Applying Color with the Color Guide Panel
After you set up the Color Guide panel to display color variations the way you want, you
can now start applying colors to objects in your document. You can apply colors to an
object based on current colors in the object or use colors from other swatches. Illustrator
makes it easy to display and apply variations with Harmony Rules (sets of predefined col-
or schemes), such as Complementary, Analogous, Monochromatic, Shades, or High Con-
trast. If you want to save a customized set of variations, you can create a color group in
the Swatches panel for future use.
