Using the Color palette



The Color palette lets you quickly and easily color text and objects in your Web pages. The Color palette actually contains several individual palettes which you can use to find a color that meets your particular needs. Similar to tabs in the Objects palette, the Color palette contains buttons which you click to display the desired individual palettes. The Color palette also features a palette menu, which you can use to show or hide buttons, as well as select options to display color values in percentages or the 256 numerical scale. For instructions on using the Color palette, see Working with color.

To show the Color palette and any palettes in its group:

Do one of the following:

  • Choose Window > Color.
  • Click any color field in the Inspector.

  • To show or hide buttons in the Color palette:

    Click the triangle in the upper right corner of the Color palette to display the Color palette menu, and choose Show Buttons.

    To display color values in the Color palette using percentages or the 256 numerical scale:

    Click the triangle in the upper right corner of the Color palette to display the Color palette menu, and choose Percent Values. (A check mark next to the Percent Values option indicates that the color values are shown in percentages.)
