Hi,
Can someone post a screenshot because I don't see a small dot on the
Yosemite color picker.
I am also stuck with one row of colors.

William, I'm with you: no small dot, no resizing -- vertically, at least --
I can make the color picker wider up to a point. Here's a link to a screen

Hi Geoff,
This is my ColorPicker. I only have one visible line.
I am on Yosemite 10.10.1 with LC 6.6.5 on a 21,5 inch iMac.

Well, this is strange. I was checking out the color picker in Yosemite
using TextEdit, which incidentally, doesn't have those Cancel and OK
buttons, but has the dot to pull down the color dock. When I call up the
color picker in LC, I get the same view as Geoff, with two lines of palette
docks and
BTW, I'm on Yosemite 10.10 and LC 6.6.2. Maybe this is a function of
version idiosyncrasies.

Here's mine in 6.6.2, which is the closest I have to 6.6.5. It has two
rows, no matter how I resize it. I wonder if the international aspect is a
factor here?

Yup, it’s a Cocoa thing. Not there in 6.6.x on Yosemite. Magically appears when
you invoke the color picker in 6.7.x.

Bummer! I find that versions 6.7.x are a problem for me, but I’ve also found
that you can use the dot to reveal more swatches of the Color Picker in LC
6.7.1 (rc2), and it will stay “open” for when I go back to my current LC
favorite, 6.6.5.

How much functionality do you want in a color picker? If you just want to allow
a user to pick from a fixed set of colours, it’s easy to grow your own -
cross-platform too. But of course that’s just a small subset of an OS’s picker.

How does the color picker look different to you? I'm on Yosemite and it
looks the same as I remember: color picker choices across the top: color
wheel (default), color sliders, etc.; then the color wheel itself below
that; then the saturation slider below that; then the actual color selected

You’re right of course, I was just overreacting to the ugliness of it. One
