MuseScore crashes to desktop when pressing ESC whilst picking a screen color in the color picker

Edit: I've reported this on github.


Hello team,
I discovered a bug when cancelling picking a screen color in the color picker.
Hope you can fix it in the next version.

Thank you very much!

Issue type

Crash

Bug description

I want to pick a Fill Color for a Staff Text box in my score.
I go to its properties, and click "Fill Color". The color picker pops up.
I click "Pick a screen color". The cursor changes to a big "+" sign, for picking any color on the screen. Also, beneath the "Pick Screen Color" button a notice appears, saying: "Cursor at xxx yyy; Press ESC to cancel".
I regret, I don't want to pick any color - I want to cancel. I click ESC, the "+" cursor stays as it is (I can still move the cursor freely), but something weird happens: In the "Properties" palette, most of the buttons disappear, and after 1-2 seconds the whole MuseScore app crashes and closes without any message.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open any score.
  2. Add a Staff Text and click it.
  3. In the properties sidebar click "> show more", then click "Fill color".
  4. In the color picker, click "Pick Screen Color".
  5. Press ESC on your keyboard.

Severity

Minor.
