5.4.0 (git 903a173) arm64

When changing color via the color sampler, the color changes perfectly but the advanced color selector never reflects the change. It makes it so that I’ve switched to red but the advanced color selector says I’m still on green so it makes it very hard to make tiny adjustments to the active color.

In case this makes a difference, the color sampler is set to 100% and 1 pixel radius and I’m using the default srgb color space with no filters anywhere, no changes off of the normal layer settings.

I tried the krita-5.4.0-prealpha-903a17397f-master-linux-qt5 appimage on Linux Mint.

Massive Edit: I misunderstood what was happening.

Yes, I do see that problem too. It’s formal bug report time 🙂
