Bug Description

In the swatches window, clicking on a colour will
change a selected object's fill colour while
shift-clicking changes the line colour. This works
well, but when comparing colour combinations, I would
prefer not to have to use the shift-key.

As currently there is no action linked to
right-clicking on any of the swatches, wouldn't it make
sense to make right-clicking a swatch change an
object's line colour?

We actually do have plans for the right-click function. It
will be a right-click menu that will allow you to load,
save, etc swatch libraries. Plus there may be other
right-click menu appropriate functions that are planned that
I don't know about.

Now that the new swatches bar has been implemented, are
there stll plans to do something with the right mouse
button? I would imagine that the [<] button on the right of
the swatches bar could be used for the functions you mentioned.
