InDesign Eyedropper Tool Problem or Bug?
I am running InDesign CS3 on Snow Leopard.
Issue: I working merrily on my way in a project when all of a sudden the Eyedropper Tool blitzes out on me by not copying text attributes correctly.
Though I cannot replicate the problem at will it happens maybe once every two weeks or so without warning.
100% of the time, when it happens, the text that I want to apply the attributes to retains the original font but an black outline is applied. It makes me think that I inerrantly toggled some control, but cannot what.
I reboot—nothing
Note: I do use stylesheets and manage them well.
When I create a new document the eyedropper works fine. Maybe it in inherent in a worked over document?
Any one sun inthis problem?

before loading a video
can you please do these steps?
1) load a color image
2) add a color balance adjustmament layer (don't close it)
3) use the eyedropper in Current layer mode
4) sample a color , with the eyedropper
5) move the color balance slider and watch the color palette
after close the image ->
1) load a color image
2) add a color balance adjustmament layer (don't close it)
3) use the eyedropper in All layers mode
4) sample a color , with the eyedropper
5) move the color balance slider and watch the color palette
can you please check it?
thanks Kelly

Hi,
I've got a problem with Illustrator's Eyedropper Tool that neither my teacher nor Google was able to solve. When I use it to copy a color over to a different part of the image, the copied color is slightly off (I verified this using the color sampler in photoshop). I already made sure that the raster sample size is set to "point sample" so I know it's not because it's sampling from too wide of an area. This only happens on my school's Mac, it works fine on my own Mac. However, when I start a document at school and open it on my own Mac, it has the same problem. When I open a new document on my own Mac there is no problem. Is it something with the 'proof setup'? I need it to make an illustration of a picture using mesh tool. This problem has me stumped - any ideas, please?
I included an example. I used the point sample where my mouse pointer is to fill the circle.thanks for the response
at school the color settings are Prepress 2
my settings are: North American General Purpose 2
I already tried changing that but still can't get the colors right.
I had the same problem with an illustration of a bell pepper we had to make using the mesh tool
I couldn't get the right shade of orange from the original bell pepper image when I tried to reproduce it with the mesh tool
The resulting shade of orange I get from using the eyedropper tool varies depending on which part of the bell pepper I use as its source, although it's the same shade of orange everywhere
Also, it's always darker than it should be, never lighter
here the image is in cmyk and the illustrator file is too, so I don't think that is the problem -
How do I get my Aperture eyedropper tool back?
I'm at my wit's end! I've lost my Aperture eyedropper tools--and my mind!
I installed the Aperture 3 Trial hoping the new version might resolve whatever corruption is causing my "lost eyedropper tool" problem, but alas, the issue persists.
Here's the deal: Sometime after Snow Leopard, my Aperture 2 no longer has any "eyedroppers". This means that I can't use the eyedropper to set a white balance or a custom tint, etc. When I select the eyedropper, I see a brief "flash" in the display (kind of like a very brief ghost loupe), but the eyedropper itself never appears. I only have the arrow tool and clicking on the image does nothing.
I used the eyedropper frequently during the last months, then at some time it just disappeared.
I hoped maybe Aperture 3 would make the problem go away, but alas, it persists in 3 as well as in 2.
I tried trashing several Adjustment presets in user/library/application support/Aperture and the general .plist file in Preferences and restarting. No change.
I've tried running Aperture with just my MacBookPro and no monitor. No change.
I've tried using the sidebar Adujstments panel and not the HUD. No change.
Oh, and my permissions and directory are in good shape.
Obviously I can manually set the white balance, etc, but I sure would like to have the eyedropper back as a starting point!
I've Googled but can't find any help anywhere. Can any of you smart folks please help me?Thanks, MacDLS. When I login as a new user, I have the eyedropper.
So that suggests a corrupted preference, but I've trashed every preference file I can find and still can't get an eyedropper back when I'm logged into my account.

Trouble Sampling Colors with Eyedropper Tool: InDesign CS5
Hey everyone,
My name is Quin, and I've used InDesign CS5 for the past few years and am working on a magazine layout for the first time. I'm suddenly having a really difficult time getting the eye-dropper tool to extract color samples from images i've placed in my layout. These are either jpeg or PDF images. If I recall correctly, in my past use of the program, i could simply click the eyedropper tool in an image and get my color sample – but suddenly, i'm having trouble getting it to sample color/make a color swatch.
I tried double clicking the tool and excluding everything i wouldn't want it to sample. Tried locking/unlocking layers, tried making sure the image frame itself is selected, tried holding down option, tried trashing the preferences (using a 2012 MacBook Air with the latest version of OS X Mountain Lion)… most of the time when i attempt to sample a color, nothing shows up in the fill box, except the classic diaognal red line over white.
The exception is when i use the eyedropper to sample non-image base things i've already filled, like a retangle, it picks up the color fine. So it's likely image specific. Is there something really obvious that i'm missing? It's frustrating because i simply want to sample colors to get a rough idea for text colors and headlines that can match images, and there doesn't seem to be a quick way to do this…
Thanks so much for the help!
-QuinQuin, I just had a eureka moment! I was having the exact same problem, unable to sample color from images with the eyedropper tool, and when I sampled text to apply formatting, it strangely applied a black rule around the new text. The problem was intermittent, with the tool both working and not working within the same document. I finally realized the tool was misbehaving when sampling an item on the document, but worked fine when sampling images or text on the pasteboard.
So, the document I'm working on is an ad with a 1pt rule around the border. I have the border on it's own layer at the top level, and locked, so I can select items on the ad without the border getting in the way. What I found is, even though it's locked, the eyedropper tool is sampling the border from that layer!
I tried turning off stroke settings in the eyedropper options just gave my text a fill of 'none.' Turning off both stroke and fill settings had no effect on the new text at all. I tried unlocking the layer and just locking the border on it's own, but it still picked up the formatting from the border.
The only thing that worked is to hide the layer! Turn off the layer 'eyeball' and see if that works for you. -
I'm using Illustrator CS6 16.0.3 on Windows and have problem with eyedropper. When i hold shift and try to assign color from somewhere the foreground swatch is updated but the color of selected object itself stays the same. I work with photoreferences and it brings me a lot of discomfort so i'm planning to revert to CS5 until it's resolved.
I know that this is bug of the program itself and it was fixed on Mac several months ago with 16.0.4 update but the Windows update is still missing so the question is: when are we going to recieve this so much needed update?
Seriously, Adobe, you're failing me.I can ya'll exactly what's going on here, and yes, I think it's a dumb CS6 bug. Never happened to me before CS6. You might have noticed that sometimes the eyedropper tool works just fine and picks up the colors, and sometimes it doesn't. Here's the answer.
The eyedropper tool wont apply colors to groups of shapes, even if there is only one shape in that group. Don't ask me why, but that's the reason. Took me a while to find out. And it seems that if you use the shape building tool in any way it makes the object become a group... and then the eyedropper tool doesn't work properly again.
There are three basic temporary fixes:
- Go into your group and change elements individually
- Use the direct selection tool and select objects to color them individually
- "Ungroup" the object (even if it's only one object!) and eyedrop to your hearts content
They take a bit more time, but at least you can get the colors you want. -
Problem: eyedropper tool gives me darker color
Hi all, I hope someone can help me with my problem. I'm on motion 3.0.2 that i have been using for a while but now I have a problem I can't find an answer to. For the past months, the eyedropper tool of any color property and effects gives me a darker color than what I click on. It's the same color but darker, a real hassle when trying to match two colors. Help anyone? Thanks
I've noticed this at times. I have no solution.

Eyedropper tool in InDesign toolbox
Anybody know why the Eyedropper tool isn't appearing in my Toolbox? New InDesign user and can't figure it out.
Maybe is hidden under measure tool. Click into the right-down corner of
measure tool, were is a very small triangle. Now you can see the eyedropper
tool.

Problem with Eyedropper Tool in CS5
I have used many versions of PS but can not figure this one out. When using the Eyedropper Tool in CS5 it does NOT pick up a color when I click on that color...the Foreground and Background colors remain black and white. Any suggestions?
Ok...I figured it out.

Shortcut eyedropper from brush tool problem
Just yesterday, when I have my brush tool selected, and I press Option[Mac], the eyedropper tool will appear, but now, the Smooth tool shows up.
Does anyone know how to revert back? I'm on a Mac using Illustrator CS5.5.
This is annoying me especially since i'm painting in illus and needs to select colours from a image using the eyedropper rather than from the swatch each time.
Help please..Hi Kristy,
This may or may not be the case, but is it possible you accidently switched to using the Blob Brush tool?
According to the Illustrator Default Keyboard Shortcuts, pressing Option while using the Blob Brush tool will switch to the Smooth tool.
This is assuming you haven't adjusted your default shortcuts.

Eyedropper tool doesn't work in Index Mode
When I am in Index mode, and I bring up the color table, the eyedropper tool doesn't work unless I right-click and choose one of the point sample averages. And even then, it doesn't always work unless I hit some combination of Shift-control-option-command. I'm still not sure what the combination is since it seems to differ a little depending on Photoshop's mood.
I can remember there was this problem a couple of versions back, and Adobe fixed it after about a year or so.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks, ChuckThanks for the temporary solution. The is the same bug was in CS3 then fixed ic CS4. Now it's back in CS5.
I've only had this bug with Macs not PCs. "YES IT'S A BUG!" Question: Is there anybody from Adobe who reads this? Can someone at adobe please tell us when this Mac bug will be fixed? For a premium product at such a price, Photoshop shouldn't have a bug like this. Adobe should be more responsive! Think of the difficulty people like me who write textbooks must have. To give one technique for a PC and then a workaround technique for a MAC. I implore anyone who is experiencing this problem to contact Adobe & let them know about it! Here's a link to their bug report page. https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform Thanks everyone (for letting me vent). Frederick -
Eyedropper tool - Makes color RGB from CMYK image.
I made an image CMYK in photostop, and then placed it in an indesign file. When I used the eyedropper tool to grab a color from that graphic, the eyedropper tool made that color RGB. Our printer only accepts CMYK. So, I am a bit confused. How can I fix this? Or will this be a non-issue?
ThanksI can think of three possibilities for what happened.
If the image is missing (check the links panel) the eydropper is sampling the RGB screen preview.
If you pasted the image from Photoshop instead of Placing it, you only pasted the low resolution RGB screen preview, and you have more problems than the eyedropper color.
If you opened the color picker by double-clicking on the color box, then said OK while the cursor was in one of the RGB fields (the default state), the color was converted from CMYK to RGB.
The only time RGB is a non-issue is when you are outputting on a RGB device (screen or desktop printer). If the printer said he wants CMYK you need to give him CMYK, or pay him to fix it.

Three-Way Color Corrector Eyedropper Tool Not Working on Second Display in OSX Maverick
Hello,
Since updating to Mavericks at work on Monday, I have been unable to use the Three-Way Color Corrector's eyedropper tool on a dual-screen setup in Premiere Pro CC.
I have all of my panels, apart from my Program monitor panel, on one display. When I select the Three-Way Color Corrector's white balance eyedropper and go to the second display where my Program panel is, it turns back into an arrow and doesn't allow me to select anything. When I move my Program panel to the same display as the others it lets me use it as normal. Unfortunately that is not how I work and I would like the program to function as normal.
I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and discovered a solution. I will submit a bug report right now.
Thank you.Hi Punker,
Thanks for posting the workaround. This is a known issue that we're investigating. Fow now the workaround is to:
Goto> System Preferences>Mission Control.
Un-tick "Displays Have Separate Spaces"
Logout or Re-boot system.
The issues should be resolved.
Best,

Laptop mode tools problem with kernel 3.0
today I just updated the system and my laptop runs dramatically hotter after that. I read the archwiki, it does talk about the laptop mode tools problem with kernel 3.0 but when I opened the file /usr/sbin/laptop_mode, the lines which the wiki mentions are not there. Does anyone here have the same problem and can you offer the solution?

# This is a 2 phase locking approach. LMT_REQ_LOCK is the outer lock and LMT_INVOC_LOCK is the inner lock
# We take this approach to ensure the scenario that, "At any point when an event occurs (AC/BATT), the
# kernel can generate multiple events spanning over a couple of events. The first event is honored and
# lmt executes. If the last event triggered at the 9th second, there is a fair chance that a good amount
# of state change would have occured in the OS, to honor that state, we keep an outer lock (LMT_REQ_LOCK)
# handy, so that those changes can also be applied and not forgotten.
# Workflow:
# Event-1 is generated and lmt executes (lmt runtime could span 5-10 seconds)
# At seventh second, 4 events generate. But Event-1 is still running.
# We don't want to discard all the remaining 4 events, but at least honor 1 so that we can act to the changes
# that occured in the last 7 seconds.
# So, Event-2 acquire LMT_REQ_LOCK and waits to acquire LMT_INVOC_LOCK (which is acquire by Event-1)

esacI had the problem but edited the line in /usr/sbin/laptop_mode and it worked. But thoes lines are not there anymore. I guess they changed it at the recent update of laptop-mode-tools.
Regarding your heat problem; is there any other thing you use to cut down power usage (from AUR maybe)? I use acpi_call from AUR had to edit lines there aswell, but it should be updated by now. -
Eyedropper tool isn't working correctly in Levels, Curves adjustments
I have installed PS CS 5 Extended on a new computer running Vista Home Premium. No other version of Photoshop has ever been installed on this system.
The problem that I am encountering is the eyedropper tools in both the curves, and levels adjustment doesn’t work. The actual sliders seem to work appropriately, but clicking an eyedropper and then clicking a spot on the photo has no effect at all on the image.
I do not encounter this problem when I run the 64 Bit version of the program. It only occurs in the standard version of CS5, which I need to continue to use due to plug-in incompatibility with the 64 bit version.
I’ve checked the obvious, and ensured that the “preview” box is checked, and that I have the correct layer selected!
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!!Not sure if it could be coming into play here, but the sample size for the Eyedropper Tool (proper) affects the use of the Eyedropper in other dialogs.
Do this:
1. Click the Eyedropper Tool in the Tools panel.
2. Right-click on the image, and choose Point Sample.
3. Now try your Curves function again.
A second possibility is that you have a small selection made somewhere, and the Curves operation is only affecting that, so you're not seeing the change overall. I know you said you checked everything, but you didn't mention checking for a Selection.
If these are not the issues, I have to wonder whether maybe something's wrong with your display driver. Since OpenGL is involved in making the display, perhaps an OpenGL problem could be blocking the ability for the eyedropper to pick up the color. What video card do you have and what version of the display driver?
You can test for OpenGL issues by temporarily deconfiguring the use of OpenGL Drawing:
1. Edit - Preferences - Performance
2. Uncheck [ ] Enable OpenGL Drawing.
3. OK out and restart Photoshop.
4. Does the problem still occur? If so, a driver update may fix it.
Hope this helps.

The eyedropper tool does not work with a hue saturation adjustment layer
I am using PS CC 2014, and the problem I am having is that when I want to use the eyedropper tool to adjust the colour range affected by a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, rather than selecting the colour in the Properties window for the adjustment layer, use of the eyedropper closes the properties window and changes the foreground colour in my palette.
Here's the real hitch... the same thing happened to me at school last night where a) the Mac's are older and b) CS6 is still used.
It's something with my user settings, to be sure, because the prof logged into his account on the Mac I was using in class to test it out, and it worked for him; we logged back into my account and it still did not work for mine.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any insights.
RPIndeed Trevor, that did solve the problem. Clearly it was something I changed... wish I knew what. But, I have a list of all the settings changes I made before, so I can figure it out by making one at a time then checking...
