Replacing colors
The Color Replacer allows you to replace or change a color in a graphic for another color or set
the color as transparent. Up to four colors can be replaced at once. The tool works on the entire
graphic and you cannot select an area of the graphic for editing.
The Color Replacer can only be used on embedded graphics. If you try to use the Color
Replacer on a linked graphic, you will get the following error message This graphic is linked to a
document. Do you want to unlink the graphic in order to edit it?
The selection list for replacement colors shows all the available colors in the current color palette of
the drawing. You cannot define any new colors here but you can add colors to the available palette
before using the Replace Color tool. For more information on this topic, see Chapter 10 Advanced
Draw Techniques.
