Hello. In my projects I find it helpful to create a pallet of color
samples I chose to use. I can then refer to their RGB's or dip my
format painter into one for quick color changes. This goes beyond
Color Schemes because I need more custom colors than it offers, and I
want them to not change. (Color scheme keeps a rolling sample plus a
handful of presents.) Since the early versions of PPT, I've just made
colored boxes on a hidden slide to achieve this. I still use this
technique today and it's fine.
But now I want to make such a color pallet available in my template to
my users who won't be savvy to the box method. I'd like to make a
color swatch pallet like what's in PhotoShop for example. I don't
think there is a way to do this in the native controls.
If I have to use VBA to do this, is there any code out there where
someone already did it so I don't have to re-invent the wheel? <g>
Thank you,
Melina
