In MSPublisher, there was a feature called "recolor". There were also color samples, sort of like pallotts that had sets of colors together -- sets like, what would look good with what. Anything like this in Quark?
 
Sorry, no.
It's a professional tool ;)

I'll give you a tip for choosing colours though.
But you need Photoshop or similar to do it.

Find an image you like. Anything will do, something that feels right colourwise.

Go to Filters->Mosaic and set a high number.

You should get a load of squares using the base colours of the image. Generally they look good together. Ready made colour pallete :)

what do you mean "it's a professional tool"? Quark, or the fact that MSPublisher had recolor?
 
I meant Quark doesn't have pre-defined colour sets.

You can, however create a colour, use it to colour elements then change the way that colour looks and it will be reflected in the elements.. if that's what you meant.
