Scene Color Selector Bug

[Bjoershol]

Hi,

I've had some problems setting colours in my materials lately. Not sure when the problem started occurring.

Basically, when I try to adjust the colour in a material, it kind of locks in place or will adjust the hue as I'm changing the saturation.
As an example if I try to increase the saturation the hue will change from red to more orange as I go higher.

I've tried switching between Scene and Display Referred thinking it might have something to do with it, but doesn't make a difference.

Hi,

Do you refer to Corona Color Picker?
Can you please attach some screenshots, or even better, screen video/gif capture of what exactly you are doing and what exactly you get?
This will help understand the issue better.

Thanks for the quick reply! I guess that's what it's called, wasn't sure because it just says "scene color selector".

Will attach a recording here.

One thing I'm seeing in max 2021 is that sometimes, when picking the color using one of the gradient sliders it will not correctly register the click and keeps changing.

But, since you seem to be using max 2024 and the standard color picker, there seems to be another problem with the new color picker, see here:

You might get a better experience using the corona picker, here's how to use it:

Oh! Yeah that solves my problem and works a lot better. Didn't know you had to manually switch to use it, thank you!
