D. Sample Display Area
This shows a pixelized display of the area surrounding the cursor. The size of the
sample area depends on the selection made in the Color Meter Options.
E. Color Meter Options
These options let you choose how color information is displayed — in numbers
or percentages.
To use the Color Meter Options, click the Color Meter
Options button to choose your setting from the drop-
down menu that appears.
Value and Percent
• If
Value
is chosen, the numbers represent values in the
0-to-255 pixel scale regardless of the bit depth of
your output image.
• If
Percent
is chosen, the numbers represent the
percentage of intensity.
Color Meter Options
The Color Meter options let you choose the size of your sample display area. For
instance, if you choose 5 x 5 as your sample area, this means your RGB value will
represent color information for a 5-pixel by 5-pixel area. If you choose 1 x 1 (the
default), the color information pertains to a single pixel — the pixel in the middle
of the sample area.
