    Default Changing a color globally and palettes

    Hello,

    It's been a while since I used Xara and I have two questions and I'd appreciate some help:

    1.- How can I modify globally the color of all objects of certain color without having to select the objects? for example everything that is red I want it now pink ...
    2.- How do I customize the standard palette that is at the bottom of the screen or at least add my own colors for later use

    Thank you!

    Palosanto, here is how I create palettes: https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...-Theme-Colours.

    For a Global Red change, open then Names gallery > Used Colours, pick Red.
    All Red objects are selected.
    Drag a Pink colour from the Colour Bar onto one of the selection.
    This covers the case when you do not have any Named Colours.

    Gary, not for selecting objects but to add the colors to the bottom palette similar to Egg's second video. "Palette from photo" doesn't work for xara objects ...
    I suppose I could make a bitmap of the design first and then make the palette with it? Is this the way? Thanks
