Swatch options doesn't work on Illustrator 2024

[Gamze30553955mcev]

When I double-click a swatch color, swatch options don't show up. Only I can see and edit the name of the swatch. I want to add this color to my cloud library but there is no option.

You cannot add a gradient to a CC library.

Global colors, Spot colors, gradients, brushes and pattern swatches are not very well supported in CC libraries.

But as a workaround you can drag an object using a brush/pattern/gradient/global color to the CC Library 

You can also drag multiple items using different brushes/patterns/gradients/global/spot colors together into a CC library to simulate a library. Text objects must be grouped before adding them as graphics.

The easiest way to add them to a new document is to hold down the Alt key when you drag them from the library and place them in a new document. The patterns/gradients/global colors automatically get added to your swatches panel.

You can hit escape before you click to place the object(s) or delete the dragged library items because the swatches and brushes are now part of the document.

I can add a gradient swatch in Photoshop but not in Illustrator. However, I was able to do it on an older version of Illustrator CC. Please see my CC library below:

Capture gradient? It cannot be from Illustrator unless it is an object filled with that gradient.
