Hi Clare,

Personally I use the colour selector. On a PC, left clicking selects a foreground colour, right clicking selects a background colour.

Another tip to try (doesn't work in all versions) is to hold down Control and click somewhere on your image. The colour should be copied to your current palette, depending on which mouse button you click.

PS. here is a link to some shortcut keys.

Hope this helps.

Regards, Rich

Microsoft office tip:

Short cut tips

Instead of jsut seeing the default setting of screentip names, when you place the mouse pointer over the toolbar, you can also see the keyboard short cut for accessing the button as well.

To this click on Tools, Customise, options tab.

Under Other you will see the option of Show shortkeys in screentip
