Cursor offset problem in Pixeur or Pixie?
Programs to check the colour of a particular pixel are really useful. But I found that both Pixeur and Pixie weren't working properly: the problem was that the magnifier would show an area well offset from the mouse position.
The cause? I had my display set to enlarge text etc to 125%.- and it seems that these programs don't make allowance for any such adjustment.
Resetting to 100% got rid of the offset.
A sad choice - between being able to use these handy programs, and having nice large text that makes for relaxed reading by older eyes.
