Photoshop: Eye dropper doesn't sample outside document window
In previous versions you used to be able to sample colors outside of PS. In the latest release this feature is broken.

I believe this changed when we added the HUD to the color picker. It also better respects standard software conventions. As above, activate the Eye-Dropper tool, click within the PS window so the color HUD appears, now drag outside the PS window. There you go.
Have a good one,
David
