This window has two tabs Standard, and Custom. The usual color window will open showing you the different shades and colors in the current color scheme.Ī new window will open with more colors but they will still be limited. Go to the Design tab, and click the Pen Color tool.
Once you’ve edited the table as much as you need to, click anywhere inside it so that the table editing tabs will appear on the ribbon. That way, you will be able to see if the color looks good or not. It’s a good idea to add data to the table before you customize the colors. If you need to use a custom color for table borders in Word, you can.
The color themes are great but they may not be great for every element or you might need to use a different color for a particular element that isn’t part of the theme.
They’re set automatically so that you only have to select the theme and the colors will be applied to the various elements of the document when you add them. A color theme in Word means that everything from headings, to tables and graphs will use the same set of colors.
