foreground color and some are assigned the background color. Other color properties,
such as Fill color, cannot be assigned using the color toolbars (instead, use the object’s
Properties dialog box or the Property Panel).
This table lists the color properties you can assign using the color toolbars:
For objects with states, the selected color is applied to the current state’s color properties
only. In the Property Panel, properties that apply to states have “St_” at the beginning of
the property name.
When to select colors using the toolbars
For all the drawing objects except image and panel, you can select colors from the color
toolbars before you draw an object (either before or after you click the object’s tool).
The other objects are always drawn using their default colors, but you can select the
objects and then click the toolbars to change their colors. The toolbars are especially
useful for quickly assigning the same colors to multiple objects.
