Applying scheme colors to objects
If you create new objects in a web template site, or start a site from scratch, how
can you extend a color scheme to the new objects? Although you'll need to
spend some time working out which color combinations look best, the
mechanics of the process are simple. Recalling the paint-by-numbers example
above, all you need to do is assign one of the five scheme color numbers to an
object's line and/or fill.
To assign a scheme color to an object:
1. Select the object and choose a Fill, Line, or Text
button at the top of the Swatches tab depending on the desired effect.
2. From the bottom of the Swatches tab, click on a scheme color
(numbered 1 to 5) that you want to apply to the fill, line and text (or
you can drag the color instead).
If an object's fill uses a scheme color, the corresponding sample in Swatches tab
will be highlighted whenever the object is selected.
Modifying color schemes
If you've tried various color schemes but haven't found one that's quite right, you
can modify any of the colors in an existing scheme.
To modify a color scheme:
1. Click Color Scheme Designer on the default context toolbar.
2. From the Color Schemes tab, select the scheme to modify (doubleclick
a scheme or select and click Load).
