Question
Color Picker plugin choice not applied to solid color fill layer
I think I have found a bug in Photoshop CS2 for the Macintosh. It works correctly when the Apple or Adobe color pickers are used, but if the color picker is a plugin, the color picker choice is ignored:
With a document open, select Layer -> New Fill Layer -> Solid Color
Press OK. A color picker will appear
Select a different color than initially shown. Click OK to confirm the choice.
If the color picker is a plug-in, then the color of the new fill layer will be the same as the previously chosen foreground color. This is incorrrect. If the color picker was either the Adobe or Apple one, the fill layer will have the correct color.
A workaround is to set the foreground color before creating the fill layer.
