Disabling "Recently Used Colors"?

Community Beginner ,
Jul 26, 2017 Jul 26, 2017

Greetings all--I've just been upgraded from CS6 to CC 2017 at work, and I've run into a little annoyance (at least to me).  When I'm using the Line tool to draw a line, clicking the "Fill" color picker on the tool bar brings up a list of recently used colors instead of the color picker.  Is there any way of disabling the list of recently used colors and forcing Photoshop to just open the color picker directly when selecting a color tool?  (I know I can still get to the color picker using the Foreground Color tool in the tools window, but I'm in the habit of going to that Fill option with the Line tool.)  Thanks!

There is no setting to remove the recently used colors strip, but clicking the icon on the right will bring up the Color Picker.

Thanks--I had found the color picker button in that drop-down, but I was hoping there was a way to get rid of the additional step altogether.  (You wouldn't think something so minor could throw you off your rhythm so much, but it certainly did for me.)  I'll head off and file a suggestion for optioning it off.

Odd enough the Swatches Panel does have that option, so it should be possible.
