Description

Steps to reproduce:
1) Open color picker and enter value not in the palette i.e. 222222, hit enter.

2) Color has now changed accordingly. Now open the color picker a second time. Mouseover -don't click! Another color, red for example.

3) Move your mouse outside the color picker and click somewhere else on the canvas.

4) Open the color picker a third time, while the proper color (222222) is still the drawn color ...

Actual Results:
the value in the text box is actually referring to the last mouseover color value.

Expected Results:
the value in the text box should refer to the currently selected color.

Looking to override this behaviour but it appears the problem may reside in mx.controls.colorPickerClasses.SwatchPanel. I don't believe this source is distributed?

Workaround:
there an mx_internal dropdown property on ColorPicker which is the SwatchPanel, and it looks like if you set the selectedColor property it should reset the textfield.
