+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1401614 +++

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0
Build ID: 20170918210324

Steps to reproduce:

Hello and thank you by advance for looking into this bug!

On Windows 10 - Firefox version 56.0 beta (same bug on stable version 55)

- In Firefox, right click anywhere and "Inspect element"
- On the CSS part, click on any color circle to open the color picker (any CSS property that has a HEX or RGB code)
- Use the eyedrop tool and select any color.
- Open the color picker again.
- Click anywhere inside the color picker to change the color.
- Click again in some place else to change the color another time.


Actual results:

After using the eyedrop tool, if I want to change the color and open the color picker, the first change of color works properly. 
The second one (and all the further changes) :
-is not applied on the selected element on the page. 
-the HEX or RGB code on the inspector's CSS doesn't change.

I have to close the color picker to be able to try another color.
The problem applies to all colors on the page and stays untill I reboot Firefox.


Expected results:

I used to be able to pick a color with the eyedrop tool and then change it as many times as I wanted using the color picker. 
- the changes I make should show on the page. 
- the HEX or RGB code should change in the CSS.

Thank you for filing Agnes. I think this is a duplicate of bug 1365053 which was fixed in Firefox 57.
