P: Option key not working in/with Gradient Tool

24.1

Mac OS Ventura 13.01

While using Gradient Tool the OPTION key doesn't sample colors like the eye dropper anymore.

Using the previous version of PSD on the same computer works fine

Version 24.2 does fix the Opt-Gradient/Paintbucket eyedropper bug. It's all working normally on MacOS 12.6.3

Thanks Mohit.
