Acumatica adding new fonts to advanced report designer - acumatica

We have a customer with an invoice print layout that requires a specific font. Is it possible to add new font type like Raleway to Acumatica report designer for invoices?
Thanks

The font can be selected in the name property of the report editor:
This lists fonts installed on the machine where report editor is executed. To handle custom fonts you need to install it on the developper machine and the server hosting Acumatica.
To install a truetype font in Windows simply drop the '.ttf' file in 'Windows\Fonts' folder. Restarting applications could be necessary to rebuild the font cache and make it available (this is application specific):
In Report Editor I suggest you set a global font in Report element if you want to set it as a default font for that report:
Make sure you have set PdfFontEmbedded to True otherwise system fonts will be used when viewing PDF.

Just for reference in case others have a problem installing fonts on a windows 10 computer.

How to change the font of Visual Studio Code's UI?

I'm trying to figure out how to change the font used in non-editor tabs in Visual Studio Code; right now this is what I'm getting (zoom the picture to better see what I'm referring to):
As you can see, a Serif font is used on these non-editor tabs (extension info, Git Graph tab, etc.), making it quite unpleasant and really hard to read.
This happened all of a sudden, I'm quite sure that it is not the default and a nicer and more readable Sans font was used before (like on the left panel), until this problem occurred. I've tried to find if it is possible to change this from inside VSC, but I'm only able to change the fonts used in the editor tabs.
I don't know why and how this behavior has started, and I'm not really sure if this issue is caused by VSC itself, by an extension, by the OS, or something else.
If it matters, I'm working on Linux, on a fully updated openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE, and like I said this problem started to manifest itself only recently, it was not how it worked by default.
Any clue on how to solve this?
Visual Studio Code does not offer convenient solution out of the box to change the UI font family.
But a developer created the Customize UI plugin for VS Code.
⚠️ EDIT 02/01/2023: following the version 1.74, the Customize UI plugin no longer work, see here. There is currently no ways to change the font in VSCode.
Setup
Install the Customize UI plugin
Restart VS Code
Open VS Code Settings
Change Customize UI Font:Monospace to Fira Code
Change Customize UI Font:Regular to Helvetica Nueve or Arial depending on your OS
Alternativaly, you can edit those settings using the json settings editor as follow:
"customizeUI.font.regular": "Helvetica Nueve",
"customizeUI.font.monospace": "Fira Code",
GitHub issue here
vscode is an electron app so you can actually just open up the developer tools in the help menu, look up the location of workbench.desktop.main.css under the source tab, make a backup and edit the font-family rule for your OS.
There's a pretty gnarly-phrased notification that pops up about vscode being corrupted, however the linked-documentation is fairly clear it's just unsupported officially.
In most of the Linux distributions we get the option to change the fonts systemwide if you are okay with changing the system font.

Android Studio 3.4 - layout designer "tools" missing

When designing layouts in the Designer of Android Studio 3.4 I am missing the "tools" feature.
In older versions, there was a small button that allowed to set a properts in the tools mode (only visible in designer) instead of setting it for the android name space.
So in the XML it would be written
tools:background="#aaa"
instead of
android:background="#aaa"
However, with the new version, this is gone. It only seems to show the wrench symbol when I set this manually in the XML. But the button for adding a tools-property directly seems gone.
Any idea where the button went to?
Check under declared attributes
Press the + sign on the right and you can see a new row has been added below where you can search tools: {see the image below}
Or still, you can use the old school way like the above pic.

Same executable with different icons

I want to open a pdf-viewer (okular) with different icons from the gnome-console.
Basically I want to differentiate between pdfs I am reading. Some would have the default okular icon, but I would like to have a different/special icon for the pdf generated by the LaTeX document I am editing.
Thinking about how to do this, I realized that I am not sure how gnome knows what icon to use when I execute /usr/bin/okular from the console. How is that bin related with an icon, no .desktop file involved right?
Applications set their icon at launch, to a compiled-in value. Most do it using the API of their graphics toolkit (Gtk provides various forms of the gtk_window_set_icon API call), but it has its roots in an X Windows window-manager property that's as old as dirt — which is why, for example, okular still has an application icon in Gnome Shell even though it's a KDE application.
You can see a grayscale representation of the icon(s) an application is exporting if you type xprop in a terminal, then click the application's window. (You need to have the correct utilities package installed, it's called xorg-x11-utils in Fedora.)
The application icon doesn't depend on Gnome or on the .desktop file under any circumstances.
(In fact, you could create your own $HOME/.local/share/applications/okular.desktop file that represented the application with a different icon, and launch it by clicking that icon, but it would be ignored in favor of the one that's compiled in to the application once it started. I have some custom launchers in my Favorites panel for different VNC sessions, using a different icon for each, but they all show up as TigerVNC with the standard icon when launched.)
AFAIK the only way to do what you want would be to compile your own separate version of okular with the icon changed to something else. That's just not the way application icons were meant to be used, sorry.

How can i change menu color or submenu color in sugarcrm 6.5.0 RC1 CE?

How can i change menu color or submenu color in sugarcrm 6.5.0 RC1 CE ?
I am changing in themes/Sugar5/css/style.css file but it is being not changed.
Place your CSS modifications in custom/themes/default/css/style.css and ensure you run a Repair & Rebuild once your code is in place. Make sure the file and all dirs leading to it have appropriate permissions.
If it's not working after that, use Chrome's developer tools to see if your CSS is properly loading at all and see how it's affecting the elements you're working on.
See the themedef.php file in the theme folder. You need to make the colour changes in this file.
However, first turn the developer mode on from Admin>Settings to avoid the cache issue.

Windows 8.1 - Possible to change tile colour?

Since upgrading to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8 I've noticed the colour of the tiles looks awful, is there a way to change these that is...
Free
Doesn't involve hacking around with registry/XML files
As you can see below my GIT icons are barely visible :(
I don't have a non XML Solution, but the XML solution is quite easy to follow and could easily be converted into a tool.
For example to change the background of the GIT Bash tile:
the shorcut of the tile links to something like: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i (to find the shortcut: right click -> goto location)
Go to the folder of the executable (here C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin)
Create a sh.visualelementsmanifest.xml with the content:
<Application xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<VisualElements
BackgroundColor="maroon"
ShowNameOnSquare150x150Logo="on"
ForegroundText="light"/>
</Application>
(full spec at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/dn393983.aspx)
Update the shorcut file time stamp (e.g. copy file, delete old file)
Enjoy new tile. For example:
In reference to Xyroid's answer which has - so far - received no points, maybe this is because the link has changed / gone.
OblyTile, for those who want a GUI to manage Tile design, works perfectly on my Windows 8.1
The link to this is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1899865
In particular, the developer has provided much improved icons for some internal windows apps (e.g. Control Panel) where the standard tile doesn't really match the design of the other Modern App tiles.
(I would have just added a comment, but I still need more reputation)!
According to Desktop App Tiles on the Start Screen, the background color of desktop app's Start menu tile is derived from the user's chosen background color, so try changing Start menu's background color.
