Colora seems to not sample colors anymore. It worked for a few days and then stopped. Upon sampling a color, the mouse merely activates the window it was sampling, and no color swatch appear in the History panel. I uninstalled and reinstalled, but it still seems broken. Any advice?
UPDATE: I can't even sample colors from the Colora window itself. The only area it allows me to sample is the Add to History button. In the attached video I'm clicking everywhere on the Colora window, but the only place where it starts sampling is the Add to History button.
The current version of Colora does not provide the possibility to sample a color from the screen by clicking on the desired position with the mouse. There are currently these options to sample a color:
use the system-wide keyboard shortcut: this is Ctrl+Alt+C by default but you can configure it in the settings. Your current settings is displayed in the status bar when starting to sample.
press Enter as long as the Color window is activated
Is one of these options not working for you?
However, if you wish to have an option to sample a color by mouse clicking, I could add this as a feature request.
