Can I change the application title bar color?

With a number of open applications and windows a standard color grey silver it can be quite difficult to quickly locate a title bar to move a window.  I don't see any option in system preferences to change the color of title bar.  Can it be done?

OS X does not have this facility.

You may be able to find a third party extension that can do the job, but my advice would be NOT to install this software.

  • Cannot change the active title bar

    Hey people.

    I use a HP Envy (Windows 7, etc.), a year or so old, but I just did a reset complete system - a few days ago. It is therefore running (approximately) on the parameters of the box.

    However, I have problems by changing the settings of the active title bar for programs that do not have their own settings of active title bar (think Windows Explorer vs Google Chrome). This has caused some problems, especially for things like Mathematica, where the menu under the title bar is screwed up. More important still, it seems just ugly.

    Unfortunately, go into the settings of customization (including advanced settings) in Control Panel does not work. In fact, the parameters are essentially the value by default and cannot not even match at the exit. It is quite confusing.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if I can provide more information on the parameters, specifications, etc.

    Not a matter of doing for me, but it would be nice to know if users must not leave my application to see this information.

    I've seen several posts on this topic but nothing marked as resolved.  I even did a text search on "Battery" on all my documents and I can't find anything.

    I guess the battery and signal meter gauge are monitored on the theme.  How can we add them to our application title bar?

  • Can I change the shape of a color ramp (I do not want a square but a heart)

    Hello!

    I want to know if we can change a color ramp, because mine is a square and I want to have a heart.

    If not, perhaps can I load a picture (of a heart) and change its color depending on the input data?

    Thank you!

    want you a heart? (I hope that's correct )

    In the attachment is what you want.

    How I did it:

    -in Photoshop (you can use something else), I created an image, crop the middle like a heart, create a new layer and save it in GIF format. It is very important to save it in gif format because it allows transparent areas of the image. Save as bmp will fill in the middle with white.

    -Open your cover and (using the mouse) drag-and-drop the gif file created.

    -Add the 'color strip' (make sure its size to mount to the heart), bring back the front image and send "color ramp" (there are a few buttons that allow you to set the order of the controls and indicators - front or back on the toolbar)

    You now have your heart.

  • Changing the setting display 256 colors

    To: Eric

    How can I change the display of 256 colors in MS Vista settings? The only give options according to the display settings are 16-bit and 32-bit.

    I am trying to install a game for my daughter.

    Thank you

    From: Andy [YaYa]

    Maybe this post in microsoft.public.windows.vista.games too, but the game you are trying to install?

    Vista disables the default 256 color mode, but if you right-click on the Setup file, select Properties, then the Compatibility tab there should be an option to run 256 color mode, but I don't know of many games where the configuration of your system in mode 256 colors will set the installation program.

    Good luck

  • How can I change the color of the title bars in Outlook and word?

    In customization after choosing a theme, it gives you the option of the window color and appearance.
    It is said that colors and sizes selected here apply only if you use the Windows 7 basic theme or the theme of access facility.
    However when I change the colors, it does not apply to the suite office (outlook, word, powerpoint, etc...)
    If I use a high contrast theme, it changes the title bar, title bar active...
    If I use windows 7 Basic is not?
    Is there one way other than the themes of high contrast, choose your colors for the task/title bars on of office?

    Hello Robyn B,.

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

    Some of the available color & size options are not available because Windows 7 Basic is a theme and will replace some of the items you choose. If you choose Windows Classic, it should allow you to change these colors and sizes in the window color and appearance UI.

    Hope this helps Chris.H

    Hi, Judy,.

    You can change the text size

    Control Panel > type the color scheme

    Select Customize

    Select display (left index finger)

    Under change only the size of text, select icon

    You can also check the option for "BOLD"

    Do not forget to click on apply when finished

    Because desktop wallpaper images have different colors, it is easy for the colors of unreadable fonts if they are on top of the same color in a background image to display. For example, a black font on top a dark part of the background image or a white font on a white part of a background image.

    The desktop icon fonts are dynamic and show white on dark background and change in white with a shadow effect black on a light background.
