After setting the Color Sampler locations in PS7, is there a way to snap the cursor precisely to the locations? Thanks.

Snapper,

You can indeed, but it’s a little backwards. As you’ve probably noticed, the eyedroppers themselves become invisible when some of the tools are selected.

First lay down guides that intersect where you want your eyedroppers to be. Then place the droppers, which will snap nicely to the guides provided you have the "View>Snap to" menu option set appropriately.

Now you can snap the cursor to the same guides that you used to place the eyedroppers.

Happy snapping!
