I have always just held shift & click on the color spectrum below the color sliders. Pretty quick fix.

thanx! It always happens to me when I do a live trace. I thought it was something I was doing.

that was the worst tip ever. Sry, but in my opinion you didn’t solve it, you showed an alternative way. NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

Bonus Tip: Alternatively you can hold the shift key and click in the color space (or gray space in this instance) and it will rotate through the different color spaces (RGB, CMYK, Grayscale, Brightness Hue Saturation). This will only shave off a couple of seconds, but every shortcut adds up!

Thanks! That’s quite a pesky issue that seems to pop up whenever it feels like annoying someone. Another way that works for me is just opening or clicking on the swatches menu.

Thanks for this simple tip! What I actually do is click on any color from the color palette, but glad to know about this easy fix!

Been there, done that, very annoying. Took me a while to figure it out :)

Thank you. This happens it seems very often if not always with the Gradient in CS3. It’s great to know how to fix it. Very surprising that Adobe hasn’t dealt with it.
