Applying color

“

- [Instructor] Adobe InDesign allows you to apply color to a fill and/or stroke of objects in a document. Click on the Selection tool in the Tools panel to make it active and then click on the large rectangle on the left pane to select it. In the Properties panel, click on the Fill indicator and choose the dark blue swatch at the bottom of the list to apply to the object. Click on the large rectangle in the middle pane and in the Properties panel change the fill to the light gray swatch at the bottom of the list. Note that this swatch has a tint percentage value of 25%. Select the small rectangle at the top of the left pane and in the fill properties of the Properties panel, click on the light gray swatch at the bottom once again. Change the target to the stroke in the Properties panel and apply the medium gray swatch to the stroke of the object.
