I have been working through one of the sparkfun turorials (Lecture 9 - Eagle: PCB Layout). It talks about changing the tdocu (51) from a gray color to yellow. I tried this (becasue I thought the gray sucked) and have found that I do not have a yellow and only have the first two rows of color chips available. Anyone have an idea why this is? I am currently using Windoze 7 and EAGLE 5.11.0 Professional version.

thanks for any help

There are only two rows available by default, the rest are for custom colours.
You should have yellow though, second from the right, second row...

Actually your right it is there but it just didnt look like yellow from the block. With this info in mind I also tried and found the white. Again it doesnt look like white on the block... go figure.

Do you know how to add custom colors?

by the way thanks for the prompt reply..

Do you know how to add custom colors?

Go to the options menu, select "SET", find the "Colors" panel (should be the one that pops up first), and click the "palette" column/row where you want to change colors.
