Hello Jahzeel I am not able to reproduce the bug on my end, so I'd like to ask a few more questions to see if the problem can't be tracked down further. Does this happen even on a completely new document with only one layer, or is it happening in a specific document? Is your Color Sampler tool set to pick from all layer or just the current? Is the Color Sampler tool's Radius anything higher than 1px or is the Blend less than 100%? If you could attach a demonstration of the bug (a few screenshots or maybe even a video) that might also be very useful. Created attachment 184983 [details] attachment-2918574-0.html Hi!! Thank you very much. Yeah it happens irregularly. I attach 2 videos, one with already existing archives, the other with a new document. As for the settings of the sampler tool, I don't know how to change that so it's on the default mode I guess. I was one day working on a illustration, the one with the strawberries and suddenly it started happening as you will see on the video. I tried to sample a color from the reference and it gave me the wrong one, I assumed it was just a bug or that krita didn't have that color or something, but then it started happening again and again, on any document I oppen, be it new or older ones. I'm very special about the specific colors so it bugs me to no end.

Automatically switching the status to REPORTED so the team can perform further triage. In the future you may also do this yourself when providing needed information. Thank you, those videos demonstrate the issue very nicely. You'll find the Tool Options docker by clicking the tab in the top right corner of your window that says "Opciones de la ...". If you select the Color Sampler tool in the toolbox on the left (by clicking the eyedropper icon) it should show the settings for the color sampler. Could you check that the two sliders are set to 1px and 100%, like in the image here https://docs.krita.org/en/reference_manual/tools/color_sampler.html ? The Radius setting will pick up all the colors from a larger area and produce a mix of them, and the Blend setting mixes the color you sample with the color you have already selected. I just wanna make sure you haven't changed those unintentionally and is what causes the unexpected color :) Created attachment 185030 [details] attachment-3307902-0.html Thank you very much!!! I don't know when that moved but it was on 10 pixels. THANK YOU!!! Sorry for the inconvenience.
