03

The demo stays isolated

  • Demo palettes exist only while the demo tab is active.
  • Switching away restores the active and stored palette state you had before the demo.
  • Closing the guide leaves the unsaved practice project open for more testing.
  • The guide uses subtle outlines and compact hints instead of darkening the whole interface.
