That is exactly what I was thinking about. For example, I have a text with color and shadow, then I add 10 more text later and then I would like to use the eyedropper to match the file one.

Of course at first, you could select all text and give them all the same properties, but when you decide to add additional elements, that would be practical.

I suppose we could also use it to match sizes or rotation for example.

Glad you have it on the drawing board.

Thanks Elaine!

And thanks for the new version too!

Hey, resdesign-

What type of properties are you looking to update with an eyedropper tool? I already have a feature request logged in our system for introducing an eyedropper tool to be able to pick up colors, both from within Animate as well as from other programs.

You add an element and you want it to have the same properties as another one already on the stage. It would be nice to be able to use the eyedropper to copy these properties to the new element.
