The eyedropper tool is used to select colors from within the current image. Clicking 

with the left mouse key selects the foreground color. In Windows, clicking with the 
right mouse key selects the background color. On the Macintosh, using 

Control+click selects the background color. 
 

 
These two items are used to select the foreground and/or background color to be 
used by the tools in the Image Editor. If you are working on a color image the 

choices available will the standard Windows or Macintosh color dialogs. If you are 
working on a grayscale image, you will see a “slider” which allows you to select from 

0 to 100% gray. Finally, if you are working on a black & white image, the choices are 
limited to simply black or white. An example of the color selection dialog for 

Windows is shown below. The Macintosh color selection dialog will vary widely 
depending on OS version and color management settings. 

 

 

 

Note: In Windows using the left mouse button will apply the current foreground color to the 

pencil, brush, line, rectangle and ellipse tools. Using the right mouse button applies the 
current background color. On the Macintosh these tools will use the foreground color unless 

you hold the control key while clicking with the mouse, which will cause them to use the 

background color.
