Labs Sample Screen Colors

This tool is part of the FREE and open-source toolset in Houdini called SideFXLabs. The Sample Screen Colors option is available when using the RMB click on the color ramp tab and allows you to sample screen color by holding LMB and dragging anywhere on your screen(s). This makes it very easy to sample a variety of colors from images. This can be used to drive all sorts of effects.
