The Color Picker Tool is used to select a color on any image opened on your screen. By clicking a point on an image, you can change the active color to that which is located under the pointer. By default, the tool works on the active layer, but the Sample Merge option lets you grab the color as it is in the image, resulting of the combination of all layers. Only colors in visible layers are used. An Info window opens when you click on the image.
You can get to this tool in several ways :
In the image menu through Tools → Color Picker.,
by clicking the tool icon in Toolbox,
by pressing the O keyboard shortcut,
by pressing the Ctrl key while using a paint tool. The Color-picker dialog is not opened during this operation and the tool remains unchanged after releasing the key. Nevertheless, you can get information by using the Pointer window.
Ctrl does nothing here. But, when using a paint tool, pressing Ctrl allows you to pick colors without having to switch to Color Picker tool.
