Color picker (eyedropper) doesn't work
Trying to pick a shape's border color to match other on-screen elements. The eyedropper only works in the dialog box. Once outside, the chosen color is black no matter what the eyedropper is over....
I might have found a lead on this one. I was having other problems with another app, and this appears to have solved both problems (for now).
I have two bigger monitors attached to a docked laptop with a very small screen, so I had the Display Scaling Setting (Windows 10) set to 150% on the small screen, but not on the large ones.
So, in the display settings, I set all three monitors to display at 100%, and the color picker appears to be grabbing the right pixels now. I haven't tested this extensively, but, it appears to be working for me for now. However, the text on my laptop screen is now tiny, but, I can grab the right colors.
If this is not the solution, I hope it helps to lead someone there!
