The next step is choosing a color for your font. You can
do this by specifying the color CSS property. You can
either type in a hexadecimal color manually into the "color:" textbox or
you can click on the color picker icon
(
)
next to the textbox to bring up the color picker dialog. The color picker
dialog is explained in detail in the Color Picker Dialog
section of the manual. Basically I have tried to make the color picker
extremely easy to use and allow you to try out a wide variety of colors
in a very short amount of time. All you have to do is move your mouse
over a color spectrum and the color which your mouse pointer is
currently over will be the color that your text is updated with. To
choose a color, you simply click on the color spectrum on the color
that you want. That "locks in" your color choice. If you would like to
choose a different color simply click on the color spectrum a second
time. That "unlocks" your color selection and allows you to choose a
different color. I should also point out that the "Hex:" textbox in the
color picker dialog is fully editable and will update the color in
real-time as you change it. You can also press the Up and Down arrow
keys to increase or decrease your color's value as well.
