Colour Picker

[ingyaningya]

When I want to use the „Eyedrop“ tool to pick up the RGB value of a colour, and zoom in to pick up an individual pixel, the pixels change in colour to go with the shades of the picture. Is there anyway to expand the range of the tool to a greater pixel range to get the basic idea of what the value of the colour is?
Thank you

You need to set the Sample Size to Point Sample on the Eyedropper Tool Bar to sample a single pixel.

if you right click the eye dropper in the image you can change the sample size 1 x1 3x3 5x5 or 10x10 pixels I believe obviously it takes an average colour of the pixels in your sample range.
