Robert,

When I choose the color for an object I select "Choose Color" from the  
Graphics menu. At the top of the small color chooser palette that open  
are 5 options: Color Wheel, Sliders, Palettes, Spectrum, and Crayons.  
Some of these have several sub-options such as grayscale, RGB, CMYK,  
HSB and so on. The color wheel works the same for me as it ever did.
