Hi,

I've got a situation whereby a color that I have previously exposed, and misspelled, can't be removed; the color in question is 'Tempora Red Ting'.

I've created another color with the correct name 'Temora Screen' but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get rid of the Ting :? If I change the color and republish I can't find any element with that color.

For now, I think you can only choose to not expose that color and then re-expose it with a new title.

I have tried that already. The wrong colors still appear in the skin configuration although they are not assigned to anything in the skin.

Hi,
The steps for adding and removing a colour are as are follows:

• Select the skin element in the tree, then select the colour tool, select the colour or expand the colour to see the individual element that has that colour.
Right button click and Expose As then give it a name and select if you want to use Alpha

• Here the colour is exposed with an incorrect name

• Select the colour again, right button click and select Do not expose

• If you expose a colour without closing the colour tool the incorrect name will still be in the list.

• Once you close the colour tool and open again the wrong name/colour will be gone
Repeat the above steps to expose the colour again with the correct name.

Hi,

i'm also struggling with this. i added a test SVG button, exposed some colors and later after test completed removed the button. but the exposed colors are still in the "edit skin configuration".. nowhere in the skin i can still find those colors or values.

i even tried to add a simple box and exposed its color with that same name again, just in order to remove it 'properly' by selecting "do not expose" and then deleting the box again, no result, the colors of the deleted SVG are still in the configuration. (between adding and removing exposures i save and reload the skin file..)

no idea how i can get rid of those entries. I can even rename them, that works properly, but not delete.

Has any solution been found for this issue? I am unable to remove color listings from skin preferences, even though the color has been removed as exposed using the Color Tool.
