yes, there is a color picker. it is in the fill tool palet. i use it alot. click on the eyedropper and select your color from the shape u want. shading is done in the style palet on the right side. u will see where it says effect 1 and 2, choose either and select shading, u will get a sub-menu where u can select different options like light direction.

edit: u beat me to it steve, actually u don't need to select the shape first for the color picker, it will work w/o any shape select even across different layers.

Switch layers are bound by layer binding. See manual.

The manual can be found in the help drop-down menu at the top. There are some examples in the quick-start manual that can be useful to you. The manga video I was thinking of was manga studio webinar. It has a professional cartoonist showing his workflow in manga from draft to inking.
