How to use Pick a Color in a WebP
- 1. Load the WebP to sample. Drop or browse for the WebP image you want to pick a color from. The preview loads the full picture so you can locate the pixel you need.
- 2. Set the pixel coordinates. Enter Pixel X and Pixel Y for the exact location you want sampled, counting from the top-left corner of the image. Zoom into the preview first to pin down the right spot.
- 3. Read the color values. Review the reported hex, RGB, HSL and CMYK values for that pixel, then copy whichever format matches what your design tool, code or print job needs.
When to use Pick a Color in a WebP
Pick a Color in a WebP reads the exact color of any single pixel and reports it in hex, RGB, HSL and CMYK at once. It is for matching a color from a real photo rather than guessing it by eye.
- Matching a brand color from a photo. A logo's exact shade only exists as a color in a product photo, not as a documented hex code, and sampling that pixel recovers the precise value needed for reuse.
- Getting a CMYK value for a print job. A print vendor asks for a CMYK color value rather than hex, and sampling the relevant pixel from a source image provides that print-ready format directly.
- Checking a UI color against a screenshot. A developer wants to confirm a rendered button matches its intended hex value, and sampling the exact pixel from a screenshot verifies the color pixel by pixel.
