Photoshop 21.0.3: Problems changing text color
I'm having problems changing text color on the latest version of Photoshop (21.0.3). I'm on Windows 10 1903.
If I'm editing a text box and select text to change color, when I click on a swatch in the Swatches panel from the recent swatches row, the first time it works and then consecutive attempts don't. Not even exiting the text box edit mode and reselecting the text works. It just kind of gets stuck.
It's even more of a problem when swatches from CC Libraries can't be selected when editing text and also for some reason, neither can swatches be picked when the color dialog window is opened and the eyedropper picks the color from the Swatches panel, like every other color dialog can. I'm basically just stuck.

It seems to be working for me here. I can apply swatches to selected text multiple times using recent swatches and swatches from the Libraries panel. Might need more steps to repro or a screen capture of your steps to better troubleshoot.
