RE: Colour
Hi Mel
Thanks for your question.
You should be able to right-click on the shape and select Format - Fill from the menu.
Use the dropdown arrow under Pattern and select one of the samples where you can see graduated colour (number 25 onwards).
Then use the dropdown arrow under Pattern colour to choose a different colour.
I hope this answers your question. If not, please post another question and we'll be happy to help.
