Coloring Imported Clipart
When you import a clipart graphic by dragging from the Design Gallery, using the "File" > "Import"
option, or dragging a .web or .xar file onto your page, you will usually be asked whether you want to
match the colors. If you select not to, then any named colors used in this graphic will be added to the
Color Line. Clicking on any color on the Color Line will give you the option to edit the color.
Coloring Photos
If you try to color a photo it turns it into a 'contoned' photo. For example, to make any photo black and
white, right click and choose "Contone" > "Make black and white" or select it and click on the white
color patch on the end of the Color Line. You can set the light or dark color to be any two colors, not
just white and black - right click, choose "Contone" > "Light
" and click a color in the Color Editor.
Note: If the photo is inside a group, as many of the photo objects in the templates or clipart are, then
you will have to select the photo inside the group first. You can do this by holding "Ctrl" down when
clicking on the object in the Selector Tool. Another way of directly selecting the photo is to click on it in
the Photo Tool
.
Page Background Color
Most of the page designs in the Design Gallery
have two types of background. A wide page background that extends across the background of the
whole browser window. And on top of this is drawn the web page elements, that usually consists of
various colored panels.
On the Color Line there is usually one color named 'Background Color', another 'Panel Color', and by
editing these you can control the various background colors. The other colors used are typically Theme
Color 1, 2 etc
