I've disabled everything there and whenever in the "Editor" I double click on the "Background color" I still see the default macOS color picker with all the modes and the latest I've worked with preselected

That affect only properties of the Apple color picker.
The picker is automatically displayed by the macOS for color fields.

But then why do I not see any effect?
The config only has "Crayons" selected

but the picker shows a wheel and everything else, and the drop-down list has everything as well

What am I missing?

I just set the options of the Apple color picker. The actual display depends onto the macOS.

Sorry, I don't understand what this means, how can you set the options of the color picker if the color picker ignores these options?

I set the mask for the modes with the method [NSColorPanel setPickerMask:…]
So, looks like an Apple bug in the toolbox.

Oh, ok, it's a bit more clear now. So then my initial understanding was correct — these settings are supposed to change the behavior of the system default color picker, but then they just don't due to some API bug or something
