beta 8.2.0: attrui not working properly for setting colors

Rivanni

When an attrui object is used to set a color of an object this doesn't work properly.
I noticed this with all the color settings for ezdac~ , ezadc~, gain~, function and panel, but I guess this is a general problem.

When you click on the box to select a color, the color window does open but when you pick a color nothing happens.
If you switch to dynamic colors, you can pick a color from the list and this color is used.
(As a side note, for some reason the bgfillcolor of the panel does not allow to choose dynamic colors, while you can in the inspector.)

When a dynamic color is set or a color is set in the inspector or using a message, then the problem doesn't occur anymore. So only when the color is a default object color, the attrui color picker doesn't work.

You can test the patch below or take a look at the appearance tab in the help patches for ezadc~ and ezdac~.
Note that setting the bgcolor works fine here because a color was already set in the inspector. Black is not the default bgcolor.
