• Why Windows high contrast doesn't work anymore since Firefox 29 and the theme of the Australia?

  In firefox, 28 and all versions before that when I had Windows High Contrast active firefox would also be in high contrast. This would make black Web pages and all the text would become white. Because of my disability which makes it much easier for me to see and walk through it. Since firefox 29 and the introduction of the Australia theme but it seems like a high contrast in windows is no longer supported by firefox. That's why I went down to firefox 28 in order to be able to navigate as I used to.

  There is a hidden value that needs to be modified in two places:

  Go to Options > content > fonts look and colours, click on 'Advanced' > uncheck allow sites to choose the fonts and colors
  AND
  Click on ok and the color... on the content page > uncheck the allow pages choose own colors other than above. Make sure that the background is black and white choice policies.

  Under windows if you have high contrast mode, please also try "use system colors".

• The syntax coloring does not work on Windows high contrast Theme

  -On Windows 10, if I use the default theme, coloring syntax works fine.

  -If I switch to my custom high-contrast dark theme Windows (black window background, white text), the text in Code view or the Code Inspector is a single color (white on black), and "Color Syntaxing" option is grayed out. So, it seems that Windows themes replace Dreamweaver.

  -If I switch to the default theme Windows 10, then turn on syntax coloring, then switch back to my high contrast theme, a few syntax colors stay, as tags HTML object, but most of the text turns white.

  - So I think that it is a bug fix / feature request: Please make Dreamweaver code replace Windows themes like the other apps do (Notepad ++ for example).

  My specs:

  Dreamweaver 2015.1 release, Build 7851

  10, 64-bit Windows Home

  In fact, not really a bug, but more than one function of wondering who I'll introduce.  Is not sound as there is no current workaround solution other that temporarily switching Windows to a theme non-haut contrast.

  I look forward to the update Dreamweaver CC 2016 which I've heard will bring a dark theme in the user interface.  Now, it would be just great if Windows 10 allowed customization of it of regular hardware accelerated theme and not relying on high contrast mode, which should legitimately outweigh everything else since this is a feature of "accessibility".

  With game of high contrast mode, you do not receive some different fur, but in general, the change is subtle, change background images for real images to ensure compatibility with the contrast settings high OS. There are a few items that have a difference in high contrast mode, like af:dialog, so you could test with this feature to ensure that you really are in high contrast mode.

• Images with high contrast remains on the screen S7-391

  Greetings,

  I just with high contrast images that are displayed for a long time on the stay of the screen visible to screen for minutes even after the changes to the image, it is as if the image were burning the screen, but they disappear after a few minutes.

  I posted two images showing the problem on my skydrive:

  Figure 1: View of the Normal Office

  Image 2: The virtual keyboard open showing the image on the screen problem, that it is as if the keyboard was translucent, but is not

  This happens along the border of the screen with high contrast images, I have not tested if this happens in the middle of the screen, I will soon.

  Is this normal? Am I the only one having this problem? I use an Aspire S7-391

  It is normal for this model. It is called retention of screen but it is not permanent and will never be. It is a technique to enhance the capacity of the contrast of the Panel... a form of excessive training if you like. Personally, I'm not a fan of that and I did not for a few years as contrast improved in native mode on the LCD panels that it should not be necessary. Anyway, the important thing to say is that yours is not defective... its part of the design of this model.

  Hello

  • What happens when you try to access the options of thoes?
  • You receive an error message?
  • What were the changes made before the problem occurred?

  I recommend you perform the clean boot and check if you are able to disable high contrast theme.

  Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

  See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

• High contrast stuck in change accessibility settings

  I turned on a high contrast in changing the setting / easy access.  He is stuck in a high contrast and will not die.  Any Suggestions?

  Thank you

  After much trial and error, worked the following text:

  1. click on "Appearance and personalization" in the Panel.

  2. click on "personalization."

  3. apply the themes and backgrounds to something other than Hi contrast;  High contrast in changing accessibility settings is now in the off position.  I think that there is a problem with windows, which should be addressed in an update.

  Thank you
