On Windows, Eclipse brings up the default Windows color selector when the color swatch next to a CSS color property is clicked. This is a modal dialog that needs to be clicked away. For me, this is a nuisance because I frequently accidentally click this, and (IMO) this form of color selection is inappropriate for the web. I'd like to disable this feature.

Is there any way to disable this feature in Eclipse?

I'm using Eclipse 2025-06, but this feature has been around for a while.

    This feature seems first to be introduced in WildWebDeveloper (see this pull request) and then became a general LSP4E feature (see here). It seems to be hard-coded. Please consider to provide a pull request to LSP4E. Commented Sep 7 at 16:02
