The colorpicker , after picking a color, will give a bang out of its right outlet upon mouse release. This indicates that it believes it's panel has closed, which is incorrect.

After this happens, it doesn't update according to incoming color data, unless it's forced to acknowledge that its panel is open by sending it a bang.

However, I don't want to always send it bangs when an updated color is sent, cause I don't want it to re-open the panel when it was ACTUALLY closed.

So, how do I determine when a colorpicker panel is ACTUALLY open?

Do you know, I'm sure I remember it working like that, where you have to reopen the colour selection panel to actually input anything between clicks, but I just tried it and it seems to update now between clicks. Have you updated to latest version?

I'm running Live 10.0.2b7 with Max 8.0.0 (0e799b1) on Sierra and can also reproduce this problem!
