3 Saving color groups and pattern swatches.
Applying a saved color group will only give
predictable results when applied to the original pattern (not the one you just
created), so as you save a group in RA, be careful to include the name of the original
pattern swatch in the color group's name. To save a pattern variation, click OK in RA,
then click Save a Copy on the Pattern Isolation Mode bar. Name your pattern in the
pop-up, and from this point forward, that swatch will retain both the palette and the
color assignment. Remember you can still create a color group from a pattern swatch
after exiting RA by following the instructions given in the first part of this lesson.
