Open the default Colour Swatches

Hi All,
How do I open the default Gradient Swatch from C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS5\Presets\en_GB\Swatches\Gradients? Everytime I open the new document, it is nothing under the Swatches. Pls help and adv. Thank you.

The color swatch presets are actually saved within the default document profiles(see below for location on mac-similar on pc). Edit and save these files. When you make new document choose the appropriate profile you edited.

  • Is it possible to set the default colours in the swatches palette in Illustrator CS4?

    Is it possible to set the default colours in the swatches palette in Illustrator CS4? What I mean is replace the swatches default colour palette with my own, so that each time I create a new document it comes up with my colours rather than Illustrators.

    You might also consider using color groups with Illustrator. Let me know what you think. It may help you out with projects that use the same color preferences.

    Well, I'm getting closer.  I have resorted the legend according to the order of the lines on the chart, by doing the following:
    > chart expert
    > data tab
    > select field from "On change of" list
    > Top N button
    > For this group sort "All", based on the same field as I selected from the "On Change of" list, in descending order
    > click OK and OK again.
    Although this worked, I'm pretty sure it's sorting on the wrong year.  I would like the legend to be sorted descending, according to the values in 2010, not 2006, which it appears to be doing.  Any ideas?
    By the way, my apologies if I mislead anyone by saying I have grouped charts.  It's actually an advanced report that is grouped by one of my data fields.  This produces a new chart for each group automatically.
    Thanks again.  I appreciate all offers of help!

  • Acrobat X: Can you make 'open' the default option when opening sharepoint documents?

    When you open a sharepoint document with acrobat X, you get the pop-up screen asking you how you want to access the file. The option are 'check out and open', or just 'open'.
    Is it possible to make 'open' the default access methode, so that you don't have to click on the pop-up for every document?

    Hi Deedee,
    No, it's not really possible to set this default. 
    That said, there's a registry key setting you can change to disable the SharePoint integration feature though. 
    They key is:
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\(product name)\(version)\FeatureLockdown\cSharePoint
    Summary: Disables the SharePoint integration features.
    Details:  Controlls the application's ability to detect that a file came from a Sharepoint server, disables the check-out prompt, and removes the SharePoint specific menu items. Possible values include:
    0: Disable the SharePoint integration features.
    1: Same as "null." Don't disable the SharePoint integration features.
    This may not really fit your need though.

  • Please can someone help me to get back the default colours on my mac book pro

    Help can anyone out there please help me get back the default colour settings on my mac book pro!

    Hi, thank you very much for your reply. I finally found out how to solve the problem. In System Preferences you go into Accesibilities and then you have to uncheck the box for Invert colour, somehow this got checked (no idea how!) anyway if checked all the colours go weird and photos & pics look like negatives. So I hope this will help other people too if they ever get this problem.

  • Firefox by default opens the last used profile. I want it to open the default profile always unless specified with -P option

    To make it more clear. If I use the following command
    firefox -P profileRare
    and then close the firefox, When I open the firefox again with by giving
    firefox
    It opens the profileRare again. Is there anyway to override this behaviour and open default profile when I call firefox without -P option?

    Make sure that the profile that you want to use as the default is set as Default=1 in the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/profiles.ini_file profiles.ini]
    If you use -P "profile_name" then the selected profile shouldn't change. Only if you use the profile manager and select a new profile then that profile will become the last selected profile, so make sure that "Don't ask at startup" is selected.

  • How do I set the default colour of hyperlinks to blue?

    Hi,
    In Pages 5.2.2, I've noticed that my new hyperlinks for web pages and email addresses are black.
    Apart from changing them to blue for each individual link, is there a way to make blue the default color?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Select the word that is linked. Press Command+T to launch the Font Tool. The left drop-down button on that toolbar is for underlined text. Choose color from this menu. Pick your hyperlink color, and it will change in your document.
    Now, while the hyperlinked word with its new color is still selected, you can update the existing Link character style, or press + to create a new one from your selected text. Change the name to Blue Link, press return, and you are done. The next time you need a blue hyperlink after you have added one, select the hyperlinked word, and choose the Blue Link character style. Also useful, if you just want a blue underlined word that is not a hyperlink.
    To make the hyperlink color default to blue, you will have to create a template that has the Character Style Link changed to blue. There is no setting you can change otherwise.

  • Can GB open the default GUI for an AU?

    Any generator or effect that has a custom GUI makes the iControl essentially useless. I use a number of AUs that have custom GUIs.
    In other AU hosts, there's a relatively simple way to open the standard GUI instead. For a few units--e.g., ABL, Cube--this is completely unusable, but for others, it's just fine.
    Unfortunately, I can't find any way to do this in GB3. I've searched the manuals, and I've tried all the obvious stuff, like option-clicking the pencil button (which seems to just make the custom GUI popup and immediately close), and nothing seems to work.
    What I'd really like to do is have the iControl Generator and Effect buttons pop up the standard GUI. I asked M-Audio about this, and they say that it's a confirmed bug in either GarageBand or OS X, so I have to report it to Apple. I'm not sure they're right about this, but that's what they said.
    Meanwhile, another user told me that all control surfaces have to have a plist somewhere to map what the controls do. I looked through iControl.bundle and didn't see anything likely (and I'm not sure what I'd map the controls to anyway, since I don't know how to make GB open the standard GUI in the first place).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Lots of apps can show the generic interface, and you could write a new one in an hour. In some apps, holding in a modifier key while clicking the equivalent of a pencil button does it. But I tried all the modifiers with GB. I'm guessing they just didn't implement that feature for some reason, but I'd like to actually know that. (Or, better, I'd like to know that they did, and how to access it.)
    Anyway, your mapping idea won't work. iControl can't remap its controls--iControl can't map its controls; each button or knob sends a fixed, specific (and arbitrary--see http://homepage.mac.com/rfwilmut/notes/GBcontrol.html) MIDI message. There's a special iControl driver embedded in GB that interprets these messages to do the right thing. For plugins with generic GUIs, you can control the sliders fine; for plugins with Carbon (or Cocoa) GUIs, you can't.
    If anyone knows the answer, please let me know.
    Thanks.
