Color Selector for Artboard Obstructs preview color bar
-
This may have already been mentioned, but just in case it was not, I noticed that when I change the color of the artboard, the color selector box obstructs the preview color bar. Could this be offset just below the preview box?
-
@Boldline I added this to the backlog. Does this mean to not obstruct the button that was used to open the color selector?

I get this neat result every time on macOS, I assume this is exactly what @Boldline expects.
When I move the Artboard options dialog down and retry though the color selector starts to cover the underlying dialog.
So there are several scenarios where moving it a bit down is not possible. Popping it up slightly to the right is probably safer but somewhat non-standard. A side-by-side before < > after color view in the active dialogs is probably the ideal choice that will work across devices and resolutions if the goal is to always offer the user a view of the new color compared to the one already in use. But that requires a lot of effort across VS's features.
Pssst: I don't have a preference or personal interest in this particular feature.
Pssst... The gradient content in the dialog needs more space.

Yes! thank you. Sorry for not being more clear on my end.

The original post was when I was working on a different computer than my main machine (still an M1 and with a large screen). I went to change the fill color of the artboard on my main machine and it appears as it should. Maybe the other monitor is set differently? It's a 27 inch screen, so there was no shortage of space
-
@Boldline yes, space can be an issue.
-
@vectoradmin Would it make sense to have the color wheel set to the left side or right side of the color bars? That would greatly reduce the height

@Boldline This problem should be fixed in build 1.1.024
