The Eyedropper tool in the Color palette allows you to quickly sample color from anywhere on your monitor. It even works in other windows and other applications that might be open in the background. For example, the Eyedropper allows you to match the color of text selected in your Web page with a color in an open Photoshop document or Illustrator logo.
Select the Eyedropper tool in the Color palette and place your mouse pointer over the color you want to sample (Figure 69). When you see a preview of the sampled color in the top left corner of the Color palette, click to sample the color to apply it to your selection. Figure 69. Use the Eyedropper to sample color anywhere on your screen. |
