      I made a report about this months ago and @vectoradmin asked me to report back if I discovered when VS changes color mode in the color panel without me wanting it to. It drives me insane that when I select color mode HSB - the only mode I want to work in, ever almost, and suddenly I find myself back in RGB mode. Keep color mode is of course enabled.

      I found these two instances - there may be even more - I see same behavior from swatches panel:

      A) VS color panel is in RGB mode before creating document. I create a document, switch to HSLBand the pen tool immidiately forces it back to RGB.

      B) VS color panel is in HSL mode before creating the document, stays in HSB when creating a new, I draw a shape and swap fill and stroke forces color mode back to RGB.

        @Ingolf I've noticed it likes to switch back to RGB when I am in CMYK mode, but I have not had a chance to see if it's a bug or user error on my part. Perhaps your example of this is tied to it?

          I am pretty sure it is tied to it.

          I also saw one instance of it happening when using the swatch (picked a color) but I could not reproduce it since.

            @Ingolf The color sliders are updated automatically from the color mode stored in the object.
            To keep the sliders regardless of the selected color mode: in the Color panel menu enable "Keep Color Mode".

              Keep color mode has been enabled here for months 🙂 So ...

                    If you follow the steps above in VS for macOS or Windows it happens every time 🙂
