    Default Help fixing a scrambled color line and color gallery?

    Hi,

    I have a large file containing over 100 business graphics (1 per page). The color line contains an extensive palette that somehow got scrambled. Of course, I can no longer find the colors I needed because they are not grouped.

    I've attached a xar file with a screen capture of the scrambled version and the way it should look as well as the correct Color Gallery.

    Other than manually reordering the scrambled Color Gallery in my original file is there a way to fix this? I have a blank xar file that contains the Color Gallery as it should be if that's any help.

    Thanks, gang!

    Dave

    Dave, a thought only. Copy all the pages to a new file.

    Is you Options > View > Colours set to delete unused colours?

    Dave I looked at your file and find no problems. My color bar on opening your post looks exactly like your (how it is supposed to look) so I am no help. Try restarting your computer, if that doesn't work run as administrator, if that doesn't work either submit a ticket.

    When you open a new document, are all the colors in the correct place?

    Then what happens if you copy and paste a photo onto the new page?

    Interesting, Gary. I had not thought of that.

    That's why they pay me the big bucks. (Just kidding—I'm a volunteer like everyone else)
