The colors added to the "Custom Colors" can be redefined and used as long as Adobe Flash application remains opened. When you close the Flash application, the Custom colors will be deleted.

Add and save new colors in the Color Palette

You can also create and save new colors, so you can reuse them again without having to try to recreate them.
Flash allows you to create and save new colors for strokes and fills in several ways in the Color panel. You can edit a color's RGB values (assigning it different levels of Red, Green or Blue), HSB values (assigning it different Hue, Saturation, Brightness), and Alpha (transparency).
To create and save a custom color swatch, follow these steps:

1. Click Window menu -> Color. This will open the Color panel with options to create custom color, by using HSB, RGB, Alpha and hexadecimal code (see the image below):
   
2. Click a color from the Color window, or from "Stroke Color", or "Fill Color" icons in Color Panel.
3. Click a RGB or HSB option, and then adjust the color RGB value (between 0 and 255) or HSB percentage (between 0 and 100). To make the color with transparency, enter an alpha value (between 0 and 100).
   - You can also specify a color using a hexadecimal number in the field with the '#' sign.
4. Click the Options button in the panel (top-right corner), and then click Add Swatch. Your color is automatically added in the Swatches panel, under the other 216 colors (next to Gradient colors).
   - If you select Bitmap fill from the option list (where "solid color" is), you can add / import a picture to be used as a color.
5. Click Window -> Swatches, it will open the Swatches panel, with the new swatch at the bottom of the list next to the gradients, as shown in the image below.
