When I use the eyedropper, the color selected always go to the background instead of the foreground, tehn I need to press X everytime I use the ALT to inverrt the foreground with the background, somebody knows how fix it? I want the eyedropper send the color to the foreground (default).... And I donīt know how to reset settings.

Welcome to the forum.

If you look at the two colour boxes either the foreground box or the background box will have an 'active' square around it, this is the current box that the selected colour will go to. Just click on the opposite box to reverse.
