When i click on layer and assign a layer at this yellow dot with the mouse pointer it activates select color window after
it seems like display color button is there but makes no sense since i am not double clicking
can anyone else reproduce this? i bought a new mouse today so i tried with the old and new

do you know any screen recording software i can use? maybe i can show it better that way
testing this again, it depends what size the properties window is so the location changes
Hej -
As far as I can tell from the SystemInfo, you are only running on one external screen, is that right? What is the resolution and scaling of that screen set to in the Windows Control Panel?
fwiw, I personally find that watching screen grab videos is mostly a waste of time as the resolution typically is so high that I can’t see any details and the mouse tends to fly all over the screen, back and forth and I’d have to watch something 5 times or so to hopefully get what could be described in a words with “step 1: - step 2: etc..”
I understood what you are experiencing, though. No need for a movie…

made some opacity in gimp if its more clear it depends where the select color box position is when i left click once in that area it activates select color window aswell
good 
Hej -
Just wondering - does that part of your comment mean that this is something that recently started behaving the way it does now? If so, can you think of anything that changed on your system?
-wim
the only things i changed in rhino recently: appearance,colors and advanced in options few days ago i believe it started after this
i get that you cannot reproduce this then?
want me to reset rhino maybe?
just discovered it does the same thing at the print color location box
note also when i click once the box highlights aswell after layer selection like as if im double clicking on that area activating it
I’m not able to reproduce this on my system, no. And since 8.19 has been out for a while now, we’d have had many reports of this by now if it were widespread.
Starting with a reset sounds like a good idea.
-wim
nope factory reset then restart rhino still does the same thing
update: i tried this on another computer on a rhino trial version still does the same thing
YES!
and also does this by display color
Funny thought here is that I keep finding these bugs with the “vacuum cleaner bug” project I’m working on its doing it’s magic it seems 
This one is very annoying because when I modell fast it disrupts the flow and have to be mindful where I click.
