Where Can The Color Picker Be Found?
To find the color picker, double-click either the fill icon or the stroke icon. The fill and stroke icons can be found in the Tools panel, and they can be used to open the color picker. Go ahead to use the RGB, LAB, or CMYK fields to define the color. Now click the Add swatch button to add your desired color to the Swatches. Finally, click ok to close the Color picker.

The Swatches panel is the main gateway to the color settings for fonts in InDesign. In the Swatches panel, you can customize your text’s fill color and stroke color. This allows for a wide range of creative designs, including the application of complex color gradients.
Designers often use swatch panels and Stroke panels interchangeably to create unique character sets for the projects they want to publish. The Swatches panel allows for extensive color editing opportunities, while the stroke panels are made to help users customize the weight of the stroke being used on the font.
