The Color panel pops up when you click on stroke/fill selector
The Color panel pops up every time you click on the stroke or fill selectors. There is no way to disable this panel from popping up, even if you close it, it will open and come to the forefront. Many of us don't need or use the color panel; we use the swatches or other panel. Why is this panel being forced on those of us who don't use/want it?

It is **** annoying in deed. Adobe, pls fix it. The solution I implemented is, just parked the **** color panel in the bottom right corner and set it minimized, so it just do its buggy thing as least disturbing as possible and I soon got used to it being opening automatically as a thin bar on the bottom right, if you cant beat it, learn to live with it.

Right click the color panel and deselect "auto-show hidden panels." Worked for me..." -

Please find a way to fix this issue. The color palette pop-up is more annoying than helpful. Users should have the ability to choose the layout of their workspace.

When I click on the stroke selector, I would like the swatches panel to open, specifically the custom swatches I have created as a set which are persistent.
I don't want the colour picking panel to pop up, ever.
The colour picking panel could offer a change in setting: "Toggle: open swatch panel instead, when picking colours"
It would then be easy to switch it back and forth if it was required, right within the panel that had just opened, which seems intuitive. -

Exactly! I'm developing a really hatred for this color panel. I am visually impaired and keep my computer and programs settings so everything is very large. This often really lessens my work space. But i deal, because otherwise i can't see comfortably.
So this **** extra panel that I cannot stop from popping up takes up a HUGE chunk of my screen and seriously hinders my work. As a half blind professional illustrator, please, please fix this.

I was experiencing what I believe to be the same issue. Every time I would click on the stroke/fill selector to toggle between them... the color selector would pop up right in my face. I run two monitors and had the color selector and a few other panels on my second monitor to make room for the art board. I moved the color selector panel back into the primary monitor (same as primary Illustrator toolbars) and now I can toggle between stroke and fill without anything popping up. Hope this helps!

This "feature" is so annoying. If I want this to be a part of my workspace, please let me choose it like I do with the other panels/palettes. It usually pops up exactly over what I need to be looking at.

When you click on the color picker on the left, the Color Window forces itself open on the right, displacing windows you're actually using.
There needs to be a way to prevent windows from opening, because this and other window pop-ups are seriously inhibiting my workflow. Every 5-10 minutes, I have to go over and clear 1-3 pointless windows just so that I can see the windows I need. FIX THIS, PLEASE.

I don't use the color panel and I never will. I don't want it on my screen ever. But whenever I click between fill or stroke, the color panel pops up. So my only choice is to always have it on my screen, overriding other panels that I prefer. Please stop forcing this annoying panel on us and fix this bug!
