Unable to change layer color by clicking the little square

Hi, I recently switch to Rhino 8 and when I try to change the color of a layer by clicking on the little colored square beside the layer name nothing happens. I have to click with the left button and select “properties” and then “color”. Funny thing is that it happens only on certain random layer.
Anyone can tell me why?

Thank you
Michele

I’m having this problem. Any discussions or guesses as to why this started happening? I’ve been on rhino 8 since it was first released and this is a recent occurrence. Possibly since the last update. I created a new layer and moved the items in the previous non function color layer and the color started working, however, it did stop after a bit of time once I had moved the items to that layer. It is just one layer for me.

@estontw pls run _SystemInfo and post back the results.

@ufficio.tecnico2 is this still happening for you as well? pls also run _SystemInfo and post back the results.
