How to Remove Custom Colors From Google Slides
Follow the steps below to delete custom colors in your Google Slides presentation.
1. Select the Object with the Custom Color
Click on the shape, text box, or any other object that uses the custom color you want to delete. This ensures you are working with the item that has the color applied. Go to the toolbar and click on the “Fill color” icon.
2. Open the Color Picker to View Custom Colors
After clicking the “Fill color” icon, a list of color options will appear. At the bottom, you’ll see a section labeled “Custom” where your saved custom colors are listed.
3. Remove the Custom Color
Hover over the custom color you want to delete from the “Custom” section. Right-click on the color and select “Transparent.” This will delete the custom color from your list, and it won’t appear in future options.
4. Verify the Custom Color is Gone
Once the color is removed, double-check the “Fill color” options. You’ll notice the custom color no longer appears, confirming it has been successfully deleted.
5. Continue Editing Without the Deleted Color
Now that the custom color is gone, you can continue editing your slides using the remaining colors. If you want, you can add new custom colors later.
