Why do you still hold activation keys while picking a color?

Same with me, it gets hang all the time.

I think I have the same issue, but it might be different. It doesn’t happen often though, and it does eventually close and enter the color into the clipboard.

I'll add that for me, it happens even if I've released the keys for half to a full second. Could just be general lag but I've had it happen on multiple systems.

Can you tell me why are you holding activation key while picking? Activation key is there to open color picker only, there is no need to keep it pressed.
