firstdefence Posted March 16, 2024 Posted March 16, 2024 The stroke panel doesn't feel complete without colour input. To be honest I think the Stroke and Appearance panel could be merged.

I'm sorry to say that I think this is not a Good Idea™ because often you would want to see all stroke parameters laid out upfront, not buried under popover panels. Also, the Appearance functionality is a Designer exclusive, whereas the Stroke panel alone is just as important in Publisher for fine adjusting text outline attributes. Then, Color parameters have so many different variants that you would have to literally merge the whole Color panel into the Stroke panel. Whenever you want to apply color to strokes, you always have the color panel flyout handy on the context toolbar. And lastly, I, for one, hope that the Stroke panel will eventually gain more functions. Those will need the currently free real estate.
