Photoshop: 16 bit color selecting

FatAssasin

If you convert an RGB image to 16 bit and use the eyedropper tool, the info panel still shows the colors as 8-bit, 0 to 255. Any way to get it to show the correct 16-bit value range? I've tried looking at the info panel preferences and didn't see anything useful.

1. Right-click on the tiny eyedropper icon in the Info palette.
2. Choose 16-bit.
3. Send beer to:
69 Trapelo Road
Belmont, MA 02478

Whenever anyone asks me, "Who's the man?". I say, "Eric. Eric Chadwick is the man."

He surely is. If everyone he helped had sent a beer to that address, he'd have been dead from alcohol poisoning years ago.
Go go Chad Ericwick!

I don't seriously expect any, but I just gotta say mmmmmmmm.
