Urxvt in the background is not transparent

Hello everyone,
I'm using Openbox and urxvt terminal and I was experimenting with running one urxvt pseudo-transparent in the background like in http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ope … background. So I created new name "RootURxvt" in my .Xdefaults file:
RootURxvt.scrollBar: false
RootURxvt.transparent: true
RootURxvt.geometry: 80x24
the rest of my .Xdefaults reagarding urxvt:
URxvt.buffered: true
URxvt.geometry: 85x24
URxvt.transparent: false
URxvt.background: black
URxvt.foreground: gray90
URxvt.cursorColor: green
URxvt.underlineColor: yellow
URxvt.scrollstyle: plain
URxvt.secondaryScroll: true
URxvt.font: -*-fixed-medium-*-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-2
URxvt.boldFont: -*-fixed-bold-*-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-2
URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,tabbed
Then I put the appropriate entry to the .config/openbox/rc.xml
<application name="RootURxvt">
<decor>no</decor>
<focus>yes</focus>
<position>
<x>0</x>
<y>0</y>
</position>
<desktop>all</desktop>
<maximized>false</maximized>
<skip_taskbar>true</skip_taskbar>
<layer>below</layer>
</application>
This is the rest of my rc.xml

Finally I added this to the .config/openbox/autostart.sh:
urxvt -name RootURxvt &
and hoped that on restart I will have nice pseudo-transparent urxvt on the background...It worked for a while but after another fiddling with rc.xml and .Xdefaults and restarting X it simply stopped working and the "RootURxvt" simply looks like normal urxvt without decor. I browsed the forums, tried "xrdb -merge" and restaring X and looked on the .Xdefaults and rc.xml files million times but I can't find what's wrong.
I could appreciate any help, I'm new to all this X resource stuff, maybe I just made some braindead mistake
Thanks in advance!

Well, I didn't consider it, because I thought that for my application (borderless urxvt terminal embedded in background below all other app windows) the pseudo-transparency aka. "Inherit Pixmap" function implemented in urxvt (I hope I got that right ) could be sufficient.
I also thought that creating a new name "RootURxvt" in the class "URxvt" in the .Xdefaults file would allow me to have two types of urxvt terms running (terminal in the root window and normal "opaque" windowed terminals).
the similar thing is in the post #12 of this thread http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=45382 but only with geometry settings.

Why when I fill my background with white the background comes up transparent?

Can someone tell me why when I fill my background with white the background comes up transparent. How do I get it back to filling in white.

Hi SSJoyce,
What version of photoshop and operating system are you using?
Is the background a locked background layer or a regular layer?
How are you filling the background with white, such as using a keyboard shortcut of Edit>Fill?
A screenshot might provide more clues as to where the trouble is.

How to change the background of a transparent

Hi there,
I have a logo which ia transparent (psd file) that has some black color and I want to place it in a poster which has also black background color. So, I need to change the background color of this logo. I appreciate it if I can get some help. Thanks.

Is the black of the logo backgroud color on it's own layer? If so, you can lock the transparency of that layer and just fill it with a new color. Or you could clip a solid color layer to that layer which will allow you to edit it when ever you want to.
If it's not on it's own layer, you can use color range to select the black and use that to make a selection to fill a new layer with a color that would hide the black. Lots of ways to do this.

Invisible video download in the background will not cancel or go away even after closing, shutting down, uninstalling/re-installing?

I tried downloading a video the other night but it never showed up in my downloads window/tab. I wanted to cancel it but could not because its not there to cancel but I do see the progress in the icon background in my windows task bar. To cancel I figured I would just close Firefox and re-open but it restarted the download again when I loaded Firefox back up. I restarted my computer and still, there it was restarting the download in the background. I uninstalled/reinstalled Firefox and yet it was still there when I loaded the browser up again. It is clearly trying to download in the background but have found o way of getting to it to cancel it. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Mozilla Firefox has the option to resume downloads if the program is
shut down while one is in progress. Did you try '''<Control> J''' ?
Go to the '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Mozilla Add-ons Web Page]''' {web link}
(There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for download managers,
and download.status.

Why is the background color not applied in one case?

Hi,
I'm using RH 7 and WebHelp.
I apply a TableHeading style to the first row of my tables. The TableHeading style is supposed to fill the cells of the first row with a background color of blue, and the text is in white. It works fine except for one table. I think TableHeading style was not applied in the Word document when I imported this topic. I tried to apply the TableHeading style to the first row, and it says it is applied in the HTML. But, the background blue does not fill the cells.
Here is what I am trying to achieve:
Here is my problem table:
I can see in the HTML that the background color is not present in the code. Here is the code for the example that is correct:
Chapter</td>
<td style="border-left: none; border-right: solid #000000 1.0px; border-top: solid #000000 1.0px; border-bottom: solid #000000 1.0px;
 width: 279.4pt; padding: 0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; background-color: #003399;"
bgcolor=#003399 width=279.4pt>
Description</td></tr>
<tr><td style="x-cell-content-align: top; border-left: solid #000000 1.0px; border-right: solid #000000 1.0px; border-top: none;
 border-bottom: solid #000000 1.0px; width: 182.85pt; padding: 0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;
 padding-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px;
 padding-bottom: 0px;" valign=top width=182.9pt>
Here is the code for my problem table:
Activity</td>
<td style="border-left: none; border-right: solid #000000 1.0px; border-top: solid #000000 1.0px; border-bottom: solid #000000 1.0px;
 width: 168.0pt; padding: 0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;" width=168pt>
Keyboard Shortcut</td></tr>
<tr style="x-cell-content-align: center;" valign=middle>
<td style="width: 374px; x-cell-content-align: top; border-left: solid #000000 1.0px; border-right: solid #000000 1.0px;
 border-top: none; border-bottom: solid #000000 1.0px; padding: 0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;
 padding-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px;
 padding-bottom: 0px;" valign=top width=374px>
Here is the code from the CSS:
p.TableHeading {
background-color: #003399;
punctuation-wrap: simple;
text-autospace: none;
font-size: 10.0pt;
font-weight: bold;
color: #ffffff;
font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
margin-left: 3pt;
margin-right: 3.0pt;
line-height: 120%;
margin-top: 0pt;
margin-bottom: 0pt;
LI.p-TableHeading {
punctuation-wrap: simple;
text-autospace: none;
font-size: 10.0pt;
font-weight: bold;
color: #ffffff;
font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
line-height: 120%;
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Julie
I don't understand why the TableHeading style is not applying the background color for the one table. I'm guessing I could just add it to the code using the HTML editor. However, I wasn't sure if that was the best way to fix this problem or if I would create another problem.

Hi Willam,
Thanks for your answer, and I will go ahead and add the background color to the problem table.
However, I am still puzzled as to why the background color is applied to the cells in the other tables and not the problem table. I'm not sure what I did to cause the problem - how I applied the TableHeading to the table cell in one case and not the other. Any ideas how I can avoid this problem?
I will not use the Word documents going forward and will only make changes with the RH editor.
Thanks again,
Julie

How do you change the background color not of the video clip, but the background the clip is on?

How do you change the background color upon which the clip resides...
I don't want to change anything within the clip itself, but the matte(?)
from black to white or cream.
I am working with Elements 10...

Create a color matte of the desired color and place it on video track 1. Then place your video on track 2.
from here: Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Creating specialty clips
Create a colored matte for a background
You can create a clip consisting of a full‑frame matte of solid color, which you can use as a solid background for titles or animated clips.
Brightly colored mattes can serve as temporary backgrounds to help you see transparency more clearly while you adjust a key effect.
Click Project Assets.
In the Project Assets panel, click New Item from the panel options and choose Color Matte.
Choose a color in the Adobe Color Picker dialog box, and click OK.
A color matte clip is placed into both the Project Assets panel and the Expert view timeline.

When I create a video, the music in the background does not come through

When I am creating a video of my kids dancing to music on my phone and I upload it to Facebook or email it, the music is barely there, so low you cannot even tell what it is, and the rest is the right sound level. What is going on?? Never had this problem before???

I am playing a concert on the TV and they are watching and dancing to it. When I play it on my phone, I can hear the music clear as day and loud. But when I upload it to Facebook it is barely there. I also tried emailing it to myself and watching it. Again, barely even there. However, there are other sounds in the background that are very loud, like a child banging blocks to the beat like a drummer. I cannot figure out what is going on.
So, to simply answer your question, it is in the background, not added seperately. =)

Mac desktop setting for the background do not list aperture 3 folder

With aperture 2 you could choose any of the folder contained in the aperture lib for display on the desktop-background. This seemed to have stopped after upgrading to Aperture 3. On the settings for the desktop "Aperture" is still listed inside the apple folder, but has no sub-folder. I guess the library could not be opened in a way...
In the Folder section I found one folder named "DSKApertureR..." but this is not opertating either.
Will there be an fix for this?
In the Picture folder I do have two Aperture library. Mine and the one with the samples. Will this cause the problem?

After starting Aperture and closing it the database seems now to be ok, as all the Aperture projects show for the desktop in the respective desktop settings. Strange. If you encounter the missing projects consider to repair the database (by holding down alt + cmd on startup) or simply start and shutdown Aperture.
A bit strange but might help someone out there.

I use high contrast mode (am visually impaired); just upgraded to 8.0. When I open a new tab, the background does not high contrast, showing white until the page loads. Is there a setting that can be adjusted to fix this, or is this permanent?

I use Windows Vista, and I use the default Alt+Shift+PrtScn high contrast mode for white text on a black background. I only notice when I click a link that opens a new tab or open a tab via the mouse wheel that becomes the main tab. I can't switch tabs fast enough if I click a link that doesn't open as the main tab to tell if the problem persists. The duration of the non-high contrast background is only as long as the page takes to load. There does not seem to be much lag, but the lack of high contrast is painful enough that I have to close my eyes, so I'm not sure. On a related note, the new status information does not high contrast either, making it impossible for me to read.

Transparent background, but not transparent on print.

I have a Photoshop file with a transparent background and when I place it on the Illustrator against a colored background, it's still transparent on the screen, but when I print it, the transparent part comes out slightly white. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Slide yourRaster/Vector balance slider to raster, then Illustrator will raster all the colors, therefore areas with and without transparency transparency will have the same color.
Print>>Advanced>>Custom button>>Slide to raster>>(optional: change dpi to 600 if you want better qulaity but may print slower)

UAC runs in the background, does not black out screen and prompt user

This is my layout:
I have a script in the start-up folder that calls a .exe upon first login after the system comes out of sysprep. In one account (Account A), when that .exe is called, the screen darkness and admin approval is asked for. If I
choose to do my first time login on the other account (Account B) the exe will get called, but I will just get a flashing shield on the task bar which i have to click to get the black out and the prompt for admin approval.
Why is that happening? I want the automatic blackout and prompt on
Account B also. Can anybody suggest some security settings i can check?
UAC is all the way up on both accounts, FYI.
Thanks

Hello, and thank you for replying.
I have restored it, but i backed it up before I did, once i restored it, I restored it from the back up, that i had done previously. I do not have warrenty under this iPhone which is quite fustrating.
Sadly this did not solve my problem; the proximity sensor still does not respond to my face during calls.
I think my only option (last choice) is to restore it completely and start afresh, which is annoying since i'll lose all my game data from Jetpack Joyride .
Thank you for your response though, it was certainly helpful.

Clicking on an application window in the background does not bring to front

I keep several applications open at the same time and organize them with Spaces. Some applications share all Spaces like Mail, Safari, Messenger.
The problem is when I have mail as the front application and then click on Safari's window, Safari doesn't come to the front. Mail still is in front.
This happens alot and with several applications.
In order to bring the app to front - I need to click on the apps icon in the dock.
Is there a patch or fix for Leopard.

Even worse, clicking on the icon in the dock isn't always helpful. Sometimes there is no way of bringing the document in front. I have to force quit the program, very annoying.
The strange thing is, I can still open documents. I see them appear when I right-click on the icon in the dock. So the program isn't realy stuck. The mac is just unable to bring it to front.
This happens a lot with InDesign and a co-worker of mine had the same problem in Exell.

How do you make the background of an object transparent in Adobe Illustrator?

Hello Forum.
How do you make the background of an object transparent in Adobe Illustrator?
I have been having issues with using the Magic Wand tool in Adobe Illustrator as well as the lasso tool.
Basically, I am trying to put a small graphic into a new Illustrator file.
The first thing I tried to do is to use the magic wand tool. But I found out that this did not work on a jpeg image since it did not have any individual objects to select.
So I tried something new. I opened the file in Adobe Photoshop and used the lasso tool to select an area. Then I coped this area. Then I tried to paste it into Adobe Illustrator. But the background was not transparent for the pasted image.
How do I make the background transparent.
I made this small video to show what I am talking about:

Don't Copy/Paste the image.
Make it transparent in Photoshop, save a PSD and place it in Illustrator

Urxvt in the background is not transparent
