Here is a widget that is used in dreamweaver and might be a good layout to
copy. I am not sure how hard will this be in OOo but we could do something
like this:

So I would like to improve the color table, I think the current color
table is too poor compared to graphic software like scribus or karbon.
The colors showed by OOo are too narrow to follow. Before pushing the
color table to at least a decent ammount of color and also rename the
colors to a more appealing palette. I would also like to know why there
hasn't been any push to change this. Is there a technical limitation or
is it just because this colors are safe for printing and viewing on the
screen?
There might be a problem in the fact, that the colors are often used in
drop-down-lists. Currently we have up to 130 colors in the lists. Does
the user want to scroll through more than 600 colors, for example?
There is no technical problem. You can test it easily. Save the
standard.soc with a new name, open this and another palette file in an
editor and copy all the elements
<draw:color draw:name=".." draw:color=".." />
together. Mixing standard.soc and html.soc that way gives a nice palette.
The real problem is not to get a lot of colors, but to arrange them in a
good way.
kind regards
Regina
