Like I start many questions, I've done this a million times in x4 but not in x7. It should be EASY! I use to do aa lot of banner borders and change colors multiple times. Now I only figured out a color and white. To do attached I SHOULD HAVE been able to do it as ONE rectangle, but ended up doing it as FIVE ! Other questions I'm generally not embarassed, but this one I am. I tried changing colors, but the entire thing would change colors. I clicked on the little trianges in Object Properties>Fill, and that didn't work either. [:$]
Hi Inj,
I don't remember X4 any more. However, it seems that you are not using the Interactive Fill tool.
If so, then look up the Interactive Fill (aka gradient) tool in HELP. It's just about identical in DRAW.
You just drag markers to the tool from a palette. Then double click on a marker to change its color. Phil
Here's a file for you to play with. Select the rectangle on the right (left is your bitmap). Select the InterActive Gradient Tool Phil mentions. It is in the Toolbox towards the bottom (at least ina default install I think it is).
Opening the Object Properties and switching to the Fill section, you should see something like the following:

Argh. Forgot the file:
dierks.cdr
When you wake up, read the description in Photopaint's HELP. It's easier to follow than the one in DRAW.
The Interactive Fill (aka gradient tool) is a gift from heaven. It's one of two reasons that I use Photopaint instead of Photoshop.
Here's a screen shot from DRAW.Phil
