Indesign Color Theme Tool bar won't go away.

I have a quick question about the Color Theme Tool bar. I accidently clicked it and now it is on my screen forever and I can't get it off. Is there any way to get it off my screen?

    Correct answer Steve Werner

    The two standard ways to dismiss the floating tool bar for the Color Theme tool: (1) Press the Escape tool closes it so you could choose another sample. (2) Choosing another tool (like the Selection tool) temporarily hides it but will reappear if you choose the Color Theme tool again.

     

    If that doesn't work, I'd quit out of InDesign.

    You can just close the indesign completly and then restart indesign.  Now you can not see the color theme tool again.

    If you bring another window on top of the indesign window and then get back to indesign, the color theme bar goes away. It might be a refresh issue. Esc does not work.

      Thanks so much! Just pressing the escape tool got it off the screen!
