Pick colors from your screen

The application offers you the possibility to view a magnified region of your desktop directly in the main window. You can quickly capture a specific color and view the corresponding RGB and HEX values. The information can be copied to the clipboard so you can paste it into other third-party tools.What’s more, you can check out details about the current mouse coordinates and set the preferred zoom level by moving the built-in slider. Tests have pointed out that Pixel Tracker eats up from a low up to a moderate amount of CPU and memory resources. On the downside, it has not been updated for a long time so it may cause compatibility issues on newer operating systems like Windows 10 and 8.

Final remarks

To sum things up, Pixel Tracker comes packed with basic features for helping you pick colors from your desktop. It needs several enhancements until it can be called a reliable app.
