Black text on black background
Hi, I have a black background and I want to put some text there that one can hardly see.. sort of raised and embossed. I guess the overall effect would be like as if it was pressed into the black but it must be hardly seen. Any ideas?

In Finder, when you select a photo to use as a background (just for that window) but you can't read the black text (filename) against a black background
Is there anyway that I can make folder icons etc. a bit translucent? Also, it would be good if I it could automatically detect if the text is against a similar colour background and adjust the colour accordingly. tia In article <0001HW.C56A4F9C0043EA2CB019F96F@news.motzarella.org>, Harry Solomon <harrysolomon@ymail.com> wrote: > Is there anyway that I can make folder icons etc. a bit translucent? On the former, there is a way, but it is tedious. You can copy a desktop icon, and immediately paste it back down, then use an icon editor (I use iconographerX), open the i...

Man Pages with Black-on-Black Text
I installed RH8, my first try at Linux, about 2 months ago. My man pages had been working normally, but yesterday I noticed that certain parts of the pages were showing up blank -- the command-line options in the Synopsis section and some keywords, for instance. As an example, an exerpt of my "man man" looks like: SYNOPSIS man [-acdfFhkKtwW] [--path] [-m ] [-p ] [-C _ ] [-M ] [-P ] [-S _ ] [ ] DESCRIPTION man formats and displays the on-line manual pages. If you specify , man only looks in that sectio...

White text on black background Autocad 2004
I am trying to prepare a drawing to be printed on acetate so that It can be used for etching some metal name plates. What I want to do,is draw white letters on a black background. I have drawn a rectangle and inserted a true type font with textfill switched off. I then use a solid hatch to fill the rectangle up to the text with black. The problem I am having, is that there is a white box around the text. I require the text to be white and the background to be black. How can I get rid of the white text box. Use Color 255 for your text, and place it over a solid black rectangle. ___ "John" <john@sturton.freeserve.co.uk> wrote in message news:d0911d7f.0409161028.34e529be@posting.google.com... > I am trying to prepare a drawing to be printed on acetate so that It > can be used for etching some metal name plates.

text + text
What is "text + text" supposed to do right now? It doesn't seem very useful to me. What about making "text + text" as an equivalent for "text || text"? Most strongly-typed programming languages do this.

print( '-deps2', tmpfile) turns white text to black
Hi All, I'm pulling my hair over this. I'm printing to file a bunch of plots, with a little text that is added in white font, using: text(-4,4,['t = ',num2str( t (k) )], 'FontSize',14, 'FontName','Times New Roman', 'Color', 'w') In the Figure window, it looks fine, the text is white. But when I save the file, it is turned into black. This is the end result: http://www.maths.bris.ac.uk/~aelab/LABarba_files/images/5-18logvort800.eps ....where you can see why I want the text white!

How to "draw" (print) "graphics" on black text screen (console)
I would like to "draw" polygons on console (black) screen in "text mode". That is, to draw '**'s instead of lines. Purpose is to let students activate polygon methods and see it on screen, even before they learn AWT and graphics. I wonder if there are freeware classes doing this. If not, how do I do gotoXY() in black console screen. That is, how do I control the cursor position ?. Also, is there a clearScreen () method ? How do I find the actual dimentions (in characters) of the screen ? (not necessarily 25X80). Or, how do I maximize it ? Thanks, Memi (highs...

Should black and white pictures be black and white?
Now, here's a daft sounding question. :o) I've got an old photo from the 50's that I need to restore. It's a bit faded and has several orange-ish blotches, but this is basically a dust and scratches job. The thing is, the photo has a slight discolouration. My instinctive reaction was, well, this was taken as a black and white shot, so any colour in there must be discolouration. But moving the saturation slider right down to zero makes the photo look a bit flat. There's something not right, but I can't quite put my finger on what it is. So, my first question is,...

Highlighting found words or portions of text in a text field
On a given record of an FMP6 base with a text field, is there a way to highlight all the occurrences of the search word or words. Say, like in the FMP Help. I seem to recall there was a plugin or a technique to do that, but which and where ? Thanks. Remi-Noel Remi-Noel I did once implement the technique, but can't remember all details. I do remember it was a b*tch to work with. It involved a field for each color you need. and a couple of intermediate fields. All these fields have to be on a layout, all the color attributes have to set AND there has to be always some text insid...

Text filtering in a text field
Hi, am new to SKILL and would like to do some text checking and filtering for illegal characters in the text field.

Text disappearing from text fields...
Hello, I'm currently working with a MySQL backend and is trying to use FileMaker 9's Web Form capabilities as a front end. From FileMaker Pro's interface, I have used the ODBC to connect my FileMaker database to my MySQL tables. The schema and existing data records loads into FileMaker without a problem. However, when I'm trying to insert text (VARCHAR and TEXT) data from FileMaker, it blanks out and ends up only inserting a blank into MySQL. Default values set on the MySQL side only take effect if I left that field blank on FileMaker when I create a new record. Default field...
