The Adobe Color Themes panel is being removed! (July 2021)

Hello, I can see that the Adobe Color Themes panel is being removed from the Creative Suite this month (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign). There is no explanation or details online, is it being replaced with something else? Is it being implemented in another panel or will the feature disappear completely? Why would it be removed? Could someone please give more information?

This is due to a ramification of a technical limitation the panel faces. Adobe will be bringing the creative tools back into applications by integrating them in the Libraries panel in the future.

I agree - this is so annoying as I use this often and its not very practical to leave the application go search for a palette and then save to your library. Cant you get rid of something else if you don't have room?

Due to a technical limitation of my wallet, I'll be paying 50% less this month. We cool?

I hear ya. Adobe has treated my wallet good. But what aggravates me is I took a tutorial on that panel and was like Wow....new to the new Illustrator ect and was like this is something I can work with.....then BQQM its Disappear(ed) (INXS 1990)

 

I hope they add it back. I wanna use it cause going to the internet to color coordinate ect ect is a real bummer this past summer.

Same question here: I know there's the online utility color.adobe.com, and that you can save your creations as libraries, but the workflow is not really practical to use, as opposes as the current extension, which requires only the panel opening inside Ps, with everything you need to create, edit or browse themes.

 

Are you supplying a newer version of it, or is it just a removal?

Same question. I love the Color Themes Panel! Just placing a message like this here without any additional information is a really unfreindly UX.
