    Yeah, what mono said.
    Maybe look into setting up an action and/or assigning a shortcut.

    About 30 seconds spent setting up a very basic action and recoloring.

    • I don't really do actions in Illy, but could the recoloring be captured in the offset action?monospaced
    • Hmmmm... perhaps. I didn't really explore it. Maybe an action with offset, color, offset color. Then run as many times as needed and use the recolor dialog?duckseason
    • that's what I was thinking, yeahmonospaced
    • Yeah, it worked. Just made the text a compound shape before running to prevent each letter from acting as its own object and overlapping one another.duckseason
    • Compound path, rather.duckseason
    • Nice. Now j will avoid this thread because those images hurt my eyes.monospaced
