Description garyap 2009-05-18 16:25:47 UTC 
Many drawing programs (e.g. Inkscape) have a function to match colors that
already exist in the document.  Often it's represented by an eyedropper icon. 
Using the eyedropper cursor, one clicks on a point or drags over a region, and
the color of that point (or average color for a region) is displayed.  Or
better, transferred directly to a selected object.  I'm importing files created
elsewhere, and not having this feature has stopped me cold in my project.

Surely this functionality exists, but I just haven't found it, in which case I
apologize.

Surely this is a duplicate request, but I just haven't found it, in which case I
apologize.

Changed to enhancement.
Comment 2 ace_dent 2009-10-07 18:35:10 UTC 
Amended Summary slightly.

To manage the many suggestions for enhancing the color palette, I have created a
meta-issue here:
Issue 105642 - Re-design and UI improvements for color palettes

The purpose of the new issue is for management only, it does not duplicate
specific design requests (that we wish to capture).

Many thanks,
Andrew
