Under those two icons there are three more. The first icon allows you to apply single colours to objects, the second one allows you to apply gradients and the third one applies "no colour", i.e., if you had already applied colours to an object and then you click the on this icon, you will be taking the colour away.
The very bottom icons of the Tools palette allows you to view your document in several ways. We will take those up later, right now stick to the Normal View Mode.
