Incorrect values when using the color picker? While painting, I use the color picker to pick one of the color on my object. However, the color picker does not pick the exact color that I have selected.



What am I doing wrong?
Viewport colors are affected by lighting and color profile.
To display unchanged colors in the viewport, you need to do two things:


use the Emission shader (it's not affected by lights)
change View Transform to Standard


(Or just open your image texture in Image Viewer and pick color from there.)
