Hi Eric

The Cancel and OK buttons on the Color picker pane seem to have gone? Where you set custom colors under the "Other" tab.

Bonjour George,

Yes, it is a system change on macOS.

Cordialement.

But without the OK button you can't register a custom colour? Or at least i haven't found out how to do it!

Choose a colour and drag the square at the bottom-left on the list of small square at the right-bottom.

OK - I tried that and it causes RealCADD to crash and quit immediately. Tried several times with a completely new plan, with the same result.

With RealCADD 5.02 on Catalina I don't have problem except if I don't close the colour picker before quitting RealCADD.

Hi Eric

This is what happens for me (on Big Sur):

Instant crash!

Doesn't matter if it is fill or stroke – or which color picker I choose.

George,

I have tried on Big Sur and I don't have problem :

Can you try the color picker on another app like Pages for example?
And send me the crash report?

Thanks

Hi Eric

OK – I tried the color picker on Pages and it was fine. Then I tried it on RealCADD and it was also fine!!

I binned all the colors and tried it again on RealCADD – and it was still fine.

I binned all the colors again and did a re-start. Without using the color picker on any other program, I opened RealCADD and tried the color picker. It crashed.

So – it would seem that it only produces a crash if it hasn't been "initialized" in some way by another program.

I'll email the Crash Report.

If you ask me (which nobody is of course!), I think Apple have made a total fuck-up of the color picker – not intuitive at all!! Took me forever to work out how to use it.

Cheers -- George

George,

I can't crash it when the color picker is called first by RealCADD.

I will ask on the Xojo forum.

Thanks.
