I wrote about this before and am wondering if this is normal. It is not the way that the App Store AP 1.67 works. I find this to be a very frustrating exercise.
I am inserting a video which I have trimmed to show what I think might be a bug. Note that when I first use the tool with Linear highlighted I get the colour wheel, I then need to click on the layer in order to get the Gradient choice opened. I repeated this with Radial and the same thing happens. I have found that at times in other images that I need to continuously go to the layer and click on it before I get the gradient choice opened. Very frustrating. In my other post I thought that I was in error but there seems to be something strange happening.
Please look at this and see what you think . Incidentally I have tried this on other images and it continues to happen.
