How are = you supposed to color correct without knowing whether black is black, = gray is gray and white is white?

I have a = workaround:

Apply = the Tint effect and use the eyedropper to sample your value (or two, = using both boxes).  =46rom there, you have a couple of = options:

1 - = copy the Tint effect and paste it elsewhere, disable the FX button while = keeping the color rectangles revealed, and use the color box to do = another eyedropper sample

2 - after eyedropping the color, click the color rectangle = box and copy the Hex value (#), and paste that into your destination = color value


If I have a color = palette to use throughout a sequence, I=E2=80=99ll make a PNG of it in = Ae, import into Pr, and load that into the Source monitor placed next to = the Effect Controls for eyedropping.

please ask for it here and I will do the same:
