          Issue ID: 124862
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Font color and shadow color cannot be different
           Product: Draw
           Version: 4.1.0
          Hardware: Mac
                OS: Mac OSX, 10.9
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: editing
          Assignee: [email protected]

In v4.0.1 I was able to set the text to white and add a black shadow effect
(over a red background) via the Shadow checkbox in Format -> Character -> Font
Effects.

After upgrading to v4.1.0, opening the same ODG file created under v4.0.1, the
shadow color is the same as the font color, which makes the text look like a
sloppy mess, not shadowed text.

I tried adjusting the color in both the Format -> Character -> Font Effects
dialog and also from the Font Color tool in the toolbar.  Both of those have
the effect of changing the text and the shadow to the new color, not
differentiating the color of the text and shadow.

Additional note - In v4.0.1 it would have been nice to be able to select the
color for the shadow rather than just black.  That is, in my case where I have
white text on a red background, it would have liked to be able to select a dark
red color for the shadow, rather than a basic black shadow.  Would be great if
a feature like that could be worked in with the bug fix.

Thanks for all the great work you folks do on OpenOffice.
