Ive always hated how the color picker tool works in Affinity Designer on the desktop. You pick a color with the color picker tool but the color doesnt apply to your object. I dont know why. You have to do an extra step of clicking the color for the color to be applied to your object. Its so annoying. 

When i tried out the color picker tool in the affinity designer ipad app I was super happy because theres an option called "auto apply." Auto apply lets you apply the color that you picked to your object. You dont have to do the extra step of clicking the color for the color to be applied. Its so good. It works how the color picker should. 

The problem is "auto apply" is only available when you select the color picker tool in the toolbar. You cant have "auto apply" turned on with the color picker in the color studio. The color picker in the color studio works where you have to select your color and then hit the color again to apply the color. Its annoying. I wish I could have "auto apply" turned on for the color picker in the color studio as well.

So my request is for the serif team to some how allow "auto apply" be turned on for the color picker in the color studio.  When i dont use the color picker tool in the toolbar I use the color picker in the color studio. So I dont know how you would do it. I was thinking that what ever settings you have turned on for the color picker tool in the toolbar, thats how ALL color pickers in the app would work. So if I have auto apply turned on then the color picker in the color studio would auto apply my color. Something like that would help.
