jamesholden Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 2 questions really—I am finding the default palettes a little limited. So i. is there somewhere we can download a bunch of color palettes together and ii can they (the palettes) all be imported all in one go? I'm dreading the thought of creating all the palettes I need manually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies, Alfred is correct in his above post - this is not currently possible as Palette files must be imported individually.

firstdefence Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 There is a way... on Mac at least, If you can collect the palettes as .clr palettes (Apple Color Palette) you could drop all the palettes you want into the Colors folder: Users > Yourname > Library > Colors From there these palettes will show in the swatches panel as apple palettes which has the bonus of being available systemwide in any app that can use .clr palettes. jamesholden and Dan C 1 1 Quote iMac 27" 2019 Somona 14.3.1, iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...
