Cannot select the color of gray background

When I use the eyedropper tool to select the color of gray background with illustrator he defined that as the color of the shape it makes some weird greenish gray color. The box in the screenshot should be the same color as the background, but it is not.

After spending some more time troubleshooting, I found the solution. It was indeed a problem with the color on my computer management. I had, some time ago, set up a second display screen, but it turned off because need to concentrate on two monitors always has been disrupting my work flow. One was on a digital input, the second was on an analog input. Although I disabled the other monitor on my computer display settings, color management profile was still set to analog display, and so it was the analogue display on a digital input. I disconnected the second monitor completely and made sure color management profile has been set to digital. Now, all the colors are correct as well as profiles of colors on Illustrator.

Thank you all for your time and your help.

  • cannot select the color of the mark on the intensity

    Hi people,

    I want to add color to my plot intensity, but when I right click on the bar of color card, the mark color is gray. A picture is attached.  I use LV2011.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Thank you.

    -Sonny

    Hey Sonny,

    What you have to do, is actually one of the first click.  Look at the picture I have attached.  You can see that I have highlighted the value 39.4161.  Once you do this, right click on the brand and you should be good to go.

    If you want more color, you add more markers.  This can be done simply by right-clicking on the z scale everywhere where you want to add the marker, and then selecting "Add marker".

    I hope this helps!

    Original title: cannot select the drive (NAS)

    My HTPC uses a small SSD 30gig as an OS drive, with all the media stored on a 2 TB WD MyBook Live all connected via gigabit ethernet.  The NAS is mapped by Win7 Premium as Z: and is visible for Win 7 and all other programs, including iTunes and XBMC.  In Media Center settings-> TV-> check the possibility of the recorder are grayed out (+/-buttons) and the drive C: of SSD is the only option.  What can I do to get the WMC to see the SIN?  Is there another setting of mapping I should use?

    Cannot select the device scanner, AIO F380, MacBook Pro

    Thank you, Sean. I found out what I needed to know to fix the DIF from a document from hp customer service. I was able to fix by restarting, it is to unplug the usb cable first from the printer, wait 5 seconds, plug the cable back in. Then I desconnected the cable from the computer, wait 5 seconds and plugged.

    Duh!

    Thanks for responding.

  • Select the color of bitmap images or grayscale in InDesign CC 2015.4

    Hi all

    Since InDesign CS1, I'm used to be able to import levels of grayscale or bitmap graphics, and then select the color in InDesign.

    I just had to choose the "Direct Selection" tool, click on the graphic and select another color.

    Since InDesign version CC 2015.4 it no longer works.

    No workaround is it available?

    Thank you


    Robin (from Germany)

    Hi Robin,

    This is a bug with InDesign CC 2015.4.
    To set the end of August.

    So far, you could always leave the preview overlay mode on.
    So the bug is not visible.

    OK, the question is in the place where he is not pointing?

    Edit:
    Oh, it looks that it points to dba_tab_comments. Since your original post:

    desc user_tab_comments;
    ERROR:
    ORA-04043: el objeto "SYS"."DBA_TAB_COMMENTS" no existe
    

    Who do not have the right of Rodolfo.

    Thus, final to get rid of him.

    And a good thing that you do not 'go to your DBA"as suggested. It was just to choose the wrong solution to an unknown problem.

  • HP ENVY 14 LAPTOP - cannot change the color of the menu of win 7

    Right now I know it is a HP support forum but I have a HP laptop and desktop and I really hope someone here can help me really...

    Good one a few months ago I bought a HP Envy 14 laptop and I must say that I really liked it. Then a few days ago, I just bought a HP desktop computer (can tell you I'm a fan of HP) and I love it also.

    Here's my problem...

    On my desk, I decided to change her look, so I installed a custom theme (dark theme) and it changes the appearance of windows 7 and changed the color of the lower menu/taskbar of windows 7 in black and I really liked it. I decided to install this theme on my laptop and everything has changed except for the background color of menu/taskbar of windows 7 botom. For some reason any will not change the color of the menu bit matter what I do.

    I tried to go to:

    Panel-> personalization-> change the color of window glass

    and by selecting a different color but not matter what color I select windows 7 background menu/taskbar does not change it remains just the grayish color of say her since I got the laptop.

    Now, why this work on my desktop but not on my laptop?

    There must be a setting on windows 7 that prevents me to change the color of the lower menu/taskbar. Still worse firefox is horrible. I can not change the appearance of firefox, whenever I have try and install a new firefox theme does not change. On my desk, I installed a dark theme for firefox 11 (the Nasa Night Launch) theme and it worked very well but for some reason any on my laptop, nothing seems to work just...

    I really hope that someon can help me with this because it makes me crazy...

    I want to thank you all for your time and help,

    DragonFur, I want to thank you for your time and your answers, you should know that it meant a lot to me.

    After doing a lot of work and trial and error, I finally found a solution to this problem...

    I did a lot of googling and research and what I found is that there are many people out there who are owners of laptop HP Envy 14 who have trouble changing the color of their windows 7 start menu/taskbar or with the taskbar is not not transparent.

    Here are some of the things I tried.

    1 Installing different themse (did not work)

    2. Update driver for ati radeon 5650 graphics card (did not work)

    3 tried to adjust areo ensuring transparency has been activated (did not work)

    4. tried to bios update (did not work)

    5 tried to use a program to change the color of the bar tasks (did not work)

    What I ended up doing is creating a new user to the administrator and when I created this account is a program called "stardock mypaint" come asking me if I wanted to use this program to change the original theme for windows. When I said this software to change the original theme of windows 7, it changed my taskbar to the greyish appearance, it was the same off-white color I had on my account I tried to change. So I went back to my account and I searched for the program "stardock mypaint" and I have disabled this theme and then he changed my windows operating system 7 to an original blue theme but the taskbar was transparent! Then I went into my themes and changed the theme I wanted and my taskbar has changed color and transparency! Needless to say I was so happy.

    I really hope that this post will really help someone else who is trying to solve this problem...

    HP I really hope that maybe you guys can watch this program "Stardock MyPaint" which I think may be for HP Envy 14 laptop computers and allow users to know that the use of this program can affect other issues.

    Isn't funny how the solution to the problem is always the simplest answer...

    I knew there was something in the windows that kept my taskbar to be transparent and changing colors and it turns out it was a program of HP.

    Yet once I really hope this helps someone else out there and I'm hoping that HP employees this will read so maybe they can help each other if someone falls on this problem.

    DragonFur, thanks again for your help...

  • Cannot change the color of text-related

    PC, windows 7, InDesign CS5

    Hello

    Sorry if this has developed before, but I couldn't find in searches.

    I have a few blocks of text with linked text and I want to use the selection tool to select all images and change the color of the text, but the options to choose the 't' in the color and swatches palettes are grayed out and won't let me select them.

    I can click within one of the frames and to select all of the text and change the color in this way, but I have a lot of columns in text boxes with several different sets of links that is, I have to go into each separate set of related images and change the font color for each game that will take a long time.

    Is it possible to select all images on my page, no matter what they are double and change the color of the text in?

    Thanks in advance

    Jongware said, you can use find/replace to some pretty powerful things. Perhaps if you gave us a more clear example of what you have and what you want, we can offer some advice on its use. Do you want to apply the same style to everything in the thread? It would be very easy (and it's probably already done - most docs start out by evrythig [standard paragraph] style.)
