Why, why Illustrator doesn't ' have this feature?

This isn't a question, it is just a request...

Today, read an article, discover that indesign has a feature that I claim for a year, which is a range of ink mixer where you can combine Spot and process colors. I never use Indesign, I have no need for what I do, but it's give me to know InDesign has this feature and Illustrator only.

I know that I can make with overpint or multiply... but it will be great to see this in AI CS5, don't ' you think?

Allows to get together to flood the forum for future requests with this...

There is a way to circumvent the lack of functionality, but is not a complete solution. You can fill or stroke an object with the color in question, then add a new fill or stroke using any spot color and set the background or stroke to overprint in the Panel. Turn on overprint preview to see the new color. You can make a graphic Style for this new fill or stroke, too. Graphic styles are not as versatile as the color chart. You need a GS of different fill and stroke and even for weights of different diseases or dashes. You cannot apply a GS for only part of the text in a text object, and it's a PITA even bigger if you want a gradient, also.

I think QuarkXPress could use multi-ink color chart 10 years ago. What is Adobe so long? They don't care, at least when it comes to Illustrator. Yet.
