    I'm having a problem where the Editor doesn't display the color picker correctly in the vfx graph. I've been having this problem for some time now, and I can't color my effect correctly because of this. I'm also using the Universal Render Pipeline with both Shader Graph and VFX Graph installed (and some others).

    My symptoms listed below:
    1. Color gradient box is really small
    2. Intensity buttons don't show up
    3. Labels for intensity buttons are squished together.

    I had the same problem and fixed it by updating the Visual Effects Graph in the package manager.

    I have the same issue. It started today (2022.3.0f1) while using Visual Effect Graph (14.0.8). Then I updated Unity to 2022.3.2f1. Nothing has changed. I can't use the color picker in the entire Unity Editor. Please help.

    EDIT: Everything back to normal after deleting the Output Particle Node with the bugged color field.

    EDIT 2: it's back again... unable to use VFX Graph.

    I had this same issue and found this solution else where and it worked for me.
    1. "Mouse Click" at the color selection area on the color node.
    2. "esc" + "space"
