Changed Spot Colors from Illustrator won't update in InDesign color swatches
If you place an Illustrator file in InDesign which includes spot colors, and change the color values in Illustrator, the changed values will not show up in InDesign's color swatches panel.
Tested with InDesign 25 and 26.
On a Mac.
You can see on the screenshot:
I first made a frame with the spot color "STANZE Magenta" in Illustrator and placed in in InDesign.
Then I changed the color values in Illustrator so that the color is green.
In InDesign the places image is updated and shows the correct green color.
But in the swatch panel it is still magenta.
