Colour, Fills, and Transparency 221
To assign a scheme colour to an object:
1. Select the object and choose a Fill, Line, or Text
button at the top of the Swatches tab depending on the desired effect.
2. From the bottom of the Swatches tab, click on the scheme colour that
you want to apply to the fill, line, or text (or you can drag the colour
instead).
If an object's fill uses a scheme colour, the corresponding sample in Swatches
tab will be highlighted whenever the object is selected.
PagePlus lets you create your own colour scheme either from scratch or by
modifying an existing scheme. See online Help for more information.
Modifying and creating colour schemes
If you've tried various colour schemes but haven't found one that's quite right,
you can modify any of the colours in an existing scheme to create a new one, or
create your own named scheme from scratch.
To modify or create a colour scheme:
1. Select Scheme Manager... from the Tools menu.
The Scheme Manager dialog appears, with the current scheme
colours shown on the Edit tab.
2. To select a different scheme, switch to the dialog's Schemes tab and
select a scheme in the scrolling list. Clicking OK at this point applies
the scheme to the publication, or you can go back to the Edit tab and
adjust scheme colours.
On the Edit tab, each of the five scheme colour numbers has its own drop-down
list, showing available colours in the PagePlus palette. (Additionally, you'll see
options for web publishing scheme colours for Hyperlink, Followed Hyperlink,
Active Hyperlink, Rollover Hyperlink, Background and On-page.)
3. To set or change a colour, simply click the adjacent button and select a
new colour. Click More Colours... to display the Colour Selector.
