My texture sample tool will only sample colors from the texture item I click on. I’ve visited the styles tab and can’t find a setting to adjust that changes this. My sizing is normal (inches) and not oversized as I’ve seen with others who have apparently had this problem. I’m new to this.
On a Mac that is the proper behavior for the eye dropper on the materials palette. You need to hold command while using the paint bucket to sample SketchUp materials - you’ll see an eye dropper appear and then you can sample around your model.

To elaborate… the sample tool on the materials pallet samples RGB value of a single pixel you click on, color only. However it does do anywhere on the screen, useful for matching colors in other open programs or on an open browser window. @bmike has pointed out how to get to the proper materials sampler tool.
