When using the RGB color picker, the background colors of the sliders still have CMY colors. ![30%20AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/chroma_q/original/1X/23f0c869c1044b535e257d3460f8abf15d8487c3.png) ---

Hi Steven, I am afraid you are miss understanding what Vista is visually showing you there. In your screenshot you have RGB at full (which equals white). What that GUI is showing you is that if you reduce the amount of red you will create cyan. If you reduce green you will end up at magenta… etc etc. If you put RGB at 0 you will see that they then “correctly” show red, green and blue as you initially expected. Thanks for bug hunting, but I am afraid this is’nt one 😛 ---
