This is the third global colors issue I reported just today. While the other two could be considered kind of niche or harder to spot, this one is dead obvious. You guys really, really, really need to spend a whole version just tearing down the Swatches panel and rebuilding it in a way that's user friendly and that actually works well in all situations.
Select an object. On the Swatches panel press the add current color as global color. That's it, that's all it takes to reproduce. 🤨
You'd obviously expect the object to have the newly created global swatch applied. It doesn't. You need to actually click on the newly created swatch for it to be applied to the object...
Attached is a video reproducing the issue. Really consider spending 100% of the time for version 1.9 rebuilding the Swatches panel. Managing colors is a fundamental part of well done graphic design, guessing if our swatches will work on a given situation is not acceptable.
Thanks!
