Eyedropper
Just click and drag the eyedropper anywhere on the screen to select a new color. Single pixel or 3x3/5x5 average sampling options are available.
Magnifier
This control works exactly like the eyedropper. It can be used to zoom in on an area of the screen. After zooming, you can click in the magnifier view to select a color. The plus and minus buttons can be used to change the magnification level before or after magnifying an area.
Auto-copy to clipboard With this option enabled, the output value will automatically be copied to the clipboard.

Relative position measuring
Press the Control key while dragging the eyedropper and the coordinates will be set to zero (0,0). When you drag the mouse to a new location, the coordinate values will be relative to the point on the screen where you pressed Control.
Color History
The last 7 colors selected will appear in the color history. To select a previous color, simply click on it. Colors can be pushed into the color history by right clicking while eyedropping.
Complementary color palette
42 colors that complement the current color will be generated on the fly.
System tray support
The application can be minimized to the system tray.
