Synopsis

This dashboard provides query mechanisms for pixel states. The cursor becomes the query cursor and the pixel for which information is returned is the one under the period at the bottom of the .

Figure 3.5. The Pixel Dashboard

The following items appear in the dashboard. Many of them just provide information without performing any action.

Dashboard Components

width & height

The size in pixels of the current image.

Mouse

The position of the mouse click. If the Scale Factor in the Coordinates dashboard is greater than 1, the mouse position will be measured with a precision less than one pixel width. Of course, it cannot be measured with a precision less than one screen pixel width.

Pixel

The integer position of the queried pixel in columns and then rows.

Color

The red/green/blue values of the queried pixel.

Material

The material properties that have been specified for the selected pixel with the /materials menu. If no properties have been specified, the window will display "default".

Groups

Pixel groups, if any, to which the queried pixel belongs. Pixel groups are assigned with the /pixelgroups menu.

Mark clicked pixel

When highlighted, the queried pixel will be marked the display. Clicking on the Color... button brings up a chameleon for the queried-pixel color.
