If I could actually select the drop-shadow it would be a start.

It should be selectable. You would not be able to select the pixels.
Surely if the drop-shadow was a bitmap I *would* be able to select the pixels?
But you should be able to select the object - the raster image.
Nope...clicking on any part just selects the entire thing.
(Status bar will say "Image....") Just move the whole thing to the side, temporarily. After you get the color from it, you can delete it.
If you can't select it alone, check the status bar. I would guess it says "Group....". So Ungroup, deselect everything, and try to select it again.
Useful, thanks. But Ungroup has no effect.
It's weird. I've used Inkscape on and off for years to fix vector graphics, and never had this problem.
Thanks so much for all your help.
