V17 Pipette Tool doesnt work

Hi,

unfortunately, the pipette in V17 no longer works. No matter which color I choose, black or white is the result. I had no problems in V16.

I hope you can help me.

Thank you! :-)

There are many options for choosing a pipette, which one are you talking about?

Unfortunately in all Vegas Plugins with Pipette. Like in the video.

The Vegas pipette works OK here too. I noticed that you have HOS installed. Have you tried ColorCop? Under mode you can select RGB float, drag the CC pipette to the desired location, stop the drag, which automatically copies it into clipboard and then paste it into Vegas. Once pasted, click on Tab and the selected color will appear. I'm certainly not recommending this approach, but it would tell you if it's something in Vegas or something in your Windows setup since CC is an external app.

So, I tested the HOS ColorCop and with this tool I can pick the right color. I reinstalled Vegas, but that didn't help. The pipette at Vegas16 now has the same problem. I'm assuming it is down to some Windows thing or driver thing ...
