    When adding a new palette, a dialog will appear, You will see:

  • The preview image, with the colors of the palette you are creating. The preview image will be the last image seen from the gallery (or the first one if you haven't opened an image in this session). If there are no images in the gallery, a default frame will appear.

  • The 4 colors of the palette, both in hexadecimal and as a color preview.

  • The Save button.
