SYMPTOMS
You cannot change the shadow color in Microsoft Organization Chart from
within the Organization Chart program.
CAUSE
Organization Chart 2.0 uses it's own shadow color of black, and does not
follow the PowerPoint slide color scheme. This shadow color cannot be
modified in Organization Chart 2.0, nor can it be modified by changing the
slide color scheme in PowerPoint.
WORKAROUND
To change the shadow color of the Organization Chart, you must ungroup the
Organization Chart object, select each shadow box object, and change the
color by clicking Colors And Lines on the Format menu.
NOTE: Once the Organization Chart has been ungrouped, it becomes a series
of PowerPoint shapes, and can no longer be modified or changed in
Organization Chart.
