Items that are new to you are likely to be in the Appearance section, where you can specify
a color for the shape fill, stroke (a colored line on the edges of a shape or text), and shadow
(see “Text styles” later in this lesson for more information about these).
Perhaps these color swatches are already familiar to you. They work in an intuitive way.
- Click the Fill color swatch.
A color picker appears that allows you to choose a precise color. There are a number of
color systems to choose between, or you can move your pointer over a sample of the color
you want and click to select it directly.
