I’m looking for the HSV-Color vormat in Krita. And can’t find it.
It’s in “Settings” >> “Configure Krita” >> “Color Selector Settings”, or if you click on the menu-symbol in advanced color selector docker, it is in the upper left corner of the docker.

I have the HSV in the color settings under setting
Found. But not with the Exact Color Picker. E.g. Was stated at HSV 233,156, 118, which is a light blue. For me it’s a light orange.
Can you upload screenshots that show the problem you’re having?
233, 156, 118 is the RGB value for light orange.

This is why hex codes exist.

I am copying a picture from the Painter Program. Unfortunately it has no hex codes.
What kind of screenshots?
When you see a problem on the application display, take a screenshot and upload it. You can edit the screenshot in krita first to add markers and highlights and text etc if you want to.
People who read your posts can’t see what you see and so have difficulty understanding what the problem is.

The source hex code seems to be #19213f for the blue. Or R=25 G=33 B=63.
as @AhabGreybeard pointed out your placing HSV values inside RGB, that does not work. that is why you have #e3963f as orange there. color values need to be converted when swapping color spaces.
Usually on the internet speaking about color you talk with hex codes or specify your color space and drop the values but that might not always be too clear considering ranges. Hex codes don’t have that issue.
I think I understand what @SooniX wants and needs:
The Specific Colour Selector works with RGB values.
To specify the colour in terms of HSV values, you need the Choose A Colour window. This is not a docker:
I can never remember how to get this easily and I do it by clicking on one of the small coloured squares at the bottom of the Digital Colours Mixer docker.
I hope @EyeOdin or someone knows a more convenient way to get it on-screen.
In that window, you can specify the colour in HSV form but you’ll notice that the S and V values are percentages, not 0-255.
So, with 227, 150, 63 from the colour selector on the other application, you’d have to convert those numbers to percentages, 150/255 and 63/255.
This gets the result shown in the image above and it doesn’t have exactly the same hex code that EyeOdin gave 
Edit:Add: That doesn’t actually change the selected colour. I’ve no idea what’s happening there and I think it’s related to the use of the Digital Colour Mixer docker.
weird color picking the image the original blue I get #164869 XD. This is why i hate when programs dont show values to the users. makes everything stupid.
Well considering the values I did made it with hsv(360,255,255) as the range as 150 > 100 for the saturation that is given.
I do the same thing to get it.
P.S. HSV(227, 150, 63) seems like a cursed color!
Du könntest eine Colorpicker-Software verwenden um dir die Farbwerte aus anderen Programmen ohne HEX-Anzeige (oder ohne irgendwelche Werte) zu holen. Dann sparst du dir das umrechnen in Prozentwerte. Solltest du Windows nutzen würde ich die kostenlose Software Colormania empfehlen, unter den bisher von mir getesteten Colorpickern, hat mir dieses Programm am besten gefallen.

You could use a colorpicker software to get the color values from other programs without HEX display (or without any values). Then you save the conversion to percentages. If you use Windows I would recommend the free software Colormania, among the colorpickers I tested so far, I liked this program best.

Just want to mention that the color picker in krita’s foreground/background color dialog can pick color from the whole screen, so you can just pick color from the window of other applications…
Also, most spinboxes in Krita understand basic math statements, like multiplication and division.
But those HSV values in the screenshot above don’t make much sense to me, the slider positions don’t remotely match the color selector handles.

Danke für Colomania. Leider hab ich nicht herausgefunden, wie sie funktioniert. Ist Deutsch ok?

That’s great! And it is educational too.
It shows how much we are and will be “trained” by our environment. Because of the experiences with other software I used before Krita and the behaviors I was trained with it, I didn’t even try to work with Krita’s Eyedropper outside of Krita and always went back to the software I recommended before - because I assumed Krita can’t do that either!
That’s how much you can hinder yourself, out of a habit.

Edit: Oops! Just tested with 4.4.7 and IT DOES NOT WORK! It accepts only Kritas canvas-area, even the dockers couldn’t be picked.

Du musst das Pipettensymbol mit der Maus anklicken und auf den Punkt ziehen dessen Farbe Du ermitteln möchtest. Um dann eventuell noch präziser einen bestimmten Pixel zu wählen, kann man anschließend im Colormania-Fensterchen unter der Pipette mit der Maus auf den gewünschten Punkt klicken. Siehe auch den angehängten Screenshot.

(Für mich ist deutsch okay, aber da hier auch andere aktiv mitschreiben ist es besser auch die Übersetzung mit anzuhängen, da dies ein Internationales Forum ist. So können alle mitlesen und mitdiskutieren / mithelfen. Du würdest auf mögliche Lösungen verzichten, das kannst Du nicht wollen, oder?
Wenn Du mit Englisch Probleme hast, dann empfehle ich Dir den Übersetzungsdienst von www.deepl.com zu nutzen, es bietet die Hochwertigsten Übersetzungen an. Die Gratisversion kann bei langen Texten während der europäischen Geschäftszeiten (~ 7 Uhr bis 16 Uhr MEZ/MESZ) gelegentlich seltsame Ergebnisse liefern, deren Server sind dann am Limit.)

You have to click on the eyedropper symbol with the mouse and drag it to the point whose color you want to determine. To select a specific pixel even more precisely, you can then click on the desired point with the mouse in the Colormania window below the eyedropper. See also the attached screenshot.

(For me, German is okay, but since others are actively writing here, it is better to attach the translation as well, since this is an international forum. So all can read along and discuss / help. You would miss out on possible solutions, you can’t want that, can you?
If you have problems with English, I recommend you to use the translation service of www.deepl.com, it offers the highest quality translations. The free version can occasionally give strange results for long texts during European business hours (~ 7am to 4pm CET/CEST), their servers are then at their limit.)
You need to use the Internal Color Selector - the one Ahab shows here: HSV -Color Format - #10 by AhabGreybeard - and press that Color Picker button there. You can’t use the Color Picker tool, only the color picker widget in that dialog works this way.
To get the Internal Color Picker easily, just press on one of the two little rectangles of colors with foreground and background colors, that little icon which looks so familiar (for everyone who was raised on MS Paint) that it gets overlooked

Yep, that happens very quickly, especially if you usually only work with the dockers, your own habits make you blind

@tiar. @Michelist The situation is complicated:
The one I showed is called “Choose a Colour - Krita” and I got it via the Digital Colour Mixer docker. Its colour picker works in the windows of other applications.
If you right-click on the little FG/BG colour squares on the Toolbar, that gives you the “Select a Colour - Krita” window (I suspect they are the same) and its colour picker works in other application windows.
For both of them, there is a minor UI bug where the internal layout changes when you go outside the canvas because of a change to 16-bit instead of 8-bit RGB/A representation, of the colour picker real time numerical text.
This varies if you’re using an 8-bit or 16-bit canvas but it always happens.
I’m sure that was reported some time ago but I can’t remember where.

It is a pity that the mistake has not yet been corrected. I emailed Blacksun, but the email went back. I’ll look for something different.
