Using the Document palette, Color
Styles palette, and Image palette
When you start a new document in
CorelDRAW, the Document palette appears.
When you start a new image in
Corel PHOTO-PAINT, the Image palette
appears. These palettes are empty palettes that
let you keep track of the colors that you use. By
default, they appear docked at the bottom of
the application window. The Color styles
palette is another palette that is created
automatically in CorelDRAW when you start a
new document, but it is not open by default. It
helps you keep track of the color styles that you
create.

Styles, or Image palette
Whenever you add a color to your document,
the color is automatically added to the
Document palette or Image palette.
Whenever you create a color style in your
document, it is added to the Color styles
palette, but it does not automatically appear in
the Document palette. You can add the color
style to the Document palette by applying it
to an object in your document, or by manually
dragging it from the Color styles docker or
the Color styles palette to the Document
palette.To add a color or color style to the
Document palette in CorelDRAW, select

the Document, Color styles, or Image
palette by using the eyedropper button.To add multiple colors to the Image
palette in Corel PHOTO-PAINT, click the
