Gradient Tool Bug

For the third time now, attempting to use the gradient fill tool has caused Adobe Animate to shut down. 

Using the newest version of Animate, I have a 2017 Imac, and OS is Ventura 13.6

 

Anyone else experiencing this? Any idea why this is happening?

also, note if the issue occurs in a newly created fla or just one particular fla.

Hey there, 

This happens in every projet I try to use the gradient tool in. 

Another issue I'm having with the gradient tool - The eyedropper for choosing a color at one end of the spectrum doesn't work. When I choose a color from the frame, it switches back to solid color. Which means if I want to match a color, I have to eyeball it which is frustrating. The gradient tool is very buggy.

Choosing colors, adjusting the gradient, any use of the gradient tool can trigger a shut-down.
