User reviews
Not sure if bug but years ago things just worked! Developing on local server on local IP and I get "Sorry, but eyedropper is not allowed on this web page". Color picker settings -> "Allow access to file urls" displays greyed out view permissions. Chrome browser is setup with "Allow access to file URLs". For years these extensions and plugins worked fine. In recent years, most are broken as are a lot of things now days!
