Perhaps by now you have discovered that Fireworks retains the stroke and fill of the last object you created and uses those settings until you change them. This is a great feature, especially when you are adding multiple objects. Fireworks also has a set of default fill and stroke colors. The default fill color is white, and the default stroke color is black. You can easily change these colors to suit your needs. To change the default colors, choose Edit > Preferences (PC) or Fireworks > Preferences (Mac). On the General tab of the Preferences dialog box, click the Stroke or Fill color box and pick a new default color.
The last thing you created was the rectangle with the gray fill and the Piano Keys texture. If you draw another rectangle, it will have the same stroke and fill. In the next exercise, you will draw a square, but it needs to be filled with white. You could draw the square and then change the fill color, but to save a step, you will apply the default colors before you draw the new object.
