Hi everyone,
I'm having big issues with the color editor, I'm new with this software, so still learning, but it's stuck or something! My only options are "light cantone, dark cantone, and local line color". When I drag the picker to the object that has the color I want-it changes the object to grey, then black. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, or if there's some setting I don't know about...but I've spent way too much time, hopefully someone knows what I'm talking about.

Oh, also, I did create a new color the other day, but now it's gone. Is there someway to save colors so they're always available? As it is, they don't even show up on the bottom in the squares! I'd like to have lots of custom colors down there, can't seem to do that either.

Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated! I would really like to get good at this program, but I remember how frustrating PS was in the beginning.(for me, anyway)
Thanks!
now I have to walk away for 15mins. or I'll lose it
