Clicking the swatch drop down opens the different swatch color options.
Please update with these shortcut key options:
Shift + clicking the swatch drop down opens the Color Mixer options.
Option + clicking the swatch drop down opens the gradient options.
Command + clicking the swatch drop down opens the pattern options.An error occurred while saving the comment John Gonzales commentedThe control bar fill and stroke options are only changing the color that is active on the vertical toolbar not per the control fill or stroke options. On the control bar on the left is the fill swatch and on the right is the stroke swatch. When I try to change the color from the control bar it is not changing per the left fill swatch or the right stroke swatch but instead it is changing per what is active in the vertical toolbar. If the fill color is active in the vertical toolbar and I select the stroke color from the control bar it changes the fill color instead of the stroke color. If the stroke color is active in the toolbar and I select the fill color from the control bar it changes the stroke color instead of the fill color. Does this help you all understand that it does not work and you still have not fixed it.

An error occurred while saving the comment John Gonzales commentedThis still does not work properly. Originally when you did not hold the shift key it would bring up the swatch options but if you held the shift key it would bring up the color options. Now if you do not hold the shift key it does not open the swatch options but instead opens the last option.
HOW IT USED TO WORK.
Not pressing the shift key while clicking the control bar fill or stroke = swatch options
Pressing the shift key while clicking the control bar fill or stroke = color optionsAn error occurred while saving the comment John Gonzales commentedDo I need to make this a new bug or do you all understand that the control bar fill and stroke color options still do not work correctly like they used to. Maybe you all do not understand what is going on. On the control bar on the left is the fill swatch and on the right is the stroke swatch. When I try to change the color from the control bar it is not changing per the left fill swatch or the right stroke swatch but instead it is changing per what is active in the vertical toolbar. If the fill color is active in the vertical toolbar and I select the stroke color from the control bar it changes the fill color instead of the stroke color.

An error occurred while saving the comment John Gonzales commentedI just did a new illustrator update on Friday November 22 and it did not fix this bug.
An error occurred while saving the comment John Gonzales commentedWhile ya'll are at it can you make the functions of the control bar swatch options and the toolbar swatch options work the same when you click on either one so if I am close to the bottom of the screen I can select the swatches from the toolbar but if I am at the top of the screen I can select the swatches from the control bar and get the same function options.
Clicking the swatch drop down opens the different swatch color options.
Shift + clicking the swatch drop down opens the Color Mixer options.
Option + clicking the swatch drop down opens the gradient options.
Command + clicking the swatch drop down opens the pattern options.
Thank youAn error occurred while saving the comment John Gonzales commentedI installed the latest beta and after installing illustrator 25 29.0 and it also does not work in the beta.
The new illustrator 25 29.0 is worse. When I shift + click a swatch in the control bar and change the color it does not change the color of the swatch I am selecting but instead is changing the color of the swatch that is active in the toolbar. It is so bad that it doesn't matter what swatch I am shift + clicking, the fill swatch or the stroke swatch, in the control bar because it is changing only the swatch that is active in the toolbar.An error occurred while saving the comment John Gonzales commentedThe new illustrator 25 29.0 is worse.

An error occurred while saving the comment John Gonzales commentedIf I was an expert I would make it work so that
clicking the swatch drop down in the control bar would open the swatches
Shift + clicking the swatch drop down in the control bar would open the Color Mixer
Option + clicking the swatch drop down in the control bar would open the gradient
Command + clicking the swatch drop down in the control bar would open the patterns

CAN YOU ALSO ADD
pressing the option key while clicking the control bar fill or stroke = gradient options
pressing the command key while clicking the control bar fill or stroke = pattern options
