Hi Naomi, No, to modify the Draw features, you have to open the styles while in the Draw program. When in there, you will see the styles (only one set) and you can modify the "Default" style by right-clicking on the name and then Modify. The Default style is used for any object that you draw. For example, the situation to change the fill colour from Blue 8 to Red 6 say, you modify the Default style in Draw, choose the "Area" tab, and set the colour to Red 6. Follow through to save as default template as described earlier. Now when you open a new Draw document, you will have a default fill of Red 6. Did I explain that enough?
