AC 14 Can't Change Color

Anonymous

I just installed AC 14 and noticed that when I go to change the background color after I select a color and hit OK in the color picker window, the window disappears and nothing happens. This also happens when trying to change pen colors or any other color option. Please help.

Mac or Win? System? What exactly is happening? Screen shots might help.

I have a Mac, running 10.5.8. I also installed the latest Hotfix but the problem is still there.

Attached is a screen shoot. When I hit OK, the Grids & Background window closes completely and the background has not changes. I have the same problem when trying to change pen colors and when changing the Work Environment color preferences.

AC has been having troubles with the MAC color picker before: www.archicadwiki.com/Bugs/MacColorPickerCrash

Wow, I deleted the NSColorPanelSwatches.plist file and now it works.

Thanks, I don't think I would have figured that one out on my own.
