color picker tool

[977]

hi all

i like this color so i'm using the color picker tool, so lets keep it straightforward;

i click on "color picker tool"
then i click somewhere in the image of the color i want

now where does that color go?

in the left pane, in the middle, theres 2 squares which say foreground color/background color, i click there and i don't see the color i just chose

in the right pane, theres "color history" and i dont see it there neither

this sucks! where is my color

if it helps you, using gimp 2.10.18

thx
