color picker

The eyedropper in the Color panel does not work the same as the Color Picker Tool in the Designer Pixel Persona, or in Photo. The Color Picker Tool sets the object color directly.

The eyedropper in the Color panel sets the color into the little color-well that is part of the eyedropper. If you look closely as you move the eyedropper around you will see that color-well change. Then, to apply the color, you click on that color-well or on the eyedropper.

I think the OP's problem is that the colour in the large circle (where the cursor is) does not change as they move the cursor around the screen

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

Hi siapec,

I presume you are referring to the contents of the loupe not showing whats under the cursor correctly? What is your monitor, resolution and display zoom setup you're using (All monitors, not just the current)? Does this happen on a simple document with a single shape?

I've tried this on mine and cannot reproduce it on either monitors:
a  24" 1080p set to 100% and a 27" 4k set to 150% (Primary Display)

I know Windows doesn't always handle scaling the best and somethings can either be really small, or off in scale which is what I'm thinking is happening here. I see you're using the beta - does this happen for you in the release version?
