Why did you remove the option to invoke the eyedropper by holding a finger anywhere on the canvas and then tapping with the pencil??  This was my preferred method for quickly picking colors and now it's gone.  Please bring back this option.

Could you show me that on video? Turn on Preferences > Interface > Visualize Touches before recoding.

Do you use Finger Function: Eyedropper, or just long-press Eyedropper?

that's the point, there's nothing to show.  The option is gone from the preferences.  There used to be an option where you could touch anywhere on the screen with a finger and it would color sample what was under your pencil.  That no longer exists, or if it does I can't find it.

It is still there:
Preferences > Gestures > Finger Function: Eyedropper

We will fix so it will work line before - so it will allow to use Pencil.
