Swatch Panel weird glitch

When I try to change a shade existing CMYK, spot color palette seems to load on top of CMYK sliders and I can not change the CMYK swatch.  This has started to happen a week ago out of the blue, and it won't go away.

I took a video screen to specify, because when you read it like that probably sounds ridiculous:

We never seen anything like this? I would just point out: PROCESS and mode CMYK color is selected. But the picture represented is Pantone spot.

Someone has an idea how to solve this problem otherwise that uh, reinstall ID?

I use InDesign CS4 on OS x Snow Leopard.

I'm sorry. Found the answer. Why this forum is always offering the right search results after I post a topic, ever?

In any case, the answer is here:

  • Weird glitch transparent on my apps

    Hello community,

    I met a bit of an oddity. I got my dads, computer laptop, it's a Macbook Pro 10.1 mid 2012 with screen retina, the latest version of OS X El Capitan 10.11.6, i7 2.6 with a SSD of SD512 Apple and 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3. Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 1024Mo of 650 M.

    It is immaculate and works perfectly apart from a glitch whenever I start an application while having another open on the same office space in these odd remnants of it, faded but noticeable. I have enabled transparency 'reduce' turning on and off to see if it is the question, but it changed nothing. I'm an advanced user, but I have no idea what this might be. The strange this is, when I wanted to do a screenshot to post here, it does not appear, that's why I resorted to cracks the screen with my phone and the display of those below (I can do more if the issue is not clearly visible for some).

    If anyone knows anything, please any suggestions are welcome. This is the first time I ever had to start my own thread, since normally any problem can be solved with browsing a bit, but this time I even found the corresponding number. I have this feeling, due to the screenshot not having is not the weird glitch on it, maybe it's a hardware problem with the screen, but I'm stumped.

    Thank you in advance.

    Peace,

  • Adding swatches to the swatches Panel toolbar... takes default background color

    Hi I have some problems with the workflow in Photoshop. I'm new to Photoshop CC.

    I was previously using CS3

    I don't know why this is the case, but has been use to easily add the color of foreground for samples and now I have the colors of the foreground color, background to get the color I want in my color chart. It seems counter intuitive. Did I miss something or is there a switch to choose the color of the background instead of the foreground color when added to the swatches Panel?

    Choose the color Panel, and then click the foreground color

    Now, when you choose swatches > new nuance he must choose the foreground color

  • My newly created model swatch will not be displayed in the swatch Panel

    I created a model of plaid and dragged to the swatch group. When I tested, I realized there is some error so I deleted the swatch in the swatch Panel, then edited my original (created a bounding box with no fill, no stroke and sent to the rear). When I try to drag the new model highlight in the swatch Panel, this time that it will not be displayed; But if I create a new shade of single color it will be. Help!

    I had the same problem, but the answer by Monika helped me to understand the problem: I divorced from all elements in the model, then checked each one in the appearance Panel. I discovered that I had inadvertently forms filled with a pattern. When I deleted all those unwanted models of each shape and banded everything, I could record the reason as a sample.

    Probably, you have opened a file image (raster). Try to make a new document and use the file > place to insert the image.

  • How to get color PMS 'custom' in swatch Panel

    Have a job that requires the 9064U PMS... seem unable to access in the swatches Panel, showing color PMS available (not lying color books)... How can I get this in my Swatch InD?

  • When I open a new illustrator document color swatches cs6 don't appear in the swatch Panel. 10.9.3 MAC user

    my color chart do not appear in the swatch Panel when I open a new document cs6. 10.9.3 MAC user

    Color chart is included in the new profiles of documents appearing in the menu 'profile '. Were you by selecting a profile from there deliberately? What happens if you do now - select 'Print' or 'Web '?

    If the documents do not always contain the nuances and you are certain that you do not change the document profiles, then they could have been damaged.

  • Cannot save a gradient to a swatch panel

    Help, I have always been able to do before.  (should be simple...) I did a gradient and want to just save / add a Swatch Panel I already defined and registered.  I used to be able to drag (I think) the gradient in the Panel to the desired shade, then 'save the shade again"he doesn't let me it today even though I just did last night!  :-(

    I'm working on a Windows 7 machine and I use Illustrator CS5...

    Very frustrating; any help would be great, thanks!

    You can add swataches to the Group swatch to a swatch library, unless you open the Swatch Library document in artificial intelligence and drag the object with the gradient to the file containing the samples in the swatches and re - save you can delete the object once it has been added to the swatch group.

    It woukd be nice to have such a feature, but I'm not sure hwo it might work because the two files are different files.

    BTW, you never did what you describe you could add to the Swatches palette not only in a swatch library panel.

    It would be nice feature and because it works the other wa autour I do not see why I could not work the way that describe you. But I don't know how it works?

  • Broken Swatches Panel

    Hello

    My Swatches from InDesign CS5 Panel crossed yesterday.

    When I select a text box with the arrow tool, I should be able to click on the "box" or "T" icons at the top of the Swatches palette to choose if I want the box to change color or type of color to change. These items are not selectable.

    It works very well in the color Panel, but not the swatches Panel. The swatches Panel works fine when I connect with a different user account.

    I wonder what preference file causes this problem. I tried many files of Adobe preferences out of my library, without success.

    Here is a screenshot of the problem Panel area. I have a text box selected when I took this shot:

  • Swatches Panel > add colors used - converts all MP to treat!

    Why, oh why doesn't Illustrator do that - when a file audit and determine what colors havbe served, clear the swatches Panel and then hit 'Add used colors' are a wonderful way to get a peek at all the colors used in an file - BUT - forget it if you use PMS (which I do), because all the PMS to convert to the process Oops!

    Can't understand why this happens. A useful function otherwise is made much less usable.

    Sadness.

  • Problem with the swatches Panel

    There is a problem with my Swatches Panel.

    When I select an object that can be colored in the page, such as a box, I choose a color for it in the swatches Panel. but, the little icon top left of this Panel that normally indicates if the color is applied to the fill or line, is empty. I can click on the arrows swap fill and stroke, near the icon and the fill and stroke will swap; but the icon is empty... just gray.

    Indicators of background and outline in the Panel of colors and the toolbar but displays correctly, however.

    The swatches Panel is displayed correctly when logged in another account.

    I'm on a Mac and tried to screw up the "idcs5_Swatches Panel.mxi" and "idcs5_Swatch Library Panel.mxi" files or not available.

    Is there another file I should try screw up? Could this be a conflict with another program?

    Thank you!

  • How to customize the size of the "Swatches" Panel in Photoshop CS 4/5?

    Swatches Panel.JPG

    Hello
    (1) using the edge of the bottom right hand corner you can drag a Swatches Panel to a smaller or larger size.

    The picture above was taken with the dimensions of the swatch group counld drag down does not further in a smaller size. I want to reduce the dimensions of the Swatches palette to show only a row of small color tiles to increase the space of my place of work in Photoshop CS5.

    (2) also, I would be eternally grateful if one of you could tell me how to assign some shortcut keys for color chart custom color that I select with the eyerdropper tool and save in the swatches Panel.

    No and no. Sorry, it is not possible. All panels have a fixed size that cannot be further reduced. And assign shortcuts to swatches is not possible in any application that I know. It is perhaps the case in dedicated toon / coloring tools, but generally it isn't really make sense for the generic graphics applications as you can easily exhaust your shortcuts just for that...

  • Tri color swatch Panel

    Is it possible to sort the entries in the swatch Panel so that they are in alphabetical order? It sounds like an obvious thing to do and something that I would have thought that InDesign would have done himself.
