Background picture in Yosemite?
by Eric Gorouben 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

Hi There On pre-Yosemite systems, the background picture of a pkg appeared dimmed behind the text. In Yosemite, the background behind the text is blank (irony in a pan-transluscent OS?) Is there a way to get my dimmed background back? Thanks in advance Eric _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Background image problems with Arabic on 10.9/10.10

Hi, Does anybody have a nice solution for this problem? Best regards, - Erik _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored. Installer-dev mailing list (Installer-dev(a)lists.apple.com) Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: https://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/installer-dev/site_archiver%40lists… This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com In recent Mavericks and Yosemite, the Installer layout for Arabic (possibly all right-to-left languages) changed... the column showing Installer stages is now on the right hand side (which seems more appropriate in right-to-left languages) while it used to be on the left side like left-to-right languages. However this causes problems for a background image containing a logo... previously I aligned the background to 'bottom left', so that the installer resized nicely with the logo placed in the bottom left corner. Now in 10.9/10.10 I need to align it to bottom right, but only for right-to-left languages, and only for 10.9/10.10. Otherwise it is covered by other elements and not placed properly. I'm trying to figure out whether I can write some JavaScript code to put in distribution.dist to do this but I'm stuck. I tried localizing the parameter, and I can pick it up with system.localizedString(...) as evidenced by log output, but I'm not sure how to put it into the 'alignment' parameter of the 'background' tag. I'd like to have something like document.write(...) (commonly used in web development) in order to construct the 'background' tag dynamically with JavaScript, but that doesn't appear to be available...?
