After installing macOS High Sierra 10.13 Keyboard Maestro launched as expected.

I shut down my computer last night.

This morning Keyboard Maestro crashes on launch. The engine is running and macro seem to be working.

From the crash log:

Hi Bob

I think this could be related to color pickers.

Thanks Jimmy

I had RCWeb and Mondrianum.colorPicker.

I moved them to the Trash and that fixed my problem.

I really appreciate your help

Thanks

Bob

My favorite color picker is/was Skala Color. It doesn’t crash anything with 10.13 but it isn’t working either.

Are color pickers generally disabled in 10.13, or do I have to do some something special to make them work (besides moving them to ~/Library/ColorPickers), or is it that the pickers just aren’t compatible yet ?
