Description frederikretsema 2003-11-02 10:10:49 UTC 
Colorpalettes have the same colors on different places, this works confusing. 
F.e: in writer: styles>modify>background there are 10 colors on each line, so 
light-gray is the 9th (one-but-last) color on this line. On the titlebar, the 
backgroundcolor has 8 colors on each line, so light-gray is the first color on 
the second bar. This is confusing, because the boxes on this palette are rather 
small. Please choose for 8 or 10 colors on a line and stick to this through the 
whole application.

Hi FrederikRetsema

thanks for using and supporting OpenOffice...

I opened OOo Writer, selected default in the stylist (Page Styles) and 
chose "modify"...
By selecting "Format" -> "Page" I got the same Colorpalettes...

I don't see the described behaviour...

See the zip-file with two bitmaps: first open 1_style.bmp and read 
the comments, then open 2_font.bmp and read the comments about the 
place where I expected to be light-gray and where it actually was.

I use OpenOffice 1.1.0.

Hi FrederikRetsema,

thanks for your response...

Now I can see what you meant...

I don't think this is a defect but it would be nicer to have the same
colorpalette layout for all colorpalettes in Office...

I'm going to change this to an enhancement the next days...

utomo > MCI:
we can say this is usability defect. 
meanwhile we also can say it is enhancement. 

please decide, change status and assign. 
Thanks

Duplicate of Issue 85895 - Match color palette layout for editing and viewing

To manage the many suggestions for enhancing the color palette, I have created a
meta-issue here:
Issue 105642 - Re-design and UI improvements for color palettes (meta-issue)

The purpose of the new issue is for management only, it does not duplicate
specific design requests (that we wish to capture).

Many thanks,
Andrew
