THANK YOU! I assumed this is how it was done, and had done it, but it wasn't working. I was very frustrated. After watching your video, I realized I had a character style selected as well as a paragraph style (with nested styles). As soon as I set the character style to "none", viola! It worked! Thank you so much! I also learned to make sure a space doesn't count as a color, I used "letter" not "character". It worked beautifully!
I noticed on another one of your videos that I didn't see color themes under your window tab either. I was following a illustrator course and had to stop because I didn't have adobe color theme even though i was signed into creative. Do you know how to get that? I'm learning so thAt I can use my drawing skills in the same way
You likely need to change your Workspace, which will then show you different things in the default menu set-up. If you still can't find it, search for that panel dock under Window.
