Hi1. Select the Color Picker (Eye Dropper).2. Click Color 1.3. Select a color from the Pallette.4. Select Color 2.5. Select the second color from the Pallette.6. Select a Brush from the Brushes drop down.7. When you use the left Mouse Button, you will get Color 1.8. When you use the Right Mouse Button, you will get Color 2.While you are painting, you can select the Color Picker at any time to change either color 1 or 2.

As always you make everything so comlicated i don't want a color from the Pallette i want a customize color that is why i'm using the Eye Dropper let me explaine what i usually do what i usually do with the painter and the eye dropper is to hide text for example this picture: http://support.roboform.com/php/rtss/files/ca2844b594584e065de9b8396e1c5757/1.jpg Usually in the middle there is black text what i did was to sample the color of an empty area then took a shape a sqare a rectenguler what ever when the outline and the inside are the same color and in full color and this is how i delete things from pictures i want to upload but in this new painter i can't just use the eye dropper on color one and color two no i need to choose color one then copy the numbers from it Pallette to color 2 Pallette which is not very comftarball. i hope you understand all that. thanks in advance.

i can understand that you never thoughet that someone would want to use the eye dropper for bote colors.

only now i'v understood something you didn't said you said select color from the Pallette which is not what i wanted but now i'v realize that you could take color from the picture using the color picker by choosing it and no matter what color is chosen by right clicking or left clicking you can take color from the picture and i got to say that this option is extremly vage it's not explained anyware and the strange problem is that by pressing the left button i choose color for color one and when i press right button i choose color for color two which is reverse from the logical order at least for right to left users such as my self who use hebrew os and hebrew painter but still i think that most people would think i choose color one then press left key i choose color two then press left key again they would never in a milion years think that it doesn't matter what color you choose it's the right and left buttons who choose the color. did you understand the problem in windows 7 painter you can't choose the color manually you have to use right and left keys and when you convert this need to hebrew painter left is right and right is left left button choose color for right color number 1 and right button choose color for left color color 2.
