                    Picker tool doesn't work; enable option to pick by
                    just clicking)
           Product: krita
           Version: 4.1.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

  Target Milestone: ---

If you select the color picker from the toolbar, it doesn't pick colors from
Reference Image the way that quick color picker (ctrl + click) does. Also it
would be nice to have an option to pick colors from Reference Image without
holding ctrl (but as an option).

Reproducible: Always.

Steps to reproduce:

A. Color Picker Tool:

1. Open new document, color it to two colors (X and Y), add a reference photo.
1. Choose Color Picker Tool.
2. Click on Reference Image (repeatedly, on top of both colors).

Actual results:
3a. When on color X, color picker prints out (in Tool Options docker) that
specific color and updates current color to it. When on the other color (Y), it
prints out different values and updates current color to it. When on various
parts on Reference Image, it prints out different values (different than X and
Y and usually picked colors differs from themselves), but the current color
remains not updated.

Expected results:
3b. Current color is updated to the new value picked from Reference Image.

B. Picking by just clicking (the way it worked in Reference Docker):

1. Open new document, add a reference photo.
2. Click on reference photo.

Actual results:
3a. Painting behind the Reference Image.

Expected results:
3b. Option to pick colors from Ref. Image with just clicking; when
selected/checked, after clicking it should update the current color to the
color picked from the Reference Image.

A is very much needed, B is (for me) a nice addition, but should be optional
because this functionality might be confusing.
