That's exactly wha
One exercise in that book I wrote is about using an image as a color picker. It
uses the same technique as Scott mentioned, only I then set the color of
another graphic to show that it has picked up the right color.
One thing to double check, the x and y values you're using, are those from the
I haven't had time to pursue any of this yet, but do you think the gamma
would explain why I'm getting different values with Scott's routine versus
the built-in mouseColor function? Btw, I'm using an imported image that I
haven't modified in any way.
This is all so I can build my own color picker

If you're working with an imported or referenced image, it would probably
better to strip the gamma from the source image all together, using
something like ColorSync Utility or similar -- as mentioned by Tim Bobo --
rather than changing the gamma of the screen. But if you're working with a
snapsh
Try this line before doing the snapshot:
set the screengamma to 2.23
LiveCode changes the values in image data depending on the color settings of
the screen, and doing a snapshot of the card's graphics is likely to lead to
different data.

Hi Howard:
It seems the mouseColor is not functional on iOS in 5.5.1 (but apparently it
has been fixed on Lion which is a huge relief).
That said, if you can work with an image as your color source (ie import a
snapshot if needed), you can use the following function as a workaround
(watch wrap
I'm designing a an IOS app that makes extensive use of determining "the
mousecolor". Everything is working fine in my stack, but when I port it to
the simulator (or create the IOS app), the mousecolor only returns 0,0,0
regardless of where the mouse is.
I found some early posts
to not the hilite of me
if the hilite of me then
set the cursor to cross
set the lockCursor to true
trackColor
end if
end mouseUp
command trackColor
If not the hilite of me then
set the lockCursor to false
exit trackColor
end if
get the mouseColor
et the lockCursor to true
set the backgroundcolor of graphic "Little" to the mousecolor
end Mousemove
on RawKeyDown thekey
set the backgroundcolor of graphic "Big" to the backgroundcolor of graphic
"Little"
pass RawKeyDown
end RawKeyDown
on CloseS
That seems wrong, like something else is going on. Mark S is right, going
across multiple monitors seems to fail, but you should be able to grab color
from anywhere on the screen, not just within LC windows.
Have you tried to make a simple test stack/script that only grabs the
mouseColor
i am on mac 10.7.2 where I see the problem
I just updated my PC to windows 7 and it seems to be working on that system,
but the cursor is constrained to only the livecode windows. Is there a way to
capture the mousecolor outside of the livecode windows? I am setting
lockcursor to true

That's a thought. I'm on Snow Leopard. It works there.

I'm on 5.0.2 on an Intel iMac, it seems to be working here okay.

Can you test in 5.0.2? I believe 5.0.0 has some minor display issues -- not
sure if the mouseColor is one of them, but it seems to be working correctly
here in 5.0.2

Does anyone know if "the mousecolor" feature is working properly in 5.0.0?I
seem to be getting random data returning that is not even close to the color
being selected.
Any advice as to how to capture a color within a picture not using this feature
