Cannot change font hex color value in the Edit Text Style dialog

[David Kingham]

Title says it all. I can change the hex value in all other dialogs, but not this one. Click the hex value and cannot type or paste.

That's an already reported bug, as far as I remember.
You cannot paste via keyboard shorcut, but you can still cut, copy and paste in these fields via context menu.

Another workaround until this gets fixed would be changing the text formatting directly in the layout and updating the text style based on selection.

Thanks, I looked to see if this had been reported but couldn't find anything. I appreciate the workaround, that will get me by for now!
