Set Outline Default
Click desired default outline color with right mouse button. The Outline
Color dialog box will appear warning you that nothing is selected and
the default will be changed. Changing the default means that every time
you create a new object, this outline will be applied. Choose which items
you would like the new default to affect. Normally, text objects do not
have outlines so will not be selected. Graphics is the usual choice for
applying a default outline.

box will appear warning you that nothing is selected and the default will
be changed. Choose which items you would like the new default to affect.
You can choose any or all to have this fill applied. Check Graphics and
Artistic Text for this sample. New Graphics and Artistic Type objects
will be automatically filled with this color. Paragraph text will maintain
the original default.
