Scribus 1.7.2 Imported Colors Disappear

I've just noticed and did some further testing, but when I import my existing Scribus-generated list of colors, they are brought in, I press OK, they're there, but then when I create a new document, the colors are all missing. In fact, I wind up with three options for both text and object coloring: "none", "black", and "white".

Using the same data file, I am successful in importing these colors in 1.6.x.

Scribus' new document loads a default template that has just the those few colors. The solution would be to create your default document with the color palette  you want, save and copy it to the default document, or!, make a new template and save it in the templates and load that instead.

I did a small test and could not notice anything wrong.

Would you mind giving a bit more details?
  • How did you create the list of colors?
  • Would you mind sharing a list of colors that can be used to reproduce the issue?
  • What are the steps you are doing before you get to the three only colors?

if you press 'delete unused' in 'colors and fills' without an open file, you will end up with black, white and registration only. (you need to select a color before 'delete unused' is clickable...)

to solve the problem you need to select a palette (or create a custom one) – again without an open file. if you change the palette when a document is open, your fix will just be for this single file.
