- You probably have found it already - you have to open up the scrolling

- There is a bug in the drag and drop for the scheme palette - dragging
- the scheme to a folder or the desktop will not change the shadow text
- colour. However, ALT-dragging the scheme to the desktop will work,
- although it will change the shadow text colour (and everything else) in
- ALL folders, not just the desktop (that's what ALT-drag is supposed to
- do). You will also have to drag the scheme to folders for which you
- have explicitly changed the colours. It seems global changes do not
- override previously set individual changes.
