Can I Save (permanently) Custom Colors (Display)?
For my work with Prusa Slicer I often need to show a rendering of the product, and color is important. The color pop-up screen on the depth (thickness) slider has an option to "add to custom colors" (image attached). I can use the slider to get a color that I want to display, and add it to custom colors. The problem is this custom color will not be available to use for the next project. Has anyone found how to permanently save a custom color? I find the color tool clunky and have a tough time creating a sky blue, which I need to use often.

One approach is to add the custom color and save the project as a 3mf file and then use it as a template for your next project

Thank you. Yes this can work. I don't know if you had something in mind by template, but I did it specifically like this.
Save the file that I created the custom color for.
Opened the saved file for my next project, deleted the object that was in this file.
Imported my new object (I create 3mf files in Autodesk for import).
When I slice the new object the custom color I created previously appears on the sliced object. It still does not appear in the 'Custom Colours' box - which is empty. You have provided me a workaround. I think the custom colors should carry with the program, not the project, which would be consistent with other programs I have worked with.
