Ray, This 'workaround' may work for you until the next release…
on mouseDown put mouseColourWorkAround (the mouseLoc) into tColour answer tColour -- Or do whatever you need with tColour end mouseDown function mouseColourWorkAround pLoc lock screen import snapShot from rect ( item 1 of pLoc & "," & item 2 of pLoc & "," & \ item 1 of pLoc + 1 & "," & item 2 of pLoc + 1) of this card put the imageData of the last image into tData delete the last image put charToNum (char 2 of tData) & "," & \ charToNum (char 3 of tData) & "," & \ charToNum (char 4 of tData) into tValue unlock screen return tValue end mouseColourWorkAround Works fine for me in a mouseDown, but maybe a little OTT for a mouseMove.
