This question may be a bit too simplistic for this community but I'm stumped. When preparing a lecture I prefer to have a black background with white text on a square slide.
I know how to create a theme to get the slide design quickly.
I know how to change font text color.
But...
1) How do I assign a theme to default (instead of having to load it manually each time)?
2) How do I change the default text color?
Ideally, I'd like to have powerpoint open with my custom theme and having white text as the default color so I don't need to change these settings manually.
much thanks!
Point Google here to get a more detailed set of instrux,

But basically you rightclick the theme you want to set as default in the Themes gallery, then choose Set as Default.
When creating your theme, add a text box, format it to the font style you want, then right click and choose Set as Default Text Box. This will set the font style for any newly added text. Also make sure that the font theme included in your theme specifies the fonts you want for title and body text. To do this, go to View | Slide Master. On the Slide Master tab, you can use the Fonts button in the Background group to choose or modify the font theme.

Like shown in the image above my secondary color for all my views is pink.
But I want it to be a different one.
Where can I set the Color globally?
For the Entries that pink color is the color accent of the application
Which can be modified of course. example
But if you want a little more customization for this view and maybe others. You will have to use custom renderers. Here is another question about that
I'm quite new to Vuetify and struggling to figure out how themes, components and text colors work together (if they do at all).
I want to work with theme color names in my templates like primary, secondary, warning, error and assign colors to those keywords by adding a new theme or overwriting the existing one.
This all works out of the box but the problem is I can't figure out how to set text colors in the same way. I want to assign a primary-text-color, secondary-text-color, etc. and have it automatically use the correct text color by default.
Text colors seem to change automatically when I change the color on buttons but nowhere else.
If I add a theme color to buttons, Vuetify automatically changes the text color to be readable, for example (just using the default theme):
<v-btn color='primary'>Test</v-btn>
Text will change to primary and the button will be perfectly usable
while a lighter color will have dark text:
<v-btn>Test</v-btn>
But other components don't behave the same. For example a v-app-bar component with default color has dark text on a light background, but a primary app bar keeps the dark text on a blue background.
It looks like I need to explicitly change the text color with a helper class or similar, and even then I'd have to use something like white--text instead of primary--text (which just applies the actual primary color to text).
I think I've read all the docs on the website but I can't find any reference to this particular problem
Sorry for the links to images, I don't have enough flair to embed them in my post.
currently, this works primary--text
<v-list-item-title v-if="company_name" class="title primary--text">
{{ company_name.company_name }}
</v-list-item-title>
I have just upgraded to CKEditor 4.4.5 from 3.5, and notice quite a few changes !! One of the changes is the new skin called Moono which looks great. However it did get me wondering whether it would be possible to change the black in the menu icons to a custom colour, for branding reasons for example. We do this in the rest of the web application using a combination of Server code and CSS.
Many thanks.
Toolbar icons in Moono are images, so if you want to change them, you'd need to create a new skin or use an alternative one from the CKEditor Addons Repository.
However, since Moono is a monochromatic skin, maybe for branding purposes it would be enough for you to use the so-called "chameleon feature" that lets you change the UI color with a simple configuration option?
If so, just use config.uiColor to provide a mataching RGB color value or an HTML color name, as in:
config.uiColor = '#AADC6E';
See a working example here: http://sdk.ckeditor.com/samples/uicolor.html
I import Spotfire graphics into Powerpoint quite frequently. Spotfire has its own specific color palette, which aren't the standard colors used in powerpoint, at least I don't think so.
I often must create my own legend or for other reasons match the spotfire color palette, and I do this by entering the RGB codes for the spotfire colors. I would like to do this one time and have the spotfire color palette always available in powerpoint without having to re-type.
I do not think I want to use a color theme, because I want my colors to stay consistent if I end up using different templates (themes). That is, I don't want to call spotfire default blue "Accent 1", because if I change background templates (themes) I think it will overwrite Accent 1 with the new template's Accent 1.
So I want a color palette that is always available to me regardless of what theme I choose.
Any thoughts?
You're dismissing themes for all the right reasons. They wouldn't work for what you're after. You'd pretty much need to buy or write an add-in to do what you want.
For example, it might install n buttons on the toolbar/ribbon, where n = the number of colors you need on your palette. When the button is clicked it sets the fill, for example, of the currently selected shape/shapes to the appropriate color.
You could have different sets of buttons for fill, outline etc, or have the code figure out whether the user has pressed, eg the CTRL key. Click = set the fill, CTRL+Click = set the outline.
Because I was curious I decided to attempt to create a simple Add-In that will allow you to select a chart, series in the chart, and then apply colors.
You can download from Google Docs (revised link)
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1v0s8ldwHRYMFFPZ29FNmI0TkE/edit?usp=sharing
The file is saved as a PPTM to expose the code modules. Save As a PPAM and load the Add-in; it will be available from the Add-Ins command bar. I have tested briefly and seems to be working.
Here's the nuts & bolts of it:
First declared several custom colors as Public Const variables. These can be modified using the long value (converted from RGB) to suit whatever you need.
The macro requires that the selection be a Shape, and further that the Shape .HasChart = True. There is some logic to trap these conditions.
A user form has a ComboBox that populates with a list of Series from the selected chart, and 8 CommandButtons colored for each of the defined colors, will send that color to the chosen series.
You could add additional CommandButtons and colors as needed, or tweak the existing code to suit your specific needs.
Although the slide templates have a default color theme attached to them, you can switch slide templates and still use any XML color scheme at your disposal.
In VS2010, I have a customized text editor color scheme that has a black background and light grey text. This is great for me working by myself on an LCD display. However, often I need to plug in to a projector to display code to a group. The black background color scheme does not work well at all on a projector, so I always want to flip back to basically the "default" color scheme.
The only way I know of to do this right now is to export the VS color settings to a backup file, then revert to defaults. When I am done with my group presentation, I can then re-import the previously exported color settings.
Does anyone know of an easier / less manual way of doing this? Like a plugin that lets you flip between text editor color schemes, or simply a macro to do the manual process above?
I found this writeup on how to make a macro and menu items to quickly export/import the fonts and colors: http://jeffhandley.com/archive/2010/03/09/225.aspx
