This is a minor issue, but hugely annoying to me. The newest update broke the ability to double-click a color value in the color picker popup window. Whereas before, I could quickly and habitually double-click a RGB or HSL value and re-type the desired value.... now, I have to click-drag-select, or I have to click and backspace a few times to enter a new value.

I tried all the other edit value inputs and they work as expected - doubleclicking selects the entire value so I can instantly type over it. Only the color picker seems to be busted from the way it was prior to 1.8.1.

I wonder if this is a related bug to what you're experiencing... I can't single-click on the color picker to change shades without first selecting one of the 32 swatches at the bottom. After I do that, then I can click around in the color picker and it'll change appropriately.

This is working normally, if the original color is white then the gradient window to the right has its value set at white at the top, this will produce the same color wherever you click in the main window, because its white, but if you click lower in the right gradient window, you can then select colors as you please from the main window without touching the swatches

The original post i've bug reported as it appears inconsitant with how other entry windows operate.

I've had problems with clicking on the slider on the right of the color picker, since 1.7. Sometimes I have to click and double-click 4 or 5 times to get it to move.

Oh, DoteDote, I thought I was the only one that had noticed. A small bug, but irritating nonetheless.
