Hi all, I have a problem.

When im using a brush and want to grab a color by "ALT" + klick, it grabs the color to the backgroundcolor instead for the foreground color. I then have to klick x to switch colors so that I can paint with the color I just grabbed. It is really annoying and time consuming, wasnt like this when I first installed ps CS. Does anyone have a solution for my problem, really trying to avoid reinstalling ps. Have looked in some ps settings and keyboard shortcuts but didnt come up with anything.

Thanks in advance!

Found the solution. Under window / color, the background color was selected, it then samples the color to the backgroundcolor. When you select the foreground color it samples to the foreground.
