!!BUG REPORT!! Changing colour via Hex code in Gradient Mesh crashes PL

[Vivi_Ram]

Hello: I wanted to create a simply mesh gradient. Here's how to reproduce the crash:

1. Open a new multipage document
2. Create a full-page mesh gradient
3. Click on one of the colour nodes
4. Double click the colour box in the editor to open the editor window
5. Change the hex code

CRASH.

I can confirm that crash happens only in Windows version. No problem in macOS.
It happens only if open full sized color editor from docked Color Editor Panel (List).
It don't depends of Image mode or document mode or pages amount.
It happens only with Mesh Gradient. No problem with normal vector objects.

P.S. Can you upload larger sized videos in future? 720p? It is real pain to watch low resolution videos with barely visible details.

Hey, yes: I will upload 720p videos going forward. Imgur makes it a pain sometimes to upload larger videos. I might just upload to google drive and link back here. Thanks for confirming the crash @Shijan.

Yep, Google drive probably the best option for quick videos.
I used Imgur earlier to upload forum images, because it was fast and easy and because allowed to show original untouched image. But few months ago they changed policy and don't keep original images for free accounts. All uploaded images became extremely compressed and ugly looking. Same could be with videos.

Usually I don't need a video at all. I prefer a sample document and a description.
The description in this case could be:

- Create a new document
- Create a mesh gradient layer
- Select a node of the mesh gradient layer
- Open "View > Lists > Color Editor" and double-click the foreground color to edit the node color
- Enter a HTML color code.
-> Crash

The important part in your bug report, is that you are using "View > Lists > Color Editor". If you double-click the color in the Tool Settings, it should work fine.

[Vivi_Ram]

Sure thing: No problem. Will provide you reports in that format going forward.

Just to be clear: That's the way I prefer it, but every bug report is better than no bug report.

Understand. I usually attach recording in case my description is unclear.
