Layer FX UI issue Color Overlay blend mode switch resets color


Recommended Posts

When you use layer FX, Color Overlay, and switch through the blend modes, the color always resets to black.

Not seeing that effect here.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. create any vector shape with current selected color (should be white for simplicity)
  2. immediately activate layer fx, color overlay
  3. Click again on color overlay name area to get the UI Element active (needing this as separate step is annoying. I understand that it might be handy in other situations)
  4. start changing the color from black to blue
  5. If you click on the right arrow to switch blend mode the color gets reset. (37s in video)

it seems you need to “correctly” close the color chooser by clicking one of “approved” UI elements (Color Circle, blend mode name). It does not happen when clicking the blend mode name to open the list.

Ahh, I see what you mean. Tapping the left or right arrow head either side of the menu, resets the colour change. Definitely a bug.
