About color palettes

Each Flash file contains its own color palette, stored in the Flash document. Flash displays a file’s palette as swatches in the Fill Color and Stroke Color controls and in the Swatches panel. The default color palette is the web-safe palette of 216 colors. To add colors to the current color palette, use the Color panel.

You can import and export both solid and gradient color palettes between Flash files, as well as between Flash and other applications.
