You can choose a foreground or background color from any open image, or from any color within Corel PaintShop Pro (such as a color on a toolbar). This feature is useful when you want to use the color of a specific icon, or when you want to match the Windows desktop colors. If you have Windows 2000 or a later version of Windows, you can choose a color from other applications (such as a color displayed in a word processor).

You can also choose a color from the image while using brush tools, such as the Paint Brush or the Eraser tool, by holding down Ctrl and clicking in the image to choose a foreground color or right-clicking to choose a background color.
When the Color Picker is open, you can choose a color from any open image regardless of the currently selected tool.

Hold down Ctrl, and position your pointer over the area of the desktop that has the color you want. |
When positioned over areas that can be sampled, a small window follows the pointer and indicates the RGB value of the color you are sampling.
