Color Editor not working

I upgraded to 8.2.2. two days ago and no longer have access to the Color Editor. I've tried using the tool in the Color tab as well as the Local Adjustments tab with no success in either instance. When I click on the down arrow to expand the tool nothing happens. I can't see the color wheel or the option for Basic, Advanced or Skin Tone.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software, but still no success. Any idea what could be going wrong?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

  Has to do with the screen ruling which needs to be 96dpi, as per release notes. When floating, the tool often works.

  Thanks. I'll play around with it some more then. I'll go back to the dual monitor setup and see if I had more luck, unfortunately that means that I won't be able to use my Surface Pro as the tools screen with the image on a separate monitor because the Surface Pro has a dpi of 146. Seems like a rather arbitrary requirement for this specific tool.
  
  Incidentally, I tried to make it work by using it as a floating tool, and it did work once, but I could never replicate that success.

  Stephen,
  
  Colour wheel works for me and I'm set to 1920x1200 and using 32bit colour.
