Creating new area fills
The following sections describe how to create new fills and how to
apply them.
Althugh you can change the characteristics of an existing fill and then
click the Modify button, it is recommended that you create new fills or
modify custom fills rather than the predefined ones, as these may be
reset when updating OpenOffice.org.
Adding custom colors
On the Colors page, shown in Figure 104, you can modify existing
colors or create your own.
Figure 104: A custom color has been added to the list
You can specify a new color either as a combination of the three
primary colors Red, Green, and Blue, (hence the notation RGB) or by
the percentage of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black (CMYK notation).
To create a new color:
1) Enter the name for the color in the Name box.
2) Select whether to define the color in RGB or CMYK. For RGB
Specify the red, green and blue component on a 0 to 255 scale.
For CMYK specify the Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and black (K)
components, from 0% to 100%.
3) Click the Add button. The color is now added to the list on the
Area page.
