    Middle click (or Alt+click / Option+click) should work just fine.

    It still doesnt work.

    I dont understand what was the point of changing the names of the buttons and butting them there so much.

    If you get grey, you need to make your mouse a little bigger, that's a glitch. If you're in the deco menu, alt or middle click should both sample colors.

    Things weren't changed at all with the deco editor. Everything in the old tpt was deleted except for the update and drawing code, and rewritten in c++. It could have been re-added as the old way, but this new way is much better (except for maybe the DIV/MUL, just don't use those)

    I know, the 4 new buttons do different things depending on what color you have selected (as described in the first posts). I think with white selected, they act similar to how lighten and darken did (or maybe it was ADD/SUB that did?). I just don't use them, but for people that know how, they are better.

    It has changed afterwards to a different approach, don't worry. The left side has now got "Favourite colours" with defaults and the middle has a colour picker like it used to.

    WHoa whoa whoa. I have the old deco thing, with the squares that you click and then can change the color. I didn't miss an update :/

     

    Edit: NEVER MIND! I was being really stupid for a second there :P
