LCamachoDesign Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 If you make a copy of a global color the new color will have the exact same name as the original. This causes all sorts of problems since no two swatches should have the same name. Steps to reproduce: Create a new global color in the Swatches panel, notice the name Right click it and choose Make Copy Check the name of the new global color, it's the exact same as the original Strangely, this does not happen to regular colors. If you make a copy of a regular color the app will always change the copy's name. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted January 5, 2020 Staff Share Posted January 5, 2020 Hi LCamachoDesign, This is now fixed in all app's Customer Betas 1.8 both on macOS and Windows - it should now add a suffix with an (increasing) number as you create duplicates. Thanks for your report. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
