Pick a foreground colour using the Color Picker Tool with the pointer . This tool<br />

selects the colour of the point (pixel), which is later used by other <strong>tools</strong>. The tool has<br />

Radius slider to adjust the size of the area that is used to determine an average<br />

colour. The higher the value, the more pixels (points) are in the area, the more<br />

colours are mixed.<br />

Sample merged – to select the colour for a point from any layer.<br />

Pick Mode – to set the actions made by the Color Picker tool:<br />

o Pick only – in a special window (Use info window is enabled) you will<br />

see information on the colour of a particular point (pixel):<br />

When setting points, you can see their colour codes in the Color Picker<br />

dialog.<br />
