TOPIC

    I am using AppleWorks and find that when I click the Fill color palette and move the pointer across the palette, a strange black outline appears around each color swatch that my pointer touches. I end up with a palette that has a black outline around several color swatches. Can you help?

DISCUSSION

    To work around this anomaly, use one of these two other methods for working with palettes:

    • Click and hold the mouse button down continuously to open a palette and choose a palette item. Release the mouse button when the pointer is over the desired palette item.
    • Tear the palette off, then choose an item from the palette window.

    Other palettes will have similar symptoms. For example, by clicking the Arrows palette and then moving the pointer across mulitple arrow styles, you will be left with the impression that you have muliple items checked. In reality, only one item is actually checked. Using one of the methods listed above should make the palette behave properly.
