Color Picker function in Gimp, Geany or Gpick doesn't work in Ubuntu 17.10.

Are there any known workarounds for this problem?

This is an issue with the default Wayland session in Ubuntu 17.10, it seems this feature is not implemented yet (see this bug report).

As a workaround you may switch back to an Xorg session.
