Colour picker moves by itself

Tue Feb 21, 2017 1:12 pm
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jbCGsfEFHg Someone why is this happening? I'm using Krita 3.1.2, Linux Mint 18 with i3-wm. Nvidia driver: 375.26. This is happening with and without a tablet (Intuos Pen and Touch).

sorry, it says "This video is unavailable.

Sorry about that."

can you try uploading it again, or posting it somewhere else?

edit: it works now

Uh ... sorry, it was set as "private". It should work now.

When I saw the video, I thought you might be accidentally touching your tablet with your hand. I tried to do that with my Intuos Pen and Touch tablet but I could not duplicate what was happening in your video..

You say it happens with and without the tablet. Did you actually disconnect the tablet from your computer and try it with just the mouse? Can you try a different mouse?

Is there any other device connected to your computer that might be giving input signals, either via USB or Bluetooth?

Do you get similar problems with any other tablet or mouse input graphics application?

Re: Colour picker moves by itself  Topic is solved

I can confirm that, but it only occurs if the image color space is set to CMYK.

While the "Advanced Color Selector" docker follow the document color space, the popup Color Selector doesn't.
It feels like Krita tries to convert the RGB color you picked on the popup Color Selector to the CMYK color space, but executes the function recursively.
In some versions before, the developers enabled color correction in the popup Color Selector, but it brought some glitches, so they brought back the old one.

As a work around, you can set the Advanced Color Selector to use a different color space than the document.
But in consequence, you will not be sure the exact color you are selecting.

Thank you for this answer. Changing model to RGB solve the problem.

Hi! i'm having the same issue when i check "color selector uses a different color space than the image" at configure krita -> Color selector settings -> and set it to CMYK. This feature would be great for a project i'm working on.
I noticed that this behaviour only occurs when i try to pick the color using the popup pallet. When i pick it directly from the advanced color picker it seems to work fine.

I can confirm I'm getting this issue as well


The file is in CMYK 8bit (profile Chemical proof)

the popup palette keeps moving
