the Information window.

Select the sample size. For instance, the 1 by 1 option will display the value
of one pixel — the one in the middle of the Color Meter Display. The 3 X 3
option reads the average value of a 3-pixel by 3-pixel area.
To display color information for a pixel or an averaged area:
1. Click on the Color Picker tool.
2. As you pass over a point in the image, see the Information Window — the
RGB values will be displayed in the Color Meter Display. These values are in
turn based on the sample size you selected.
