Using palettes

A palette is a window with options you can apply to documents, frames, and
objects. You can open, collapse, and expand palettes, such as the fill, pen,
library, and stylesheet palettes.

Note You can resize some palettes, such as the library and stylesheet
palettes. To resize a palette, hold the mouse button down over the resize box

in the lower-right corner of the palette, and then drag the corner

diagonally until the palette is the size you want.
