Color Picker Shortcut in Affinity Photo

[saturngod]

What shortcut can I use for Color Picker ? Now , it's very troublesome. Need to select the color picker and then click the color again. And then draw a brush. Drawing brush on face is very hard without shortcut with color picker shortcut.

Hold the options (alt) key pressed and move your mouse. See also the shortcuts at the bottom left if the Brush tool has been selected.

Thanks. 

 

- Select Brush

- Hold Alt and click the mouse

 

After that I can select the color

Any reason why this doesn't also work with the paint bucket?

Seconded. Why is this not possible while in the fill tool?

Do you mean the Flood Fill Tool or something else? If that tool, are you having problems using or setting a keyboard shortcut for it or something else?

When I’m in the fill tool, I would expect holding the option key to switch to the eyedropper just like it does when you’re in the brush too. It would be especially handy.

Unfortunately, it does not work like that.

You are correct. This is intended as a suggestion to the Affinity team.
