used when you need to enter multiple lines of text.

  • Transparent the background or compare 2 pdf documents

    usully, the background of any pdf software is white.
    I need transparent the backgroud of one pdf document.
    I have an orgignal pdf document, I write a copy by MS word. I would like transparentize the copy, Then I can compare between the copy and the original.
    Do you find any solution about transparent the background?  Do you know any software pdf which can be transparentized?

    A PDF page is not white - it's transparent. However in Acrobat or Adobe Reader you always see a white representation of the page, and that cannot be turned off.
    You have two options - import one PDF into another as a layer, or open both files in another application (Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.).

  • Sticky Note (Text annotation)

    Hello,
    I decided to add some sticky notes (text annotation) in my pdf document and I was surprised to see that the sticky notes were not printed. I used the "Document and Markups" option for the print and even in the print preview the Sticky Notes were not present.
    Regarding the PDF Reference a sticky note is a Markup so it has to be printed.
    Is it a bug? A normal behavior?
    While I select the "Print notes and pop-ups" option in the Preferences - Commenting then the Sticky is printed (but also all notes and pop-ups

    The Preferences > Commenting > Print notes and popups option takes priority when printing sticky notes - if it's deselected, they don't print at all. If it's selected, sticky notes will print in whatever state they're in (collapsed or open) provided they don't have a non-print attribute set against them.
    Most people don't want stickies to print, as by their nature they are either collapsed (hence meaningless on paper) or will obscure some other part of the page. Text markups, stamps etc. can be printed without such issues, hence the above preference defaults to off.

  • I am trying to use motion tracking to have text follow a section of the background.The text box follows the motion path, but the text just sits there.  What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to use motion tracking to have text follow a section of the background.The text box follows the motion path, but the text just sits there.  What am I doing wrong?

    Motion basically looks at the the source footage and it's timing (in the timing section of the Inspector) when analyzing for tracking.  Filters are basically ignored by the tracker.  Retiming actions, like time re-mapping, or retiming behaviors that are applied before the tracker should be used by the tracker.  Did you change the timing after doing the tracking?  If so this would also require you to re-track the shot.  Understanding that you found a workaround, describing the effects you applied would help to explain why you ran into problems.
    Cheers!

  • Can you choose to block phone calls but not texts from a number?

    So I have searched all over the place and have not found an answer.  I am sure someone has blocked me from calling them because when I try to call them I recieve this message: "Welcome to Verizon Wireless. The number you were trying to reach has calling restrictions which has prevented the completion of your call."However I am wondering if they can still receieve my texts.  I have sent two and they both show that they have been delivered on my phone and they both also show up on my online bill as having been sent from me and recieved to the number that I am pretty sure has blocked me.  Does Verizon allow someone to block just phone calls but not text messages?  Or if you block a number from calling does that mean texting from that same number is automatically blocked as well (or is it two seperate processes)?  I understand it may look like it has been sent on my end, but I am wondering, since I never got a "message failed" indicator or anything else telling me they never got it, if they were able to receive and read the 2 messages?  We both are Verizon customers by the way.  Thanks!!!

    That person did block you, and no they cannot receive or read your texts.
