How to change the background color of the window?

I would like to change the background color for all applications to pale gray,

such as Notepad and IE.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to do it?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions

Right-click on a zone empty of your desktop and choose personalize. When customization of the control panel applet opens, choose the color of the window (on the axis, below the pane). When the pane of the window color and appearance opens, click Advanced appearance settings (lower left corner of the pane).

Now... with the Windows color and appearance of dialog box open, click on the white space of the Window Active (do not click the text in the window) or choose the command window of the point: in the drop-down list. Choose a color for 1 color:, e.g. Gray. Click apply at the bottom right and wait Windows 7 resets the graphic properties.

If you now open Notepad, you'll have a gray window active. My IE follows suit, but only on a white page. Web designers in general choose the background image or color they want to view, and you will have to go into the options of the browser to replace those.

    Hi Brian,.

    1. are you able to install all device drivers?
    2. which antivirus program is installed on your computer?
    3. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?

    The question seems to be as a program is blocked.
    I suggest you perform the clean boot and check if the problem persists. Clean boot helps eliminate conflicts of software that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program in Windows. You can also troubleshoot or determine what conflict is causing the problem by performing a clean boot.

  • How to change the window font sizes help LabVIEW?

    I read the help documents LabVIEW quite often, and the default fonts are too small, making it very difficult to read for long period of time. I couldn't find anything when I change the font size.

    Please let me know.

    Thank you.

    Help is HTML and at least, in Windows, it seems that IE is used to display. Most web pages have a defined font size to control the appearance of the page, but you can ignore it by going to Internet Options (accessible from both help screen) > accessibility (which is a button hidden in the bottom of the page). I see no using LabVIEW to actually specifying the size, but at least for me it made bigger. Note that this affects any web page that view you in Internet Explorer.

  • How to change the windows identity display 7

    I have my LCD monitor and a TV high definition

    I use a radeon 5770 card with HDMI I attach my TV with

    but Win 7 it assigns an identity display #1 not #2 when I plug

    and Yes, all the morbid, I am well aware of how to do that show my offices primary and extended, etc.

    and Yes, I know that I can use the catalyst to swap identities

    BUT here's the problem even with catalyst swapping identities, it is not really sharing in windows

    who, with the TV physically as display identity #1, when I run programs on the HDTV (Media Center, it's to say or XBMC) he loses focus, which means that I have to run to the computer and click on the toolbar put up on the HDTV screen.

    and it is always with the top selected in WMC and other software

    This is also a problem when some computer running games which some insist on having your main screen as the identity #1

    I know that many, many others reported that over the past years,

    so my QUESTION is

    a resolution of this problem has been addressed and is there a solution?

    I installed SP1 of Win7 hoping that the resolve, but in vain.

    I became almost totally disgusted with Windows 7 Media Center and office packages

    respectfully :(

    Hello

    Windows will assign as reports of material, this is normal. To post your comments for see us on this question link below.

    I think you should probably use an extension or theme to replace the default colors.

    If you are not interested in all the changes that might come with a new theme, is the next extension compatible with Linux?
