- At first I tried the trick with dragging eyedropper, as in Flash 5 (very simple way).
- Then i tried to use a eyedropper.
Update solution
I still can not believe that this is the quickest way, I’m sad 🙁
- Select object
- Select slider in Gradient panel
- Eyedropper tool — Shift+Click
Or second way, thx joojaa.
Answer
The tool will not become active in Illustrator so it can not do this the way you like. But you get almost the same effect with one drag and click more:
- After you click with the color picker, drag that color from the color well into the gradient. This will reactivate the new gradient that is what you want.
Admittedly this is a bit inferior but its the best you can do. In case of not sampling a image you can just drag and drop the object in.
