I make a new color, give it it’s CMYK mix, close the color window. Go back into it to alter the color and it gives me a completely different color mix than the one I had.
Anyone else fet this?

First, try using RGB rather than CMYK. You’re designing for screen.
While CMYK colour mixing has its uses even here, the whole colour
model works differently from how colours are produced on screen. Work
in RGB (or HSB/HLS) instead.
If this doesn’t help, could you make a note of the settings of the
colour sliders, try it out, then go back… have they shifted at all?
I have seen this problem myself, but I’m not sure how unusual this is.

Yeah, the person doing the mock up in InDesign used CMYK, so it was easier to match them that way.
I made RGB equivalents and they seem to stick. The CMYK were off in color appearance, then it seemed to fix it self. It’s like I had to keep going in and redoing the edit until it “stuck”.

Try using the little magnifying glass (top right) in the Freeway
colour mixing palette to sample colours in other document on your
screen. It does saves a lot of time.
