Look! Old one: New one: What do you think? Did you even notice? I don't like it much.

Hey guys Does anyone here know how can I find a word in the QTextEdit and change the color of it. Thanks for your help and remember that no idea is a bad idea.

MY COMPUTER IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME. I NEED IT 100% WORKING. Im a full time manager of a computer shop so I work 9am to 5pm monday to friday. Im also building my own online business which I work on every day from 6pm to 1am and sundays 9am to 10pm. Also because I'm 19yo I'm still getting an education so im currently doing an audio mastering course on saturdays and any other spare time I get. Also note I just dropped $25,000 on my home load so dont have too much money to spend on a new computer at the moment. MY ISSUE All interface devices freeze; this includes display, keyboard, mouse, and speakers/headset switch. Normally i'd assume this was a simply computer freezing but I'm still able to do the following: My music is still playing I'm still able to access my webserver using another computer and browse the site im currently building. I can still play music and videos over the network. My phones bluetooth can still connect and stream music through my PC’s speakers. So as you can see the computer isn't frozen because I can still use it through other devices. its seems like its just the interface locking up. This issue started about a month ago and has happened about 5 or 6 times now. Ive got my Astro A50 wireless headset set as default audio device so when I switch the MIXAMP off my computer will automatically default to my Audioengine A5+ speakers. This allows me to easily switch between headset and speakers by simply turning on and off the headsets MIXAMP. This method doesn't require any 3rd party software. When the freezing issue occurs the system will not switch to headset if i turn the MIXAMP on (windows inst changing audio device). Another issue I regularly have which may or may not be related is windows file explorer stops responding and crashes while attempting to cut and paste files. This happens on average once every 2 days (I probably cut and past hundreds of files in a 2 day period). My system is always running many programs, my CPU never drops below 95%, RAM never below 10GB, HDD occasionally below 100% but rarely less than 10%. My CPU handles sits between 90,000 and 200,000. I restart my computer once about every 3 months. A list of software I have open most of the time or always is listed below and all software listed towards the end of the list is at least opened once between restarts: Sorenson Squeeze: usually 4 to 6 instances of this application encoding videos. Squeeze is always running, its never off, and after a restart its the first application I opened. Brackets: a text editor software that I mostly use for making websites. I also use this softwares live preview feature which is dependent on a 3rd party web service (I use WAMP). Brackets is always open, I don't close this program even if i'm not planning on editing the site for a few days. WAMP: wamp server is a website development environment for Apache, MySQL, and PHP. WAMP is a startup item on my system, it also runs 24/7. Google Chrome: I generally have hundreds of tabs open and 3 instances of chrome running (Normal, Account, and Incognito). Im a bit supported of google apps, so many of my tabs open are in google app’s. About 30-50 tabs open will be google docs/sheets, I always have google drive, google music, and google mail open. NOTE: google music continues to play while my issue occurs (interface freezes). WinRAR: this program runs properly half the time the computer is on. I use WinRAR to compress completed project folders which I then transfer to my NAS for archiving. (I keep all data, never know if you're going to need it again) FileZilla: usually 5 instances open constantly. Adobe Photoshop: use constantly, its opened and closed about 30 times a night. uTorrent: use constantly Adobe Audition: this software is mostly open as I don't close the application until I completely finish a project. I only spend large chunks of time using this software on Saturdays, most of the time its minimized. Adobe Illustrator: use daily Adobe Acrobat Pro: use daily MKVmerge: use daily VLC: use daily Adobe Lightroom: use occasionally Adobe Premier: used occasionally Adobe AfterEffects: used occasionally Sony Vegas Pro 13: used occasionally I'm very careful what software is installed to my system, I try to only use popular well known software. I mostly have professional applications, and have not installed any 3rd party codecs. MY SYSTEM SPECS - yes i know this hardware isn't suitable for what i'm using it for. AMD A10-7800 AsRock A88M-HD+ rev.1 (BIOS ver: 2.70) 16GB Kit of 2133Mhz AMD RAM (Kit of 2) 500GB Samsung EVO 850 SSD 3TB WD RED HDD Noctua low profile CPU cooler LG BluRay Burner Qualcomm Atheros Ar938x Wireless Network Adapter Corsair 550w PSU (yes i know its more than double the wattage I require) NO DEDICATED GRAPHICS Antec NSK-3100 Case WINDOWS 8.1 PRO Windows Defender (no other anti-virus software or on demand scanners.) Other Equipment Astro A50 wireless headset Audioengine D1 DAC Audioengine A5+ Speakers Logitech K290 keyboard Logitech M950 mouse LG 34” Ultrawide display (34UM95) So far what i've done to fix this issue is give my old screen a love tap in which I broke it and my wrist Ive also tried RAM test, HDD test, checkdisk, removing unnecessary hardware (bluetooth dongle, external hard drives, and front panel audio.) Ive also tried updating all drivers. TEST: 2 passes using memtest normal settings, and 3rd pass using multi-threaded mode. HDD test using WD lifeguard.

& it looks cool Firefox has a brand new redesigning to it's search interface & it actually looks cool, The new GUI features a regular drop down search suggestion & you can open the results on another wesite via the given buttons (quick links directly instead of the old method of drop down arrow & change search engine that way) The New Interface looks pretty easy for a fluid & easy workflow , Demo Gif: Pretty neat feature & redesign , a great improvement for firefox users , Imo, I guess this is a very short framework news post from me today as that's the only update available as of now, nothing more, other than that you already know mozzila switched over to yahoo as default search partner, Hope they add in more features to it like this one, leave your thoughts on this down belooooo Link: http://techcrunch.com/2014/11/26/firefox-redesigns-its-search-interface-ahead-of-yahoo-switch/

Hi again, I've been trying to finish up this java project on break, and I've hit a snag with my GUI. Having trouble trying to get my GUI to display text on my text field. You may need all 4 of my classes in order to get my GUI to properly work I know there's a setText() method in java... Just kinda confused how to use it in this case. I've attached my java files as wordpad docs. If someone can take a look at it It'd be much appreciated. Thanks To my understanding when this a button is pressed, and that buttons name is say east. I'd call the method "myGame.move("East")" which would move the player east. In the game class there's a method I made called "getMessage()" which gets a local String variable that contains current message. I would assume the GUI code would then look something like "results.setText(myGame.getMessage())"; results is the text area where I'm displaying the text. but that's giving me errors *Snipit of my code* private class ButtonListener implements ActionListener{ public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){ // extract the button that was clicked JComponent buttonPressed = (JComponent) e.getSource(); String temp; if (buttonPressed == quitItem){ System.exit(1); }else if (buttonPressed == newItem){ newGame(); }else if (buttonPressed == east){ myGame.move("East"); temp = myGame.getMessage(); results.setText(temp); }else if (buttonPressed == west){ myGame.move("West"); results.setText(myGame.getMessage()); }else if (buttonPressed == north){ myGame.move("North"); results.setText(myGame.getMessage()); }else if (buttonPressed == south){ myGame.move("South"); results.setText(myGame.getMessage()); }else if (buttonPressed == take){ myGame.take(); results.setText(myGame.getMessage()); }else if (buttonPressed == look){ myGame.look(); results.setText(myGame.getMessage()); }else if (buttonPressed == hold){ myGame.show(); results.setText(myGame.getMessage()); }else if (buttonPressed == help){ myGame.help(); results.setText(myGame.getMessage()); }else if (buttonPressed == drop){ String item = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "What do you want to drop?"); if (item != null){ myGame.drop(item); } } results.append("\n\n" + myGame.getMessage()); if (myGame.gameOver()){ gameOver(); } } } Item.rtf Room.rtf game.rtf GUI.rtf

Hi guys, I imagine it would display all the files just like a normal windows explorer window but me clicking on any of them instantly allows me to rename the files as this is all it's purpose is. It would also allow me to jump between directories easily. That's just my "perfect world" idea though. Anything similar would work. I have 1000+ files to rename in multiple (300+) directories. So... yeah. :| Help is appreciated. I haven't started yet, as I'm waiting for the files to mirror onto another server, but once that's done, I'll be editing them (Monday, or 72 hours from now roughly).

I'm just wondering if its possible to program a GUI or even the entire software interface for a jet fighter using x86 hardware with all aircraft specific hardware going into an emulator or translator that turns certain data like data from the radar into data that x86 hardware can read. I'm just wondering if this is possible because the F-35 has a really great cockpit layout were the entire cockpit is basically a giant monitor that display important flight and radar data. BTW I frogot to mention that the flight display is also a touch screen, so you can choice your weapons or radar targets with a touch of an icon or target to lock on to.

I have been running running GUI Miner to mine Litecoins when I am not using my computer, which has primarily been whilst sleeping and at school. I know there is a lot of time that I could be mining if I wasn't letting my computer idle when I forget to switch GUI Miner on. So I was wondering, is their any way to set a miner to start after 15 minutes of inactivity? I'm using Windows 7 by the way.

Requirements: Windows OS (Vista+) PC with an active Ethernet connection AND a WiFi adapter A device with WiFi capabilities lacking a connection No router, or, the desire to do this for fun

Good day guys, can you suggest some software that is easy to use and learn for creating a GUI for desktop based application some where like the looks of blender 3D and adobe photshop CS6. I want those things like some sliding animation and can be used for flat design but its easy to use. I can understand some css and javascript but I can't find those feature in creating something like that for desktop application. can you suggest something that is easy to understand like css and javascript for creating a desktop application?

I don't know about anyone else but do you feel websites (and GUIs in general) need to do more to: Use more easily distinguishable colour schemes? http://colorbrewer2.org/ provides many different schemes including photocopy and colourblind safe options. Follow Schneiderman's 8 Golden Rules?
