### 7.7. Sample Points Dialog

While the Color Picker can display color information about one pixel, the «Sample Points» dialog can display the data of four pixels of the active layer or the image, at the same time. Another important difference is that the values of these points are changed in real time as you are working on the image.

#### 7.7.1. Активація вікна

This dialog is a dockable dialog; see the section Розділ 2.3, «Dialogs and Docking» for help on manipulating it.

Доступ до вікна можна отримати так:

- from the main menu: Windows → Dockable Dialogs → Sample Points.

- за допомогою меню вкладки у будь-якому швартованому вікні шляхом натискання кнопки меню вкладки і вибору пункту Додати вкладку → Зразкові точки.

#### 7.7.2. Using sample points

To create a sample point, Ctrl-click on one of the two measure rulers of the image window and drag the mouse pointer. Two perpendicular guides appear. The sample point is where both guides intersect. You can see its coordinates in the lower left corner of the status area at the bottom. Release the mouse button.

The image shows four already defined sample points and the reticle when you press Ctrl on a measure ruler and then click and drag.

Sample points are shown as a round mark with an order number. You can hide these marks by unchecking View → Show Sample Points in the main menu.

The «Sample Points» dialog does not automatically open when you create a sample point.

To move or delete a sample point:

- Using the Color Picker tool, click-and-drag the sample point up to a measure ruler to delete it.

- Using a paint tool, Ctrl + click-and-drag the sample point up to a measure ruler to delete it.

By default, sampling is performed on all layers. If you want to sample on the active layer only, uncheck Sample Point Menu → Sample Merged from the tab menu.
