Ungrouping outlines of text turns white
I've been experiencing an issue that whenever I convert a text to outlines and ungroup them, they all turn white and I have to recolor them.
See attached for example.

Berny, check the Apperance panel for that object before outlining.
If it has a Fill applied below Characters, than it’s a ...normal behaviour. It means that a pseudo-group that contains live glyphs has the color, and when it is ungrouped — separate glyphs don’t inherit it (it is fine).But!
How can this happen? Why a text gets colored as a color applied to a text and not characters, as it usually does (maybe)?
It can be cause by Eyedropper tool settings. Pick it and hit Enter. If it has both Appearance items checked there, it means it grabs a color and applies it as it was in the source object. So if sourced group has a top level fill — you will get such text you had. -
