No magnifying glass. It closes each time I select a color so I'm constantly re-clicking the eyedropper. Too tedious for my use.

Contrary to other reviews I found nothing untoward. Too basic for me however: after picking a color I need it to deliver corresponding colors along a brightness range (or saturation range or color range). Ergonomy is also a bit flawed: instead of serial picks for ~8 colors one has to reactivate the interface each time. The tool only stores the picked colors and lets you copy the numerics. Don't look elsewhere if that will do for you.
