Description
Issue type
UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)
Description with steps to reproduce
Add a song text to a note. Click the text. Click the "Properties" tab. Click "Show more" Click on one off the frames button. Click on "Border color" or "Fill color". For the very first time the color picker opens in the foreground. On all subsequent actions the color picker opens in the background of the MuseScore window and must be made visible with a click on the MuseScore icon in the task bar.
