Custom layer colors, layer 5 yellow is killing me
Can i please change the default layer colors so that layer 5 is not always yellow? I set up files all day long and yellow on white is ******* the eyes, would love to be able to set a default layer color for the first 5 or six new layers. Thank you.
Hi Everyone,
Thanks for the feedback. The color yellow has been removed altogether as a layer color, and has been replaced by Magenta color for Layer 5. This functionality is available in our latest release build – 24.1.1 for Win and 24.1 for Mac which is available worldwide now.
What’s new in 24.1: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/whats-new.html
You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html
Thank you for all the feedback.

light colors like that should NEVER be in the list of auto created layer colors... we should still be able to select if we want...

If there's a way to change yellow color in ALL new documents?
I haven't tried it yet, but I guess I could open 'profile' document, create 5 layers, edit it's color, then delete four and save. If this would work, then the case is closed. If not — you really better think a way of letting users predefine layers' colors and other auto-stuff. -

Yes , you can change the default color layer even today.
You need to double click any layer(over layer thumbnail) to open the layer options for that layer.
Now just need to select the color , ang get rid of yellow color or any other color -

Yes. Or at least just move the yellow color to the end of the line. Worst layer color ever.
