Not able to select a custom color in the preferences / interface window Photoshop 2025

Prior to Photoshop 2025 selecting a custom color (white) in the Preferences / Interface window was to simply click on select a Custon Color and a color selector would pop up. With Photoshop 2025 / Mac nothing pops up. Has the process changed?

It still works when right-clicking in the workspace backdrop - which is where I've always done this anyway; so I would never have noticed this.

That’s the same reason I never noticed this, at least for the workspace backdrop…I always right-click. So right-clicking is a workaround for the backdrop, for now.

 

Mac users, if secondary click is not enabled for your current Mac input device, Control-click the backdrop.

Actually that whole rolldown is dead, nothing happens with any of the options.

Same in Windows 11 with v26.0.0

I've moved this to bugs, removed the Mac reference from the title and tagged it as Windows and Mac.

I just tried this and got the same thing (Select Custom Color does nothing in all four pop-up menus there), so a moderator should consider moving this thread to the Bugs forum.

 

Photoshop 26.0.0
