color pallette no longer works, only half of it

[jyarddog]

I must have accidently hit something and changed things.

text- learning center says- choose color from foreground pallette. Choose color from background pallette.

type your text....etc.

My foregorund pallette is X'd out (i.e. a circle with a slash through it).
I have this also when trying todraw a poly like a circle or rectangle.

Also background eraser does not erase fully anymore. Bob

Underneath your Foreground and Background color boxes there are 3 buttons across. Hitting the right most button gives transparency (circle with line through it). The left most button on each controls the colour , gradient or pattern. Clicking on the top of those three will give you a solid color.

More details on the Background Eraser problem please. Settings , what you are trying to do, what version of paintshop pro you are using.
