Hi, I noticed a slight modification with the new beta. Earlier, when adding a Pantone as global colour, we had to option to modify the swatch name ("global colour x") and modify the global colour name ("Pantone 123 C"). Now, we can only modify the global colour name (that's better!), but the name is "global colour x" instead of "Pantone 123 C". There's no reason to have global colours named as "global colour x" when using nomenclatured colours as "Pantone 123 C". And it's the same with any colour, in fact: the white triangle in the corner of the swatch is enough since the swatches are always visible in the palette, they should be name depending of colour values, unless we want to add "global" in the name, but this is a choice we should make. For now, we have to add first the colour to the palette, and second to make it global if we want to keep the name, or add it global and rename it. It should be one in one step only.

Why is it that when one applies and adds a Pantone spot color to an object in one's document, that the swatch for the Pantone spot color in the Swatches panel is labeled generically "Global Color X" by default, rather than being labeled by the actual corresponding Pantone spot color number? (See attached screen grab.) If we're wanting to manage inks, including spot inks, within our documents, swatch collections, and files sent to offset print services, shouldn't the Affinity software correctly label color Pantone color swatches by default as they are added to the document Swatches panel?
