With the PowerMacintosh version of ClarisDraw 1.0, when a gradient palette file is left open in one document, the gradient palette is not updated if opened simultaneously in another document.
To reproduce:
1. Launch ClarisDraw
2. Tear off the gradient palette, and leave it near the bottom of the screen
3. Draw a rectangle and fill it with a spectrum gradient
4. Double-click the eyedropper and click on the object
5. Click each gradient in the top row of the palette (applying this gradient to each)
6. Save the palette
7. Open a new document
8. Open the saved gradient palette.
Notice the open palette isn't updated, unless it's under the Open dialog. Collapsing and uncollapsing refreshes it.
