Sample a color to use as a stroke or fill color
Use the Eyedropper tool 
to
sample a color from an image.
If the correct attribute is not already active, do one
of the following:
Click the stroke icon next to the
Stroke Color box in the Tools panel to make it the active attribute.
Click the fill icon next to the Fill Color box in the Tools
panel to make it the active attribute.
Note: Do not click the color box itself. If you
do, the eyedropper pointer appears instead of the Eyedropper tool.
Open a Fireworks document or any file that Fireworks can
open.
Select the Eyedropper tool from the Colors section of the
Tools panel. Then set the Color Averaging Sample setting in the
Property inspector:
- 1-pixel
- Creates a stroke or fill color from a single pixel
- 3x3 Average
- Creates a stroke or fill color from the average of color
values in a 3-by-3-pixel area
- 5x5 Average
- Creates a stroke or fill color from the average of color
values in a 5-by-5-pixel area
Click the Eyedropper tool anywhere in the document.
The
sampled color appears in all Stroke Color or Fill Color boxes throughout Fireworks.
