Picking up the color of an existing image

If an existing image uses a color that you want to reproduce exactly, you can use the eyedropper to copy that color.

To pick up the color of an existing image:

1	Select the eyedropper in the Tools window:
2	In the image that contains the color you want, click the color to pick it up.
	Tip: When picking up a color from a pattern, wallpaper, or gradient, it's a good idea to zoom in until you see the exact pixel you want to select.
3	Select a painting tool and paint a new image with the color you picked up.

Applying the attributes of one image to another

You can apply all the attributes of one part of a painting to another part.

To pick up all image attributes:

1	Select the area you want to change.
2	Move the selected image over the image whose attributes you want to pick up.
3	Choose Pick Up from the Transform menu.
4	If you like, move the selected image back to its original location, or to another location.
