Using the Colors Window
You use the Colors window to select color for objects.
You can use the color wheel in the Colors window to select colors. The color you select
appears in the box at the top of the Colors window. You can save that color for future
use by placing it in the color palette.
To apply the colors you select in the Colors window to an object on the slide, you must
place the color in the appropriate color well in an Inspector pane. You can select a color
well in one of the Inspectors, and then click a color in the color wheel. Or you can drag
a color from the color palette or color box to a color well in one of the Inspectors.
To select a color:
1 Open the Color window by clicking Colors in the toolbar or clicking a color well in one
of the inspectors.

window.
4 To make the color more transparent, drag the Opacity slider to the left or enter a
percentage value in the Opacity field.
5 To use the color palette, open it by dragging the handle at the bottom of the Colors
window. Save a color in the palette by dragging the color from the color box to the
color palette. To remove a color from the palette, drag a blank square to the color you
want to remove.

wheel appears in this box. (The
