I'm using putty (terminal emulator, serial console). Every time I use it I need to change the font size and background color in setting. Is there any script that I can run so that all settings will be changed automatically? Is it possible for me to change them through scripts?
If it is on Windows then
Start it from a shortcut
While the window is still open.
Right click on the Caption bar
Select Properties
Select Font and Colour tabs to change the respective properties
And Press OK

I use a dual desktop monitor but not all the time. like when I'm working I use both of the monitors by extending them, when I'm gaming I use only the main monitor. now each time I had to go to the settings, then display, then multiple displays there I had to on and off the other display.
Is there any way so that I can create a shortcut or hotkey to do these changes automatically???
For change display settings use Windows + P shortcut
I've currently connected two monitors via a dock to my notebook.
When I'm running my console application, the console window always pops up on the first monitor. How can I change that it's automatically opened on another monitor, e.g. on monitor 3? Maybe there is a property I need to modify?
It's very annoying to always drag the console window onto the monitor on which my IDE is opened.
Console applications (unlike GUI applications) don't create their own window; that's done by Windows, and in the case when you're running in an already created console, then you kinda inherit, e.g., cmd's window.
What you can do, though, is to find your window and move it to a different monitor.
Another option is to change the window manager settings for that application in the properties of the console window under Layout. Especially the check box »Let system position window«. To do so, first move the window where you'd like it to appear, then open the properties, go to the Layout tab, and just click »OK«.
I need to do display detection in windows script(powerShell is better for this I think?).
Which command will run the same thing which is running when I'm pressing button selected on the image below?
Look into WASP.. you designate a window to look for and which button to press.

To access and control a window, dialog or popup with Autohotkey the title of that specific window is needed. For some windows the title can be read directly if its visible, but some windows hide it. The window class and the exe (ahk_class and ahk_exe) aren't visible at all. How to gather this information reliable?
Use the Window Spy tool, which is installed together with AHK, it can be started various ways:
Right click the tray icon of a running AHK script and select Window Spy
Start the AU3_Spy.exe in the AHK installation folder
Use the Windows search to search for Window Spy
You will get a window called Active Window Info with various infos about your current active (topmost) window. The first box is the one you need.
Example
The box gives title, class and .exe to detect the target window of which every line can be used to identify the window. Now you should activate the window you want to address and copy the information.
Hint: You can (un-)freeze the display with Win + A
In Informatica Designer and Workflow Manager, when the user opens a transformation/session for edit without having it checked out, all the fields are displayed in a really low contrast shade of grey against the white background.
Has anyone found a way to change the color?
UPDATED The original worked somewhat, the real fix is this:
Right click on desktop background - select properties. This is the windows desktop background, nothing to do with infomatica!
Select Appearance tab
Under "Windows and Buttons" select "Windows Classic Style"
Original Answer:
The problems seems to be that windows based themes are used for the background and white (with no way to change it) is used for the font color.
Here is how I fixed it on windows XP:
Right click on desktop background - select properties. This is the windows desktop background, nothing to do with infomatica!
Select Appearance tab
Select Advanced button
Select the Active window (below "Item:" it will now say "Window")
Below "Color 1" select some other color than white.
NOTE: This means the default background color for ALL programs will now be white.
C'est la vie
In case of Windows 7, the only way I found is changing the theme - none of the Aero Themes will work and Windows 7 Basic is still too fancy. You need to use the Windows Classic theme.

The color Informatica chose to use for the "checked in" text is from the "Inactive title bar" for som reason. It can be changed through the control panel:
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Personalization\Window Color and Appearance
Click on
Advanced appearance setting...
Select
Inactive Title Bar
The color you need to change is Color 1
Have your tried changing the colors here - Tool > Options > format?
I was looking for similar solution and finally the above comment helped me to find the proper solution where I am able to see the port name under inactive transformation window in BLACK.
For windows 7 (similar for other windows system too) , go under appearances setting at
Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Personalization\Window Color and Appearance
Open advance appearance setting which will open a new window "Window Color and Appearance" . Here we have multiple color combination setting for different type of display items like message boxes , boarders ,menu etc .
Go to 'Inactive Title Bar' change the Color 1 to black from grey. Leave the color 2 field as its is . Apply and see on the other side that your inactive Informatica transformation window's port are now in Black . Clearly visible.
Seriously , Is that a real problem.
It is good as long as you are able to identify that the object isn't checked out.
