If you have a color monitor, try changing the colors. You can do this on
a black and white monitor, but it's not as fun.
Under the View menu at the top of the screen, select
Colors.
You get the
Colors window.
Push a colored button, and you will reach the palette.
Experiment with the palette to change colors.
Recall our introductory discussion of angles between mirrors. You can
define new angles between the mirrors generating the displayed object by:

- Change the values in the More Symmetry Groups window.
- The warning in the window should be taken seriously. Using values
like ¼ / 7 or ¼ / 8 could mean your computer will lock up.
- Press the Set button to see what happens
