Hello,
I am looking for an eyedropper which can be positioned with the
keyboard (e.g. with the arrows) such that I can manipulate my pictures
with the mouse and watching it. Do you know where can I get such an
utility? (OS Win98SE)

Already many thanks,
Guenter

The only freeware zooming utility I've found that allows you to use the
arrow keys to move the mouse. Includes Screen capture, window / menu
capture, color picker, even a windows spy ! Extremely useful software,
one of my favourites.

Thank you Mario, its really a great program. I just have to find out
how to disconnect the dropper from the mouse mouvement. I need the
mouse to change settings while observing the selected area.

Guenter,

When you're picking a color, MWSnap captures both the keyboard and the
mouse, to enable you to navigate easily to different parts of the
screen. There's no way to change this default behaviour.

Since the color picker remembers upto 10 previously selected colors, a
simple workaround would be to pick your color, change your desired
setting, and then pick the color at the same position again. You can use
the screen co-ordinates displayed in the color picker window to
accurately determine the pixel position.

Regards,
Mario
