There just does not seem to be an easy way to bring a custom plan colour back into the chart when it is transparent. Yes Mark's Sticky notes would work but a little cumbersome in my opinion. I am working with a plan that has several gradations of a transparent colour and it would be nice to be able to reimport them into the Custom Colour chart for editing purposes and transfer around the plan. The weakness is that the custom colours are not saved when you need to revise a colour scheme. Glenn, With Michael's and Mark's suggestions most of the standard situations are covered and can be made to function ok.

If anyone has come up with easier solutions or how to add from eye dropper, please let me know.
It seems like more work than it should be but I quite often use the Custom Colour chooser to transfer custom colours in plan view from one area or object to another. Found a partial fix already by adding a stock or custom colour then duplicating it by pressing add again, then select it and edit and re save. Ok sometimes it helps just to write out the question. There are 16 boxes.Īre other software programs that use the same Colour Selector the same as this?
Unless you make your custom colour from scratch by selecting a box ahead of time you can only put one colour into the chart at a time and any new colour deletes the previously saved colour. This seems to be something I always want to include in my colourful workflow but can't get it to work. I seem to be finding the Custom colours chart in the colour chooser rather unfriendly when wanting to add colours that have been chosen with the eye dropper or modified from an existing custom colour in the chart.
