Greetings,

The instructions in the FM user guide are either totally inaccurate, or FM is broken out of the box.

To determine which, I need to know how some one of you add a simple color to the common colors palette.

The guide says View > Color > Definitions. Define your color. Click the Add button. Nothing happens, either to the selected object (hell, I just want to color a line folks), or to the palette. It is apparently "added" to outer space.

I am NOT trying to do anything complicated here. There is NOTHING fancy about what I am trying to do -- no conditional anything, no complicated print considerations, nothing. The end document is a PDF.

So, someone please tell me how can I create a color which will appear in the color palette so I can apply it to a line or whatever, and use it over again as needed.

Many thanks.

stevenjs
