It seems that the middle mouse sample color function is not working on Mac. If you middle mouse on the color swatch widget and you get the sampling cross hairs, but it does not update the color swatch as you move the mouse around.

I am sure I am butchering the proper names of the widgets and functions.

To test this, I switched to the Image desktop, created a compositing network, and a Color node. I tried middling on the color swatch. I have tried this on a shop, a point sop, and a light and consistently the color sampling is not working.

Hi Nathan,

I had the same problem with 9.5 beta. I did a test right now with 9.5.170 and it is behaving the same like yours. At least we have a crosshair cursor now, as it wasn't present in beta builds I tested. I hope it will be resolved soon as it is a very nice feature.
