"Apply" button in user settings

When I modify settings, in any software, I like to have an "Apply" button that doesn't close the window but makes the changes effective.

 

Example : I want to change the color of my canvas.

 

I open the settings, change the color to one I like, then save (which closes the settings window). Finally, I don't like the color and want to use another one. I open again the settings window, change the color again, then save (which closes the window again) and so on...

 

It's bothering to have to open the window each time.

So I think, having this kind of button in the user settings window would make the settings modification more comfortable for the user.

Great idea, a little bit like the 'Test' button when adding DB connections
