Use the Text Editor to create and edit text. Unlike text in
many other applications, Fireworks text is always
editable all the time. Edit text quickly and easily after
custom effects have been applied.
To choose a color in the Text Editor, you need not access
the Swatches panel. Just click the pop-up to the right of
the color well to access all the swatches in the current
color palette. Then click to pick a color from the pop-up
set of color swatches.
