Beyond the Basics CMYK, again, again: whats going on in the color bars

    I know that Inkscape/SVG and CMYK are NOT coming along very well – yet users can apply CMYK-values in InkS. color controls ...

    What's annoying me is that every time I try to enter ie. 100C, 20M and 25Y the data fields and color bars freaks out and returns arbitrary numbers and colors. Please watch sequence ...
    Can anyone please explain me, whats going on?

    Kind regards, Raaskot

    Thanks @TylerDurden 😊
    A chocking experience. Doesn’t 1.3 appear quite flawed? Wonder if posting a comment at Gitlab will do any good since the issue was added a year ago. But I’ve added it anyway …

    - The Fill and Stroke color tab appear utterly flawed
    - The CMYK tab is just one useless mess!
    - Both HSL and HSV also alter values in neighbouring number fields  randomly. Ie. when typing 200H 20S 80V the H-field returned “201” until I reentered “200”.

    Only RGB mode appear consistent. Haven’t tested hexadecimal values though.

    😀

    The good news is that devs have been working on the F&S dialog to get it in better shape.
