You know you’re supposed to customize your color palette to match your organization’s branding. You know you can find your color codes in your existing style guide. But what if you don’t have a style guide? Or can’t find it because it’s buried within your intranet someplace?

You can choose colors or you can match existing colors using PowerPoint's eyedropper tool. The good news is, the tool is incredibly easy to use.

On PCs, you can find eyedroppers within newer versions of PowerPoint and Word. But not in Excel, sadly. Microsoft still hasn’t figured out that its millions of users actually want to make good-looking, customized graphs and that we’re fed up with dated default settings.

Tell Your Eyedropper Which Types of Color Codes to Identify

Right-click on the Instant Eyedropper icon and select HTML, Hex, RGB, etc. If you’re going to be using Excel, then you’ll want RGB codes. RGB stands for red, green, blue and it’s the recipe of red, green, and blue that get mixed together to produce the colors in your logo.

Hover Over Your Colors

Let’s pretend that I wanted to visualize data for the Alabama Power Elevate Movement, where I recently led a three-day workshop and keynoted their conference for the Foundation’s grantees. I pulled up their website. Then, I clicked on the Instant Eyedropper icon from my System Tray. I held down my mouse and hovered over the purple section of the website.

Within seconds, the eyedropper tells me that their purple is a 148, 97, 170. I would do the same thing for the teal, yellow, red, and green. Then, I would enter those codes into my software program. I’ll teach you where to enter your color codes next time. It’s easy.

Readers, there are dozens of eyedroppers available. Which ones are your favorites, and why?

The pick-up eye-dropper darkens when clicking on an object, indicating that styles (font, color, spacing, etc.) have been 'picked up.' However, the 'Apply' tool will not darken, will only stay 'grayed out.' It's very frustrating because this was a fantastic feature that really enhanced productivity. If I'm on a heavy deadline, I'll just handle production in 2004, and finish off the project in 2008.

Hi,

I was able to get both 'Pickup' and 'Apply' buttons to work in
PowerPoint 2004, but not in PowerPoint 2008. You seem to have
identified a genuine bug. You can report this problem to Microsoft using
either version of PowerPoint and using the Help menu's feedback option.

On the other hand, I think the Format Painter button on the standard
toolbar is actually a better feature to accomplish this. Double-click on
the format painter and you can apply the same formatting to each object
you click in succession.
