Use the Stroke Color and Fill Color controls in the Tools panel

The Tools panel Stroke Color and Fill Color controls set the painting attributes of new objects you create with the drawing and painting tools. To use these controls to change the painting attributes of existing objects, first select the objects on the Stage.

Note: Gradient swatches appear only in the Fill Color control.
  • Click the triangle next to the Stroke or Fill color control, and select a color swatch. You can select gradients only for the fill color.

  • Click the System Color Picker button in the pop-up window, and select a color.

  • Type a color’s hexadecimal value in the box.

  • To return to the default color settings (white fill and black stroke), click the Black And White button in the Tools panel.

  • To remove any stroke or fill, click the No Color button.

    Note: The No Color button appears only when you are creating an oval or rectangle. You can create an object without a stroke or fill, but you cannot use the No Color button with an existing object. Instead, select the existing stroke or fill and delete it.
  • To Swap colors between the fill and the stroke, click the Swap Colors button in the Tools panel.
