Hye,
How to get the color of the sample in my cursor for example? The color of a point of the surface? I eard about using the new function called colorAtPoint... But I don't know how to use it because it refer to uv and not to color (I'm annoying). Or also, how to get the uv coord of the space point ?

1001 Thanks

the command is great for sampling the alpha values of fluids to make spray on waves etc, but if you want to sample the colour manually (which i'm guessing u don't :( ) you can use the colour picker in the colour wheel window.

interesting problem tho.
