I created a color swatch in Designer and created the same swatch in other applications e.g. MS Office and Adobe Illustrator (e.g. to share with others, and for templates). To my big surprise the color in Designer swatches are different compared to Microsoft Office and Adobe Illustrator. An example is shown below for the color swatch RGB value (228,216,179). In Designer the color has a pink/salmon hue, whereas in e.g. Adobe it is a light shade of beige. The latter should be the color close to the color I eye dropped from a photograph. Note that Designer uses the same color profile, sRGB IEC61966-2.1 as e.g. Adobe Illustrator. I use the same monitor to display color for all applications concerned. I am not sure if this is a bug or whether I forgot some (color) setting, but some advice is appreciated on how to achieve a common color swatch among applications. Cheers, Dave

Hi, In (CMYK mode) colour dialog, when I highlight say first input box "C" to enter value and Tab through other input boxes for M, Y & K, it is not possible to enter values straight away. Each input box needs to be manually highlighted to enter values. Takes some time out. While tabbing through input boxes, the text in input box must be automatically highlighted to accept new values. This applies to almost all input boxes I guess, like Transform etc
