Change the color swatch

I was wondering if there was any way that I could either
change the little color swatch next to my username or choose which
color swatch would be used? Could there be something added to the
My Kuler section that would allow me to choose what I wanted
instead of using the first color theme that I created.
Thanks for the help.

Hello, yes, currently the color theme avatar is the first
theme you create. Others have requested the ability to change their
avatar, but the current workaround seems to be deleting that first
theme and then it changes... sometimes. Thanks for your patience.

Is there a way to change the color of a linked eps or ai file in InDesign?

I have a questionaire form that I'm placing in several documents. I need it to be exactly the same in all instances except that it occurs in 4/c on some docs and 1/c (black) on others.
It'd be best to have all the Indesign files link to the same eps (or ai, or eps) file so that I know any change to the text of the linked questionaire will be reflected on all of the InDesign docs. But I don't think InDesign will let me change the color of the text and other filled or stoked elements of eps, ai, or pdf files.
I can change a these in a grayscale tif file. But rasterising the questionaire at a high dpi somewhat defeats the live update feature I'm trying to add here (and bloats my file size).
Could the fact that I can't change the document color mode to grayscale in AI be a factor here?
Thank you for your time!

The only way I can think of is to use a Spot Colour in Illustrator.
You can then place that into InDesign and the Spot Colour should show up in the Swatches Panel.
In InDesign - create a New Swatch and have this be a Spot colour too.
Using the Swatches Panel flyout menu (top right) you can go Ink Manager...
From here you can Map the colour used in Illustrator to the colour you have creaeted in InDesign.
This will replace the colour in InDesign only - and results may vary on output.
You will need to use View>Overprint Preview to view the results.
Hope that helps.

Changing the Color of an Object in Elements 4.0

Neither of the two methods documented in Elements 4.0 to change the color of an object seem to work on my object. It is a fleur-de-lis that I extracted from a PDF an artist made for me some time ago. It's now black and I want to make it gold. What am I doing wrong?

The first is to select Enhance, Adjust Color, Change Color, select the color to be changed with the eye dropper and the color to change to in the bottom window. Then select okay. Okay. In my case, nothing happens.
The color replacement command doesn't work on pure black or white.
If the design is black over white, try using a solid color fill and one of the lighten blend modes.
How?
Sample the gold color you want and have it as the foreground color chip. Add a solid color adjustment layer over your black and white design. The color should automatically be the foreground color in your tool box. Since should have changed this swatch to the desired shade of gold, it should be gold. Now, for the magic. If you change the blend mode of the solid color fill layer to "lighten", "screen", "linear dodge", or "lighter color", the black will be replaced by your gold.
Note: I'm not sure which if any of the Elements versions includes the "lighter color" blend mode so if you can't find that one...don't panic.

I have a logo from another source and need to change the colors of it, HOW?

I had an outside source build me a logo which I want to use for my product labels etc. but I'm having trouble figuring out how to format a template for the correct size to transfer to the labels and I cant figure out how to change the color/colors of the logo that I was given?

Andy,
The trial works just as the paid one, same version, only time limited.
If you open the AI version, what happens when you Alt/OptionClick (hold Alt if on Windows, Option if on Mac when clcking) one of the areas you wish to colour change?
If we are lucky, that will select the area, and you may change the colour (if you have selected the Fill box rather than the Stroke box at the bottom of the Toolbox); you may set the CMYK or RGB values in Window>Color (choose the relevant one from the flyout), or from the Window>Swatches, or in a few other ways.

Is there any way to change the color scheme in a document in Pages?

I have come from a PC using Publisher for a weekly newsletter and am trying to use Pages to accomplish the same thing. i want to change the color scheme from week to week and have not found a way to accomplish this.
I am currently using Word for Mac for this, but I would like to move over to Pages. I'm playing with it some, but can't seem to find a way to change the color of the publication from week to week. To change to another template all together would cause me to have to reinvent the wheel each and every week, and I'm not willing to do that.
Adobe Illustrator is an option, but it looks mighty complicated to set it up... And I've balked at the price tag.
Any suggestions?

Pages does not have Themes like Word.
There might be other ways to achieve what you want by swapping master objects and changing colors of Styles. A bit more work but not horrendously more.
You can name color swatches in the Color Picker so you could set up a set of colors there then update styles and objects systematically using those swatches.
Illustrator would be an extremely poor choice for a Newsletter.
Have a look at the new Swift Publisher 3 in the App Store, currently 30% off. They have added some very good tools that have brought it into a much more Pro usable form. Including many key features that Pages lacks.

Have a "sphere" with gradients, how do I change the colors?

I have an Illustrator file of a sphere though its not technically a sphere. Its a circle but when clicked, the frame edges that show on it seems to show is as being one, really dont know how to describe this. Its best to look at the attached screen shot. There are gradients also involved. Normally I would just change out the swatches but no swatches were saved for it. I have a better than average understanding of Illustrator and vector files but this one is throwing me for a loop. How would I go about changing the colors of the gradients in this?

Wade_Zimmerman wrote:
Select the object, then select the gradient panel click the marker you want to change then option click a color or swatch you want it to change to.
There you are.
But first check with the appearance panel by first selecting the art and the in the appearance panel see if it has a 3D effect.
BY the way if you want to let us see you screenshot click on the camera icon and attache the file that way.
under Appearance, I have "Mesh Points" and "Mixed Appearances". Nothing seems to be grouped so i cant seem to separate what those mixed appearances are.
I looked at the gradient panel. It does show dark to light orange but it doesnt show any little tabs to adjust or if its liner or radial.

Help! placed grayscale TIFF won't let me change its color swatch...

help! placed grayscale TIFF won't let me change its color swatch...
Tried re-launching application, re-booting PC in case of a technical glitch. Something with graphics frames that needs to be re-stored that I am unaware of?
I also tried creating a new page, importing another image and still experiencing the issue.
How do I "re-set" my settings so it will work once again?
Thank you!

Here's the info on resetting your prefs: Replace Your Preferences
But that's not likely the problem. Are you sure the images are really grayscale mode? What format are they saved in? They cannot be colorized in ID if they are transarent or lack a Background layer.

How do I change the color of Basic Graphic Lines?

I used the basic graphic lines in the swatch library - (swatch libraries>patterns>basic graphics>basic graphics lines) to fill a retangle. My question is, can I change the colors of the lines? I have tried everything I know and can't seem to figure it out. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Almost answered - Thank you. The problem I am having is, I was able to drag the swatch onto the artboard and change the colors, but I am not able to drag the new colored one back to the swatch panel. All the swatches in that panel are black and white by default I guess. These are stock swatches. I am working on a PC if that makes a difference. I click the swatch with the selection tool and drag (control>drag?) and I get the little box with the + sign in it when I try to drag, but it bounces back. Any Suggestions. I am a total amature at this program, and am basically self taught.

Can you change the color of the page?

Can you change the color of the page using In Design CS5.5 ?
How?

Are you intending to print a color onto the page to change the color or perhaps you need a colored background for onscreen output? Or are you planning on printing on already-colored stock?
For the former, use Scott's suggestion, for the latter edit the Paper swatch.

Pages, change the color

I have no idea why but I am having problem changing the color of some objects in Pages. I have a rectangle and I click on it and it highlights it but when I try to change the color, the color circle changes but not the rectangle. I don't get it, I have changed things before. Any ideas? They are the menu cards for my wedding in a few days and I am freaking out
Thank you!

Celia,
Sorry you're having problems with this. After I read your email, I inserted a rectangle into a blank document, clicked on the Graphic inspector, selected Color Fill from the menu, then clicked on the color swatch. When I clicked on the color wheel, my object changed color. I then tried it a different way, using the crayon icon. I clicked on a crayon, and again my object changed color.
Try using the crayons. Click on one of them, and if the object doesn't change color, click in the color swatch, then drag the color to the object. See if that works.

Change the color of the outer line of a shape

Hello I'm trying to create a rectangle with a red border and no inside fill. It's only to highlight some text of a bank form.
I know i have to right click the layer and choose blending options and stroke. But I've tried to change the color so many times and no matter what I do, the outer line remains gray and with rounded corners.
I want the corners of the rectangle to be squared, not rounded but I'm having a hard time changing this.
Please help
I'm using Photoshop CS3
thank you
Could anyone please show a picture of where to change the color of the outer line? I've tried everything.

Hi,
With Ps CS3, you'll probably want to define a Layer Style for a Stroke and then use that with the Square Shape Layers.
This is a Stroke of 4 px, 'Centered' (so a very slight corner rounding on the outside edge. 'Inside' will give you square corners for both inside and outside edges). To change the color of the stroke, go to Layer> Layer Style> Stroke and change the color by clicking on the color bar.
regards,
steve

I am unable to change the color of text in an email I replay to or compose. I am on 31.6.0 release of Thunderbird.

When I receive, reply or compose email. I no longer am able to see or change the color of text. I select to change the text from black to Red (or any other color) and the text just stays black, The color seletor box will show the last select color, but never actually changes the text color in an email. Also in received email, when the sender has indicated their replies to me are in another color, All the text only appears as black. I never had this problem in the past, not sure what has happened. I did restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled and this did not change the problem.

Every time I try to replace text on a brochure template, the colors inexplicably change- and when I try and change the color, it doesn't let me- help, very frustrated:) Please respond in laymen's terms:P

Hello Everyone,
I am working with the Green Grocery Newsletter Template, and I am trying to substitute the text. As an example of my issue, when I highlight the title text and start typing, it turns blue, even though the text color box still shows green. Actually, any text I try to replace turns blue! If I try to change the color of my blue text, the text color box shows the new color, but the text on the template is of course, still blue.
Please help:)! So frustrated and on a deadline.
Thank you:)!

Just wondering, when you pull up the inspector, is the writing that is coming up blue a hyperlink (when you click on it, will it take you to a web page or an e-mail)?

I need to change the color of the font in my Bookmark Toolbar. Unable to read all bookmarks.

No longer have a question about editing the Bookmarks Toolbar. I may be dense, but I have not discovered how I may change the text (font) color when using View, Bookmarks, Custom. I see the capability to choose to use text and image, but not to change the color of the text. The ability to "bold" the text would probably be sufficient. I will revisit the Getting Started page and select other background colors to try and alleviate the problem. Persona or thema colors conflict with black text (for my older eyes - I have a vision problem.).

You can make such a change with code in userChrome.css
Add code to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css userChrome.css] below the @namespace line.<br />

How to change the color in "blocks" effect

Hi,
I've got a problem with Motion.
I use a "behaviour" effect on my text that is called "blocks".
When I set parameters to default, I see a blue effect with some red blocks in backgroud.
I want to turn this effect into a green effect.
The problem is that when I change the color into green, there is still a strange orange color on some blocks.
I've added all the color parameters (face, shadow...)that I thought it could be due to but nothing changes. I still have this strange color on some blocks.
The strangest thing is that it sometimes becomes ok when I make the changes but when I save and re-open my file in FCP or Motion, it isn't ok.
Has anyone already used this effect and seen that problem?
Thanks for your help...

Text behaviors work by sequencing the Text's parameters.
Try changing the color of your text's outline.
Select the Text tab in the Inspector
Go to the Style sub tab
change the Outline color to green
Hope that helps.
