ColorAtScreenLoc Function

[Ray]

Hey Klaus, that  actually works quite well and it's a lot easier than 
wrestling with the imageData of a snapshot.  I wonder why the 
screenMouseLoc is not mentioned as a related item in the documentation 
for the mouseLoc?

Thanks,

Ray

Simply pass it a point and get the color of that pixel, kind of like a combination of the mouseColor function and the controlAtScreenLoc function.  I'd be happy if it only worked for points on Livecode stacks.  I've tried 'click at loc [myPoint] and then getting the mouseColor but it doesn't work.
