If you add new palettes to your movie from other graphics applications, those palettes appear in the palette list and
in the Cast window.
The row of buttons on the right side of the Color Palettes window are for reserving, selecting, and rearranging colors
in the current palette. If you attempt to change one of the nine built-in palettes, Director creates a copy of the palette
for you to modify.
Note: Selecting a new palette in the Color Palettes window doesn't change the palette for the movie or any frame in the
movie. Use the Movie tab in the Property inspector to select the movie color palette, or select Modify > Frame Palette to
change the color palette at a particular frame.
When you modify a palette, all the cast members using the palette also change, so be sure to retain a copy of the
original palette.
