So I want to do a simple gold-yellow-gold-yellow-gold fountain fill in X7.
In X6, I can just choose the Gold preset and change accordingly.
In X7, I'm lost.First, there is no more presets. Second, when I try to choose the node color, there is no standard colors with names to choose from (Gold in this case).If I try to pick the color (e.g. Yellow) from the color palette, the default color palette is PANTONE Solid Coated instead of CMYK.And there is no more Edge pad option.
That is ridiculously troublesome for a simple task.
Kursad Cakir said:Hi Michael, 2. You can access to the CMYK color selector by clicking to "show color viewers" button.
Both the "Show color sliders" and "Show color viewer" are CMYK, but the "Show color palettes" is PANTONE by default.
Btw, I do few testing and find out the behaviour as below:
1 (a) If I draw a shape with no fill, launch the Fill tool, choose uniform fill, the defaults are: Color Viewer : CMYK Color Wheel : CMYK Color Palette : PANTONE
(b) If I draw a shape with no fill, launch the Fill tool, choose fountain fill, change the node color, the defaults are: Color Slider : CMYK Color Viewer : CMYK Color Palette : PANTONE
2 (a) If I draw a shape, fill it with a color from the Default Palette (CMYK), launch the Fill tool, choose uniform fill, the defaults are:
Color Viewer : CMYK Color Wheel : CMYK Color Palette : CMYK
(b) If I draw a shape, fill it with a color from the Default Palette (CMYK), launch the Fill tool, choose fountain fill, change the node color, the defaults are: Color Slider : CMYK Color Viewer : CMYK Color Palette : PANTONE
Ok I'm most likely screwing this up but no matter how I do this I can access all the colors supported by Corel, spot color, CMYK, RGB or what ever with a simple click. Spot colors are there with no issues. As I said I bet I'm screwing up the process.
Hi David,
The issue is not the accessibility, but the default.
Just in case I used the wrong terminologies, here is another comparison between X6 and X7 of the issue I'm referring to:
In X7 I get what you get in X6
Will do as soon as I get some time.
