Color picker / Eyedropper is 1 pixel off

[jubarbie]

Hi,

I have an annoying bug that I already had on the V1

The eyedropper is 1 pixel off as you can see on the video => focus on the color that we see on the eyedropper pixel preview and the color that is really picked on the color panel.

I'm reposting a image I create to post on this forum so you can undestand. As you can see the image is from V1 but the video is from V2.

I'm running Affinity Designer 2.0.4 on a Macbook pro 2020 Intel running MacOS Ventura 13.3

FWIW I can't duplicate this on macOS

I can duplicate this on occasion. I think it has to do with the zoom level of what your viewing and what the dropper is actually capturing. I can even get the dropper to sample the anti-aliased color when it doesn't actually show in the magnifier.

Hi @jubarbie,

This issue is already logged with the Dev team to resolve.  

I've left a link on the report back to this thread, so we can update you when it's been resolved.

@stokerg Yes that is what a moderator told me a year ago when I posted it on this forum.

So the dev team was aware a year ago...

Meanwhile a new major version came out (V2)... with the same bug...
