  Info Panel color values

  Posted by Bartek Skorupa on April 9, 2011 at 10:54 am

  RTFM??? Well… I have, but still…
  Could anyone tell me:
  What am I being shown in the info panel when I hold down Cmd key?
  I have a pixel with the alpha less then 100%. Info panel shows me color and alpha values of the pixel.
  When I hold down shift – the values change and I figured out that those are the values of the colors that are the result of mixing them with the background color.
  But what is displayed when I hold down Cmd (or Ctl on PC)?
  Values change, but what are they?

  See “Select a color with the eyedropper tool”:

  “To sample the color average of a 5-pixel-by-5-pixel area, Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command-click (Mac OS) the area.”
