Colors of the active & inactive title bar changing by themselves?

Hi all

At my work we use Windows 7 Professional but work from servers. I think our facility's Workspace Manager.

In any case, we have no right to customize anything so we all have the same exact configuration. It's all together by the IT Department.

Recently, I got a new machine, and since then, my active and inactive title bars went weird. Don't really care about the color they are however so dark that you can't read the text.

The problem is that is not evident in all areas of windows. Only in 2 programs that I use and it is not the title bars that are the problem, it is the selected lines and not selected. Our IT Department is unable to understand it. It is not the programs because they do not have the ability to customize.

So, every morning I have to go to Customize > window color > Advanced appearance settings and change the colors of the Active & inactive title bar that fixes it.  (HE allowed me to access it!) But when I log in the next day she goes back to the stupid colors. It's driving me crazy.

It's not even the default color of windows. Also if I connect to another computer it is not affected.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Please, I beg you!

    You can do that on Windows XP. Your second screenshot comes from Vista and there you can have it like that. In XP you will always have the title bar as shown in your first screenshot.

  • How to change the overall color of the active style for button

    I am creating web buttons.  I'm pretty new to this.  I created a button that has two layers (text and background).  For the background layer, I have selected this layer and then click one of the styles in the active panel.  These styles have a certain set of effects.  When you click on a style, it is implemented in the color that is indicated on the style.  Is there a change in the way in which the color of this style and its effects?  For example, if you click the style "chrome misc 004", how the color is changed to something else like green but still maintain the effects?

    Select your button, then watch the properties (lower-left) area.

    You will see that some filters have been applied to the button.

    Scroll the filter Panel, and then select the Hue/Saturation.  Click on the little "i" icon and have a play around with it and you get the look you are after.

    Setting filters will also change the appearance of the button - just play with them and see how you will :-)

  • Asterisk arbitrarily in title bar changes

    I've always relied on the symbol of asterisk on the title bar of a file to alert me of a colorspace by default. In previous versions of the PS, this meant that the file was not in the current default color space, and it's something I paid attention when 40 students different subject files for evaluation.

    Here's the situation...

    In PS CS4 I AdobeRGB set as my default RGB color space. I can open a file that contains the tag this color space, and the title bar has no asterisk - as expected.

    However, when I select file > print and simply click done or print, the title bar of the file suddenly pushes an asterisk. The file is STILL in the Adobe RGB space as seen under Edition > convert to profile, but still has the asterisk display.

    I've done other things if you change a photo and suddenly get the asterisk as well. A quick search here brought to the top of any other question about this.

    Any ideas why this happens?

    System: newish 24 "iMac, OSX 10.5.7 8 GB of ram, Virgin installation of CS4 suite with all available patches currently applied.

    The asterisk outside jurisdiction parens means you have changed the file (unsaved changes took place - in this case, print settings). The asterisk inside the parens jurisdiction means that the image is not in your workspace. I am completely at a loss as to why someone would choose such a confusing symbol for this feature.

  • Possible to remove the top card, title bar and navigation?

    Hi, with is the new beta version of DPS possible to open the article without going through a card/article summary page to interact with?

    In the previous version of the DPS, you could specify some of these options.

    Ideally, I would like to remove:

    • The title bar
    • Interaction with the card - directly in the full experience
    • And remove the net asset value of high level 'Done' feature


    Miss me just something hope.


    Thanks for any help!

    Hello

    Instead of jumping into the list of cards for a collection (the so-called Page Browse), there is a setting on the collection of jump in the first article. Essentially, this allows to bypass the page browse and opens the first item in the collection.

    For now, there is not a way to disable the application user interface.

  • Muse is not let me change the color of the text in different States - "changes to text can be edited or formatted by the State [...]"

    When I watch tutorials on the buttons of the State etc.. I see that Muse allows you to select different States, then highlight the text and change the color to set the color of the text in this State.

    But whenever I select the State I want to change, and then select my text and change its color, it changes the color of all States as a default color to be applied only for a State.

    I get the message "text ranges cannot be edited or formatted by the State. Change to this mode effect all States. "in the window of the States while text is highlighted.

    But people seem to be able to do it just like that. Any help is very appreciated.

    Hello

    States are associated with blocks of text rather than the text itself. Please make sure that the entire text block is selected instead of text to apply changes on different States.

    Please see the attachment.

    Kind regards

  • Installed new HARD drive with the new installation of XP, old HDD ShowAs saw as the active partition, how to change this?

    I installed a new HARD drive with a new installation of Windows XP Edition family. I want to keep the old HDD and reformat the drive, but I can't because the second HDD is listed as active in the management of the computer. Why? It's not the drive that contains the operating system (Windows XP) that is initialized from.  I put the BIOS such that the new HARD drive is the boot drive. The old HDD has Windows XP on it, but isn't the startup disk. I just don't understand.
    If only the new HARD drive is installed, the computer management doesn't show that it or any other of its partitions are the active partition (C drive is listed as the system partition, of course).

    How can I get an active partition and no active partition when the new HARD drive is installed on a HARD drive that is not the boot drive, when I have two hard drives installed?

    In case it is necessary, the new HARD drive is a SATA and the old HARD drive is IDE with the cavaliers as a slave.

    The system partition is the Active partition. The system volume contains the system files needed to start Windows, Windows XP, these system files are:

    NTLDR
    Boot.ini
    NTDETECT.COM
    Ntbootdd.sys (present/used only with older SCSI controllers)

    Windows files are not necessarily on the system volume, they can reside on another volume, when on a different volume this volume holding Windows files is called the boot volume.

    When you install Windows on a computer, playing a mixture of IDE and SATA setup discs tends to favor with IDE drives on SATA drives and tends to use the IDE drive to house the system partition, (even if Windows is installed on a different drive).

    Running the command SYSTEM SET at a command prompt may shed some light on the problem...
