Hi, I just want to be able to insert a tick where I can change the colour, I have tried inserting as a glyph or symbol but cant see an option to change the colour. Please help.

Correct answer Steve Werner

Here is some text and a glyph I chose from the Glyphs panel (Type > Glyphs):

 

Open the Swatches panel. Select your glyph with the Type tool:

 

Apply any color to the glyph with the Type tool and the Swatches panel.

Thanks. Some glyphs it works on and some it doesnt. Ie, with some ticks it will change all the colour and others it will only change coloour of the outline.
