I'm a Lightroom Classic user normally. For expediency I loaded a new image into Imaging Edge Desktop to make a few basic adjustments. The first adjustment was to set the white balance from a gray card target.

With the image opened in IE's "Edit" window the cursor is what Adobe would call the Hand tool, used to navigate around the image. Using that cursor I navigate to the area of the image where the WB target is located. On the adjustments panel on the right I open the White Balance tab and select "Specify gray point" and choose the Eyedropper. I then click on the target area and the neutral value is calculated and set.

The problem rears up at this point: The Eyedropper (and, hence it's function) persists! I have not found a way to dismiss the Eyedropper and regain the Hand tool in order to navigate to another area of the image to target that portion for additional adjustments.

Can anyone tell me how to get out of a tool selection in IE Desktop?
 
I believe you selected the tool like this:

To unselect the tool press the dropper again it and it will look like this:

Thank you!

I thought I had tried that but, obviously, I hadn't.😳
