is there a way to get like a percentage on the eyedropper tool like in krita? in krita i can pick a color, then choose my eyedropper tool to only use 50%, pick another color, and get the perfect and precise middle color between the first and the second one. I tried my best searching this same feature in google but most articles talk about blending two colors instead of this, finding the perfect mix of two colors or more.

I'm not familar with krita, but you can use Filter > Blur > Average to custom blend a color. For example, do the following:

  1. Fill a layer with color A
  2. Make a selection that covers the desired fraction of the canvas
  3. Fill the selection with color B
  4. Add other colors to the canvas, if desired
  5. Go to Filter > Blur > Average
  6. Sample the result with the Eyedropper tool and add it as a new Swatch

thank you so much for the help, though it sounds like it takes a bit more time compared to krita's immediate setting to get the right color mix
