I'm trying to trace some artwork for my control panel. I tried using the eyedropper to get the color from a jpeg, but it doesn't register. Then I try to use the eyedropper on a layer that I drew and it works. Does Illustrator now allow you to get colors from jpegs?

I don't think so - I believe it's only for shapes. I usually have photoshop open at the same time and use that - copy and paste the jpeg into photoshop and note the RGB values.

Thanks for the info....But shame on me. I think you stated how to do it in yout tutorial and I forgot. Either way, it sucks that you can't do it in Illustrator alone.

You need to hold down "shift" when you try to use the eyedropper on a JPG, Tiff, etc... maybe it isn't shift, but it's one of the modifier keys.
