Question: How do I change background and needle default colors in EO Edit?

1. Click on the Palette icon on the tool bar
2. This will open up the Color Palette box.
3. Click on the Background button located in the lower left of the box. (see screen capture)

1. Click in the Color Mixing area, somewhere close to the color you want for the back ground color.
2. Adjust the sliding pointer to the left of the Color Mixing area up or down to fine tune the color. Notice the sample box above the Cancel button. It will change as you adjust the color.
3. You can also change the needle colors in the same manner. Just click on the needle number you wish to change and make the same adjustments as you did for the background.
4. Once you have made all your changes, you can save the changes as the default palette by clicking on the icon that looks like the palette icon with a padlock on it. This will ask you if you want to save the current palette as the default. Click YES to save it.
5. If you do not wish to save the palette as the default, simply click OK to close the box and apply the changes. This palette will be saved with the design and reload when you open the design again in the future.
6. If you do not save the palette as the default, the colors will revert to the install defaults next time you open or create a new design.
