Selection and Eyedropper

Selection and sampling are important when you want to work on existing texture content.

Selecting Texels

Use the Select Tool to isolate the texels that later commands should affect.

Many texture commands follow this rule:

• if texels are selected, only the selection is affected
• otherwise, the full selected texture is affected

Eyedropper

The Eyedropper samples color and material from an existing texel.

You can use it to continue working with colors and materials that are already present in the texture, which is especially useful for cleanup and refinement.

Alt + click can also be used as a quick sampling shortcut while editing.
