Title: 5.5 glitch or corrupted?
Post by: stacyk on November 07, 2011, 06:45:24 PM
Not sure how long it has been doing this but i have finally had enough.
My indesign (5.5) swatches wont let me change any process colours i create.
I can create them no worries but if I try and adjust them it defaults to the pantone screen (yes it does have process and cmyk still selected). Has anyone else had this issue or can tell me how to fix it.

THX :)

Don't have that problem, or just never seen it. Can you post the InDesign file for us to look at? I am curious about a few things.

I have just created a new doc as it is a software problem, not file specific.
All my documents have this issue, supplied files and created files.
I have used a default swatch for this doc as this issues affects both default and created swatches.

I cannot reproduce the problem in 5.5. Everything is working the way it should. Maybe you have some corrupt color prefs or even a corrupt color library. Have you tried trashing your preferences?

Nah, just simple deduction. :wink:

After you get your prefs set back up... SAVE THEM somewhere else. That way, when it happens again, and it will... you don't have to rebuild everything again. Just sayin'.
