Is it possible to set color of texts in dialog boxes of Applescript? - macos

Is there any way that the text's color inside a dialog box of Apple script can be changed???
Please reply
Thanks in advance.

No, there is not a way to change the text color in a AppleScript dialog box. However, you can change other aspects such as displaying an icon, making the text field display the letters as bullets (for things like passwords), etc. See AppleScript Wiki for more info.

Text should not be displayed behind the button VC++

I am designing a search text box, with close button at the end(will be shown when TextLength > 0).
But when entering lengthy text, the close button hide the last part of text. I need to restrict the text to not cross the close button.
Note: I dont wont to restrict the MaxLength of characters, but the max length of characters to be displayed inside the textbox.
It appears that the close button is overlapping the search text box.
If you are using MFC, then you can use CEdit::SetRect to set the formatting rectangle of edit text. If not MFC, then use EM_SETRECT message to do the same.
I have done similar stuff in my article here: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/15043/iTunes-like-Find-Edit-Control

I don't know how to align the text in the text box. I need to change the font size, font type in the text box. Is anybody know that means send me the answer?
Its rather simple.
Follow these steps and you will be done with what you need.
In your storyboard, select your text box and then open up the Interface Builder.
In the Interface Builder,you will see properties for "Alignment","Text Size" and Color.
Make appropriate changes there and your done.

Microsoft Word Highlighting Text White

For some reason, whenever I create a Text Box and start typing, the background text is highlighted white and I can't make it transparent. This picture should explain everything:
I want to remove the highlighting so the gradient in the background shows through. I used to do things like this a lot, but for some reason Word won't let me now. Any suggestions?
I am on Word 2011 Mac
Got some clues here and finally found a solution for MSWord for Mac version 16.9:
Select the text you want to fix
Select "Design" Tab
Click "Page Borders"
Click the "Shading" Tab
Select Apply to "Text"
[Fill] is showing "No Color". Open the selection and re-select "No Color"
Hit "OK"
Worked for me. It is obviously a bug in Word.
Right-click the text box that you want to make invisible.
If you want to change multiple text boxes, click the first text box or shape, and then press and hold SHIFT while you click the other text boxes.
On the shortcut menu, click Format Text Box.
On the Colors and Lines tab, in the Fill section, click the arrow next to Color, and then click No Color.
On the Colors and Lines tab, in the Line section, click the arrow next to Color, and then click No Color.
Click OK. Your textbox's background is now invisible...
It seems the actual text highlight is your problem, so try:
Go into Borders and Shading, apply it to text, and set it to clear. Had me confused because I've never had to do this before.
As seen here.
I also searched around and had trouble finding this.
In Word for Mac 2011
Highlight the text
Click tables in the ribbon
Find the shading icon (looks like a paint bucket)
Click the down arrow next to the bucket and select No Fill
Change the text format from anything apart from Normal text.(important)
Solution 1
Select the Text box and go to the "format" tab,
modify the outline and fill options
if this isn't enough
Solution 2
select the Text box and right click for options
select the last option "format shape"
