"Colours" won't respond.

[Crocus]

Hi, how do you get your 'colours' to work? For some reason mine just won't "do as asked". Fonts work fine, Sizes work fine, but A won't respond when I click on the drop down little arrow.

You have tried selecting the text that you want to change colour, haven't you crocus?

[Primrose]

Mine will not either Crocus - have done it in the past - so know how to do it.

Same as photos - need to have a go again. xx

[Crocus]

Oh,does one need to type the text first and then change the colour? I didn't know that - thanks Jazz, will give it a go.xx

[Crocus]

Okay, I've tried with above text, but the arrow won't drop down to indicate the colours. Bit of a mistery to me. Thanks anyway.

Hi Primrose, regarding putting photos on, if you click on "Go Advanced" you will notice a paperclip next to FOnts, Sizes, etc. etc. Click on the paperclip and a window will open with "browse", "upload" etc. Click on "browse" and it will take you to where your photos are stored on your computer, usually in "My pictures". Select the pic, click on it, then click on "open" (bottom right) it will take you back to windown with "browse". Click on "upload". After pic has been oploaded, close the window. click on the paper clip. Just follow the instructions then.

Lets see if this works

It seems to work if you select the colour and then just start typing without moving the curser which seems to fall between the two words 'colour,and what the colour is' and I didn't move it.x

[Crocus]

Let's see if it worked......

[Crocus]

You know what I did ? I clicked "Go Advanced", then on the colour icon. That didn't work, but it worked now when I just clicked in Quick Reply. Thanks Kate!

I could only get the colours to work in quick reply, doesn't want to know in Go Advanced.

[Crocus]

Hi Gen, yes, me too. X

[souter girl]

This is fun - what colour shall we do next?

[Crocus]

Whatever takes your fancy SG, provided it's "available" of course .... X

Richard of York gained battles in vain - a good saying to remember the order as each word starts with the same letter as a colour
