Hi! It's working for me, could you provide more details, for example following this issue template: https://github.com/stevemao/github-issue-templates/blob/master/simple/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md

Shemesh, Inspect activation has changed if you are using the M key to activate. Inspect is now active only while M key is pressed. See conversation in #18
Otherwise the eyedropper is working for me - Windows 10 and Brave

• loading .th2 into https://beta.wtherion.daemonw.com/
• make sure tool "item select" (black arrow) is working
• select the inspect tool (eyedropper)

result:
it does nothing

I'm asking this once again, could you provide some information in your issue like a normal bug report? If you don't know what that looks like, you should use this issue template:

sorry, i thought that was clear enough.
here:
Expected Behavior: use inspect tool to choose an item to see its properties
Actual Behavior: using the inspect tool i'm unable to select nothing, inspect tool does nothing.
Steps to Reproduce the Problem:

• loading .th2 into https://beta.wtherion.daemonw.com/
• make sure tool "item select" (black arrow) is working
• select the inspect tool (eyedropper)

Platform: https://beta.wtherion.daemonw.com/

Yes I think you're expecting to be able to select something, when with Inspect you just hover over things and it shows details in the status bar - the bottom right corner.

[Shemesh]

oh, ok.
well... this is a weird ux and unexpected behavior, plus it does not bring any real added value.
my suggestion:

• the data in the status bar to be always active, no matter which tool i use
• the inspect tool will select an item and show its properties.

[Shemesh]

in addition to my suggestions above i suggest the inspect info will also show in which scrap is the item.
