Eyedrop Tool

Is there an issue with the eyedrop tool? It seems when i try to pull a color with the tool, the color the eyedrop tool hovers over is the wrong color in its preview box. Anyone else have this issue?

    You're not the first... see: 

    There's several workarounds and the apparent cause is that you are probably working on multiple monitors. What works for me is to do a quick screenshot of the colors I want, note the color codes displayed in SnagIt (which I used for the screenshots), and then enter those manually in SL. Kinda lengthy but it works.

    You can also move everything to the primary screen of your laptop/desktop and that should also resolve the issue.
