Editing named colors
There are three ways to display the color in the Color Editor
so it can be edited:

Choose from the menu in the Color Editor.

Or right click on the color on the Color Line and choose Edit from the menu that appears.

Or drag & drop a color from the Color Line onto the Color Editor.
You can then edit the color as required. All objects that use this color are automatically and immediately
updated to show the new color.
Renaming named colors
While editing a Named Color, right click on the Color Editor and select Rename

Or right click the color on the Color Line and select Rename.
Deleting named colors
To delete a named color right click on the color on the Color Line and choose Delete
.
Deleting unused colors
To clear the Color Line of unused colors, right click a Theme or Named color and choose Delete
. If the color is being used in the current document, Web Designer Premium displays a message that
allows you to cancel the deletion or use local colors instead.
However note that by default unused named colors are automatically deleted when a document is saved
or loaded. You can change this option in the View tab of the "Utilities" > "Options
" dialog.
Importing named colors
When a design is imported into the current document (e.g. import from the Designs Gallery
, import a XAR file or paste objects in from another design) if there are any named colors in the imported
design which have the same names but different color values as colors in the current design, an alert
appears as follows:
If you want the imported objects to inherit the colors of your current design, choose the "Match
" option. This makes all objects using a given named color use the existing instance of that color as it
appears in the current document.
Alternatively if you want the imported objects to keep their own independent colors, select the "Don't
Match
" option. This adds new named colors into your design, with a number appended to the color names to
distinguish them from the colors already in the current design. This allows the imported objects to keep
their original colors.
Note that if you import objects from lots of different designs and choose "Don't Match
" each time, you will end up with a large number of separate Named Colors on your color line.
