    Can we fix the strange discarding of the color profile when dragging a screenshot thumbnail into an open Illustrator document (Mas OS — Command+shift+4, or Command+shift+3, or Command+shift+5). The thumbnail appears in the corner of the screen prior to the screenshot being saved to the Desktop.

    Using File>Place, or copying/pasting from any other program, or even dragging and dropping a screenshot from the desktop or other folder all cue a warning if there is a profile mismatch. And to my experience, placing in any of those ways does not change the document profile, regardless of what I choose when the warning comes up.

    However: dragging and dropping a screenshot thumbnail preview cues no warning at all, and Illustrator silently discards the colour profile. When working on branding and website design users need to pull in screenshots without losing their brand colours. I have to save two documents all the time as a precaution as this happens in most of my illustrator files. Despite brining in screenshots other ways. Please resolve its been years of pain!!!
