Hex value disappeared in Color palette

Version 26.7.0 on OS X 15.4.1

 

What has happened to Photoshop? I'm having so many issues with it, lately.


The latest is the little window for Hex in the Color palette has disappeared. No, I am not in 32 bit color mode. I'm in 8 bit. I changed to 16 bit and back to 8 and the hex color value window is still missing.


I already had to delete all my preferences recently because of a bug where the grid in View would keep being turned on with every single file I opened. And deleting the preferences fixed that bug.

 

Thanks!

@scotw74004221 Can you check in Preferences > General > Color Picker that you are using the Adobe color picker.

Are referring to the Color Picker?

 

 

Can you post a screenshot of what your seeing?

HEX numbers won't show up in the color picker if you are in 32 bit mode. Can you please tell us what mode you are in?

 

Also, are you in OS X a.k.a. OS 10 or in OS 15? You said both.

OP said 8-bit,  not 32.
