franco Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 The Grays, Colors and Gradients swatches palette are empty. By choosing to Export one of these palettes, Publisher crashes. With or without an open document in the editing window, the problem is the same. All other color Palettes work well.

franco Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 In version .317 the Gradients swatches palette is displayed and I can export it. On the other hand, Grays and Colors are still empty and Publisher crashes if I try to export them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franco Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 Thomaso, you are right, Swatches are normally displayed when Publisher is in English. If I set the application in English (United States) or French, the Swatches are missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neat, I tried that and lost the Swatches and had Unknown for a language choice in Auto correct and filler text instead of my system's previous preference for English (Canada). Should point out that the language choice is from the General section of the application's Preferences.

Do you remember whether it has shown any language before your app language pref switch? (mine was "None", too.) Also in English app language on German OS: – I am not allowed to alter the spelling language in Character Style panel from "Deutsch" to "None" or "English", as long there is no object selected: regardless what I select in the pull-down menu, it always jumps back to "Deutsch". – Whereas I have free choice with a text frame selected any new text frame is set to "None", regardless what language I used in the recently selected frame. It seems to force me to assign a language for every text frame – instead of keeping the last choice. Quote English swatches empty in ...

The only language I have chosen in my OS is English with the region being Canada so I get English (Canada) as my Primary (and only) choice.
