dropdown consume one extra click for closing

[Laurentrentrentrent]

repro:

add a color ramp

click on one of the color circle = color picker appears

click on another color circle = the color picker disappear but the color circle isn't selected

should be: the second color circle is selected

and every popup consumes an extra click for closing

should be: a click performs the action AND closes the popup/contextual

Hi @Laurentrentrentrent
Is this a bug or more feedback for how you want the Colour Picker and Fill Tool to function?
If possible can you send a screen recording of this behaviour in action to clarify things.

Hello,

I don't know if it's a bug or by design, it feels like a bug because it doesn't behave like other softwares I use (photoshop, unity, maya, jetbrain IDE) and it doubles the number of required clicks with zero advantage.

 

 

Here you can see this bug and also that a new canvas has no layer, again it can be by design but, since there is no benefit in having zero layer on a new canvas, it seems like a bug.

Hi @Laurentrentrentrent

A new document will show as a blank canvas by design, as not every user has the same workflow so having a pixel layer added on creation would be a nuisance to some.

The Fill Tool cannot be used on a blank canvas as it needs an object or layer to be applied to. 

The Gradient stops can be changed using the Colour menu in the context toolbar as you showed, but you can also select the stop on the canvas then change the colour from the Colour Panel.

It appeared as if you were trying to demonstrate applying an FX to the Gradient stop, the FX can be applied to the overall object or layer but not the specific stop. 

 

For clarity, I have moved your post to the feedback section of the forum.
