Color Picker - tab

Small but annoying thing, have noticed since using the beta and now seems to be the same since updating to 25.0, when hitting tab in the color picker it doesn't automatically highlight the next number value.

 

So when you type something in rather than replacing the value in the box it just adds to the numbers already in the box.

This is so annoying... I was hoping the new update addressed this but it has not.

I'm with you here. I use this a lot and it's driving me crazy that tab is not highlighting the numbers anymore. It highlights them in other windows like canvas size etc, so far it just seems to be the color picker window. Please fix it!!

Ok, but those of us who actually USE  Adobe and have developed a quick, muscle memory driven workflow don't WANT to have to stop, think, and hit a bunch of extra keys that, each freaking time, add up to a fair ammount of lost output every day. A better default be to highlight the field tabbed to, and then people who AREN'T on a deadline, and, for some odd reason DON'T want to change the field they've bothered to select,  can just hit the left arrow key to de-highlight without all kinds of modifier keys?

Another workaround is Tab then Ctrl + A

Workaround is to hold Shift + Ctrl + left (or right arrow) to select text, actually number. I can confirm that hiting Tab does not automatically selects number in the next field. It just jumps cursor in the next field without highlighting number.
