Odd Eyedropper Behavior

Here's an odd one I've noticed in the last couple of months.

Every once in a while, the eye dropper icon will disappear from my Color Editor dialog. I'm not sure what's causing it, so I don't have a reliable set of instructions to reproduce it yet. It's possible that it may have something to do with opening a .xar file originally created with an older version, or may have something to do with having a particular object selected when opening the dialog box, or something else entirely.

Has anyone seen anything like this before?

I have noticed that on occasion too Ben. Didn't think too much about it though. So I just used the undo arrow and then looked at the color editor again and the eyedropper would be there.

Actually, I think that's a bug that's been around for years. At the moment, I don't remember what triggers it. If I recall correctly, you may also get the eyedropper back by opening the Color Editor via the color wheel icon beside the color line in the bottom right corner of your Xara window.

Thanks for the tip, I'll try that the next time it surfaces.

In the new Pro 7 version - it's also an issue. Please Xara guys - fix it, please
