Why global swatches change to spot color when added to library. Is this a bug?

[samuelo67104815]

I have created global swatches of process color and added it to a library. When i use those swatches from the library, even in the document from wich they were created, they appear as spot colors. I've seen some other posts with similar issues but none of them had the answer. I mean, this seems to be a bug not yet solutioned.

In this discussion CC Library Color switching from Process to Spot  someone uses Indesign to fix it, but this comes in common swatch and not global.

Is this a bug? Is there any other solution to this?

Thanks, Ton. The workaround is good. It is just surprising to me that this is still a problem for so many years. I'm building a library to share with colleagues, and I have encountered many small issues, but they really add up! It isn't a very intuitive tool, which is really unfortunate, because it has so much potential. Thank you for being so active on the forums; I've gotten a lot of good workarounds from reading your advice to others.

Thanks Lynara for your kind words. There are more long standing problems with color and CC libraries (added colors are not color managed, they are just numbers without a profile (but my workaround adds a profile)).

Let's keep hoping the bugs get some attention.
