I know that it is most likely too late to ask for any new features for the next versions, but perhaps for future a palette editor would nice feature to have.

A palette editor would work much like the Xpal utility created years ago, and still available on the Xara Xone Shareware pages, but would also have controls for importing palette files, and for selecting colours from a group of vector objects as well as a bitmap image.

so for example you could create a set of rectangles for swatches, use the colour editor to edit the colours and name them, you would have them all selected and open the palette editor and you could click import from selection and the palette editor would generate your palette of colours which would be named according to the names you gave them with the colour editor.

A save button could save the palette to the program,s palettes folder and an import button could allow you to browse and select any palette files that Xara can use and save them to the palettes folder.
