| Description | Overview To permanently save custom colours. Problem Custom colours exist in two palettes, only one which has a save function. The colours selected for the second palette are only available for the duration of the session. Solution I would like all Custom Colours to use a single custom colour palette which can be saved or, failing that, for the two separate palettes both to be savable. As discussed in a recent thread, at present the only Custom Colours that can be saved permanently in a custom colour palette are those used in: Diagram Options > General tab > Sundry Colours and Diagram Options > General tab > Background > Options A separate custom colour palette, called �Custom Colors� (American spelling, even when the language preference is set to UK) is used for all of the following: Insert into Diagram > (shape, line, etc) > Format > Line and Fill Color Diagram Options > General tab > Relationship descriptions > Font > Colour Diagram Options > General tab > No-offspring marker > Options Color Diagram Options > General tab > Check for Duplicates > Options > Edit Line/Fill Color Diagram Options > General tab > Number out-of-sequence spouses > Font > Colour Diagram Options > Text tab Edit Text Scheme: Font Edit > << Select > Colour Diagram Options > Boxes tab Edit Features for Box Fill, Box Line & Text Colour Diagram Options > Lines tab Normal/Crossing Lines colour The colours selected for this palette are available for the duration of the session using FH but the palette cannot be saved beyond the current session. They can be retrieved by copying each one from a saved chart or by keeping note of the numerical values of Hue, Sat, Lum, Red, Green, Blue but this is unnecessarily cumbersome. |
