Edit Color Palette Names
 

I am customizing a color palette with 22 new colors to match our company's
printing color palette. When opening the standard color palette to use it,
you can hover over a color to display the color's name. (ie: "Dark Teal")
However, after I've customized a color, the hover name defaults to "color
scheme". Is there a way for me to edit "color scheme" to be my color name
for each of the colors I've created?

There is no way to access or change the color pallet names. They
are hard coded into Excel.

Thanks for the info, Chip. I was afraid that would be the answer.
How unfortunate. MS should really look at allowing for edited color names
if they are going to allow people to edit the color palette!
