Hi all 👋

Reminder: The release candidate for Gutenberg Version 18.5 is scheduled for next Friday (May 31st). So anything that is supposed to make it into WordPress 6.6 must be merged by then.

Please raise any important issues that need additional attention :)

@richtabor @scruffian, while testing out the new color presets on trunk, I noticed a couple of bugs, so I've filed issues for them:

• Color Presets: Scrollbar is unexpectedly present in color preset previews #61840
• Color Presets: Unexpected scroll to color presets when selecting a style variation #61841

I didn't get a chance to look more closely at the code since I'm in the middle of travelling this week (so I'll also be slow to respond), but hopefully those issues might help any debugging, if these ones haven't already been flagged 🙂

Hi @andrewserong, thanks for the flagging this out. Just to add in the context,

• Color Presets: Scrollbar is unexpectedly present in color preset previews #61840

The above is already reported and actively worked on here - #61759. It has a PR already raised for the same - #61617, hoping it can be fixed soon.

Thank You ✨.

With 6.6 out in the open, closing this iteration issue out. Let's open a next iteration issue for 6.7 for additional bug fixes and refinements.
