Xara Webster - Changing the Color of Clipart Dividers
Most dividers in the Dividers sections of the Clipart Gallery
use two basic colors: Lite Color and Dark Color. After loading
a divider into Webster you can easily change these colors.
To change the basic colors
- Open the Color Gallery.
- Select the color you want to change.
- Click Edit on the Color Gallery. This opens the Color Editor.
- Use the Color Editor to make any color changes you want.
Lite color is currently white and you will not see it on a white background.
To make the gray shadow lighter or darker
The drop shadow is a separate group of objects within the divider.
- If necessary click the Selector Tool on the Toolbar to select
it.
- Click on the divider to select it.
- Ungroup it using Ungroup on the Arrange menu.
- Press ESC to deselect everything.
- Click on the drop shadow to select it. You may need to zoom
in to see the shadow clearly.
- Select the Transparency Tool.
- You can now drag the Transparency slider until the drop shadow
looks correct.

of changing the shadow:

on the left making it darker
on the right making it lighter
We suggest you now select the complete divider and regroup it.
You can then move the divider as a single object.
