Illustrator :: Can't Convert Spot Colors To CMYK In Swatches Panel

Sep 17, 2013

I'm having an issue where I can't convert spot colors to CMYK in the swatches panel. Currently to fix I have to copy elements using the spot colors in to a new blank document, then convert them, then paste back into the original document.
 
Also if I try to delete the spot color, it doesn't fully delete the swatch.
 
I'm using Illustrator CC 17.0.0
 
I've attached a video [URL] ......

Illustrator :: Change Swatches From CMYK To RGB?

Jun 25, 2013

Okay so I've just realised that my documents are CMYK and have changed the settings to RGB (File > Document color mode > RGB and from the colour fly out menu) although I notice that when I hover my mouse over the colors in the swatches panel that it shows me the CMYK values.

Illustrator :: Can Change Swatches With Arrow Keys?

May 16, 2012

I use the Live Paint option and the Live Paint bucket often.  It is really convenient to change the swatch I am using by using the left-right arrow keys to change my swatch chosen in the Swatch Palette.  But in CS6, if I am doing so, and the next swatch chosen is a percentage tint of another color (for example, I have a swatch Blue, and a swatch Blue 85%, which is the Blue Swatch tinited to 85% in the color palette and then made into a saved swatch), the "select" box around the swatch disappears, and I can no longer change the swatch choice without re-clicking on it.
 
I can change easily between swatches that are not percentages of the original, with no problem.  CS5 and all earlier versions that had this feature had no problem whatsoever.

Illustrator :: Unused Deleted Swatches Come Back After Deleting / Clicking Add Used Swatches

Jul 12, 2013

I am proficient in Illustrator, but this has been one of a few enigmas. Every once and a while in a file, I have noticed that after deleting a color that is definitely not in use(ie there are no strokes, fills, stray paths etc) using these colors. I have made sure of it. I will delete the color from the swatches and as a final pass I like to add used colors and sure enough that color will come back. I tried making sure it's not checked global, didn't work, some I don't even think are global colors, and in fact they are generally CMYK. I often notice that Black and C:0 M:0 Y:0 K:100 don't like to delete from the swatches among some other colors when you delete unused swatches. I thought perhaps they were in guides or something but it's truly unexplainable, and generally with a fresh file if all colors are deleted it'll still leave black white and gray.

Or ways to troubleshoot better other than creating a debug file and deleting lines of code as recommended in the older forums?

Illustrator :: Any Way To Turn On Proof Colors And Overprint Preview By Default?

Jan 5, 2013

I prepare graphics mostly for print, so I like to turn on the Proof Colors view and Overprint Preview views. It's a pain to turn these on for each document. Is there a way to make these the default viewing settings in Illustrator CS6?
 
I tried creating an action to do it, but the Insert Menu Item command in actions causes Illustrator to crash every time, and the help file seems to say that View commands are unavailable to actions. So I'm not sure if that's a bug. Oddly, Photoshop has the very useful File> Scripts> Script Event Manager that let's me turn on Proof Colors (via an action) whenever a document is opened. It works very well. However, Illustrator does not appear to have these options. I found the View> New View options in Illustrator. They let me create a view that turns on Overprint Preview, but absolutely refuse to turn on Proof Colors. So it's the same number of clicks and pointless.

Illustrator CS6, v. 16.0.3 64-bit, Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

Photoshop :: Changing Colors Brings Up New Dialog With Swatches

Sep 17, 2012

For some reason, when I try to change colors anywhere (it could be the color of text, or the main foreground color) a dialog with swatches appears instead of the eyedropper tool I'm used to using in this scenario. I can't click on anything else in the screen except the options in this annoying swatches dialog.
 
It looks like this :

As this dialog won't tell me what the hexadecimal color values are (even when I click "Define Custom Colors"). As of right now, the project I was working on is stalled until I figure out how to make this thing go away and let me use the eyedropper tool to change the color of something.
 
This problem is new. I had my CS4 running since it came out and it never did this before.

Photoshop :: How To Make Limited Number Of Colors Swatches Fill The Panel

Nov 17, 2011

I have been using Adobe since CS3, now using CS5. Why is there still no way to have the color swatches FILL the panel.

I rarely use more than, say, 8 to 12 colors in a document. Why can't I set the Adobe products (I mostly use Ps, Id, and Il) so that the swatches panel has no blank space. I would like to have the colors will fill the entire space with LARGER tiles/icons. I find it very frustrating to have to click on a micro-sized square to pick a color. Or, try to discern small changes in the shade between 2 colors by squinting at such a small sample (again micro-sized square).

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Default Fill And Outline Colors Automatically Set To Last Colors Used

Apr 3, 2012

CDX5: Whatever color I select for fill or outline is now set as the default color for fills and outlines without expressly setting it as such. Until now when I left or right click a color with nothing selected it allowed me to set it as a default fill or outline color for graphics, artistic text, or paragraph text. It does not do that now.

Is this a "feature" that's been added that I somehow enabled? In any event, how do I turn it off?

Illustrator :: Action To Change Specific Colors?

Oct 23, 2013

I'm trying to create an action to change two specific colors in ~300 different logo files (.ai and .eps). I'm coming from Photoshop so I assume there is a way to create a droplet from an Illustrator Action but that's a different topic.
 
The colors are Pantone 143 and 287 which need to be changed to 143 U and 287 U, respectively.
 
Here are the steps that I think I need to record for my action: Unlock all layersAdd new colors to swatch boardSelect all layersRecolor Artwork... (Edit -> Edit Colors -> Recolor Artwork... This step is not recorded?)Save file The problem is that the Recolor Artwork step is not recorded.

Illustrator :: Colors Change In Objects In Both RGB And CMYK Formats

Apr 26, 2013

I've recently upgraded to CS6 and also to OS 10.8...  Im working in multiple Illustrator docs using a color of 100-87-32-32. When I change objects to that color by keying it in to the color pallete, it changes. If I click off, go away and come back the color shifts to 100-82-36-29 or something similar.
 
Some objects retain and others shift. What gives?

Illustrator :: How To Change Colors Of Different Shapes At Same Time In Assign Tab

Sep 30, 2012

Under the edit tab I can click on the link option and change the colors together at the same time, though this does not work when on the Assign tab.
 
1. Is there a way to get it to change the colors of different shapes at the same time in the Assign tab?

2. The blue circle in the color wheel is clearly changing the hue of the blue, though with the other two arms, the circle with the black ring around it, when I drag it to darker hues it changes both the star and the polygon while the other circle only changes hues sometimes if I drag it somewhere completely different. How does this process work?.

Illustrator :: Change Decimal Places Default?

Mar 20, 2013

I'm wondering if it's possible to change the decimal place accuracy to default to only rounded numbers i.e. 1mm instead of 1.325. I want EVERYTHING to snap to the nearest mm (Axis, Dimensions etc.) rather than 1.233 for example.
 
Yes, I can manually type into the dims / axis boxes everytime but thats a chore.
