[Qgis-user] Color Picker Only Partially Opens

Thanks everyone for the input (love the Q user group).  I hadn’t tested this issue on versions after 3.28.8 until this morning.  I installed 3.30.3 and 3.32.0 today and can report that the issue is partially resolved in version 3.30.3 where the first click now shows the entire color wheel but not the color picker options at the bottom of the dialog box.  Version 3.32.0 has totally resolved the issue.

By the way, I use a single wide-format monitor (Dell U4919DW) so the issue was not mixed DPI screens as in Frank’s case.

Thanks to Nyall or whomever among the developers created the fix!  The Q team rocks as always!

Tim

Hi,
I can confirm the issue. It's the same with me. I have to click two times for the color selector to show entirely. I'm using 3.28 version. I have two monitors of the same resolution and make. On my laptop is the same.

Is this reproducible on versions 3.30 or later? A fix was added in 3.30 which should address this.

Hi Tim,

I cannot replicate the issue on my Windows 11 machine (OSGeo4W Installer w QGIS 3.28), but I have all kinds of scaling / UI issues when using mixed DPI screens. I.e. when using my Laptops HiRes Screen and attach a normal FullHD-Monitor, things can get all wonky … do you have by any chance this kind of setup?

Betreff: [Qgis-user] FW: Color Picker Only Partially Opens

Greetings QGIS Users,

I have a long-standing issue with the color picker dialog box in QGIS – all versions (running on Windows 11, but issue has been encountered on various Windows versions) and I’m wondering if there is a setting or some other fix to resolve this.  The issue is that when I click on the down arrow on the color settings dialog in the Layer Styling panel the color picker dialog box only partially opens (image on the left).  I have to click twice more to close and then reopen the color picker dialog box to get it to fully open (image on the right).  This happens the first time I attempt to open the dialog box after performing another function.  If I remain in the same layer and test other colors the dialog will open fully with one click.   This seems minor but when I’m setting up colors for lots of new layers or matching colors to those of other features within a project, where the “Pick Color” function is really handy, it gets pretty tedious.  I suspect this is a Windows issue but any thoughts about the issue and how to resolve it would be appreciated.

Tim
