    Hi,
    I've recently tried out some other built in swatches in Inkscape 1.4, and now when I'm opening it, it always set the selected swatches to the "Document swatches"  my color palette is empty, and every time a had to manually select an other swatches to display any color. I tried to change the preferences.xml : palette="/tmp/.mount_InkscarmHH3R/usr/share/inkscape/palettes/inkscape.gpl" attribute but still has no effect on it. Any idea how can I save my selected swatches to be remembered?

    1. Describe your OS (your computer's Operating System: Mac/Windows/Linux/etc. & version).
    2. Describe if Inkscape was newly installed, or upgraded from an earlier version.
    3. Describe the version of Inkscape and the installer you used (the file you downloaded from the web: .msi/.exe/.zip/appimage/other, PPA/Snap/Flatpak, dmg/other )
    4. Describe any special hardware being used, like tablet/stylus, external drives or multiple monitors.
    5. Describe any helper/assistive programs or keyboard modifiers (macros, languages, etc.).

    Bonus points, if you:

    • Attach* a screenshot of the issue.
    • Attach* an example SVG file that has the issue.

    Posting links to outside hosts is also permitted, hotlinking (embedding) is not.
