Selecting colors
To select colors in tools and effects that provide a color parameter, click either on the color swatch (left) or the eye dropper button. The first opens a standard color picker dialog; while the second lets you choose a color by clicking anywhere on the screen.
Two ways to set colors: The Windows color picker dialog (L) opens when you click the color swatch button provided in some tools and effects. Click the eye-dropper button to select a color from the Player preview window or elsewhere using a mouse pointer in the form of an eye-dropper (R).
