1. Re: How to color halftone symbols
JETalmage Feb 2, 2009 10:30 PM (in response to CathyInMichigan)Explain the situation more.
What is a "haftone symbol"? Just a circle?
What do you mean by "each one"? Each Symbol in your Libary, or each instance on the page? If you're talking about coloring individual Instances, what is different about the several Symbols in the libary?
Are you familiar with the Symbol Stainer?
Are you familiar with the Replace Symbol command?
How many different colors are you dealing with? Is there some reason you can't include different-colored dots in the Symbol Library?
I have several Javascripts that let you replace and/or recolor objects randomly. But a better explanation of what you are trying to do is needed.

2. Re: How to color halftone symbols
CathyInMichigan Feb 3, 2009 1:29 PM (in response to CathyInMichigan)I guess my problem really is that I do not know what to do with halftone symbols! I can recolor, stain, replace etc. other symbols...just not the halftone ones. Maybe they are used for a different purpose. Nor can I figure out how to color a symbol that is B/W. Clearly, there's some aspect of the color properties that I don't understand. I'm very willing to read Help files or tutorials if you could suggest a topic. Thanks! -

JETalmage Feb 3, 2009 3:37 PM (in response to CathyInMichigan)I'd love to help. But as explained, you're first going to have to answer some of my questions. I still don't know what you are referring to as a "halftone symbol."
