Track Information
The Track Info function displays graphic information for image files. Use the View > Toolbar > Track Info menu to turn it on or off.
Track Info displays color information (RGB: red, green, blue, I: color table index, from 0 to 255, also the hexadecimal code) of the pixel where the cursor is pointing as well as the cursor location (X, Y) and image size (width, height).
The Track Info command is only available when an image file is in the active Preview window.
The hexadecimal color code is often used in HTML source code for displaying the color. There are two letters each representing the Red, Green, and Blue colors respectively.
