Selecting Pantone colours 1

[MarcusStringer]

Has anyone had the same problem as me when selecting Pantone swatches.

I used to (CS1 and earlier) be able to simply bring up the Pantone Swatches Library Window type the number I want and it would select it.

Now in CS2 I have to scroll through the colour Pallet looking for it.
It won't let me type the number any more.

How frustrating.

Is it just me or do other people have the same problem???

If so, is there an easy way around selecting Pantone Colours.
Or do have to keep scrolling up and down until I find it.

Does CS2 still have the little triangle at the top of the library window with the "Show find field" option? Without that checked, no find. It's also easier to use list view for the library.

I have heard that, in Australia, kangaroos occassionly sneak into offices overnight and delete this little thing making it hard to find colors. This could also be a possibility in your case. Yu might look for random hoof prints on your mouse and/or keyboard.

Yeah...well...I suppose you click on that...if you wanted to...that might work...

The Kangaroos aren't the problem, it's the Koala's you really have to watch out for, they get into everything...

By the way If you guys are in America, if coming over there in a couple of days.

What the weather like around Vegas, LA and San Fran???

Absoluetly perfect in all those places now. However in a few days it's supposed to drop to -40 with 900 CM of snow. Very, very rare for this time of year especially in the desert - Las Vegas.

Dress warm and bring snowshoes - they're already sold out in San Fran.

Seriously, It should be nice in all those places.
