Table Of Contents
The same prompt is shown if there are Text Style definition differences between the document and the
imported design. So seeing this prompt does not necessarily mean that there are different named color
definitions ? it could just be due to Text Style differences. See the Text Styles section of the Text
Handling chapter for details.
The match prompt above includes a "Don't ask me again
" checkbox. If you check this, the option you choose will be assumed for all future imports, without
asking you again. However this only applies during the current session, so after a program restart you will
be asked again on the next import if there is a color clash.
Using the Match
option means that you can choose a template, change its theme colors and then import more templates of
the same theme and the imported designs will immediately pick up your modified theme colors.
For example, import a red graphical button from the Designs Gallery, change its main theme color from
red to green, then import a red logo graphic of the same theme and choose the "Match"
option. When the logo appears in your design, instead of being red it will have picked up your chosen
green theme color automatically. Since most themes have their main theme color named "Theme color 1",
you will also usually get good results when importing graphics from different themes and matching the
colors.
Make Named Color local to Frame/Layer
When you click this button, a new named color is created which is
identical to the one you have selected.
This new color is then applied to all objects in the current frame or layer that use the selected named
color. This means that with one click you can localize a color to the frame/layer. You can then
independently edit the original color and this localized color.
This feature is useful when you are creating animations and you want an object's color to change part
way through the animation.
This button is dimmed unless you are editing a named color that is also used in another frame or layer.
