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....

One workaround if you use SnagIT: Snip the color you're wanting to replicate. Open the snip in SnagIT and open the Fill tool - it has an eyedropper... Use the eyedropper and select the desired color, and then note the hex value. In SL, select the Drawing/Object you want to recolor, then select "More Fill Colors." Doublecheck that you're in the correct mode (RGB, hex, etc.) and then type in the #----- color code from SnagIT.
Yeah, it's cumbersome, but it works. And it's easier than disconnecting all the monitors.

Thanks Joe, I agree about not disconnecting monitors. Let's just hope it is a bug that articulate can just fix soon. :)
