Global swatches not following when objects are posted into new documents


Recommended Posts

I paste a logo with global swatches (Corporate colours that must never ever change) and the swatches don't follow into the new document. The global swatch is there "sort of" because the colour palette says my object's fill is a global swatch and I can even edit it, but I can never apply it to another object because it's not in the swatches palette anywhere.

Major fail...

Here's a screenshot showing the global colour in use, but no document palette or global swatches in my swatches palette.

Hi Stephen_H,
Unfortunately the current design only limits Global Colours to be document based. Unfortunately you'll have to use an Application Palette and regular swatches. I do agree, that if you are pasting one from another document it would be nice if it did then pop up in a document palette, so I will get that passed on to development.

Thanks.

BTW, I've picked up a very strange bug that converts a global swatch to the wrong colour. I've made a video demonstrating it. I'll open a new topic for it since it's quite broad covering a few colour issues that are preventing me from working confidently.
